As the Los Angeles Chargers gear up for the 2025 NFL season, second-year defensive lineman Justin Eboigbe looks to leverage his added size and experience to make a significant impact. Selected in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, Eboigbe had a quiet rookie season, appearing in five games with minimal statistics.

Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, however, has been optimistic about Eboigbe's development. After gaining over 20 pounds and training rigorously with the team's strength coach, Eboigbe is poised to benefit from a defensive scheme that elevated the Chargers from 24th in points allowed in 2023 to the league's top defense in 2024. With an offensive-minded draft aimed at enhancing support for Pro Bowl quarterback Justin Herbert, the Chargers are keen to continue their defensive dominance, potentially giving Eboigbe more opportunities to shine in 2025.

Rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey did not play for the Los Angeles Chargers in their matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs due to knee and shoulder injuries, marking his first missed game this season.

McConkey has had an impressive season, ranking third among NFL rookies with 58 receptions and fourth with 815 receiving yards, along with four touchdown catches.

Several other players were also inactive for both teams, including notable names like Clyde Edwards-Helaire for the Chiefs.

The Los Angeles Chargers faced skepticism regarding their 2024 draft class, particularly the choice of tackle Joe Alt over top wide receivers following the release of Keenan Allen and Mike Williams.

However, twelve weeks into the season, the Chargers' decisions appear validated. Their draft picks, which include key players like Ladd McConkey and Junior Colson, have contributed positively to the team's performance.

Brent Sobleski of Bleacher Report praised the Chargers' draft class as the fifth-best in the league, highlighting the alignment with head coach Jim Harbaugh's vision and the solidification of their offensive line in front of quarterback Justin Herbert.

The Tennessee Titans and Los Angeles Chargers are preparing for their Week 10 clash, but both teams face challenges with several players ruled out due to injuries.

The Titans will be without cornerback L’Jarius Sneed for the fourth consecutive game, alongside linebacker Cedric Gray and running back Joshua Kelley, who is a healthy scratch. The Chargers will miss cornerback Kristian Fulton and several others as well.

Kickoff is scheduled for 3:05 p.m. CT on FOX.
