Here are some live updates from the Las Vegas Raiders home game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday:
What a bad start for new Raiders’ quarterback Geno Smith. On his first play as a Raider at home, Smith threw a bad interception and the Chargers got the ball inside the Raiders’ 30-yard line.
The Las Vegas defense did hold, forcing a three and out and a field-goal attempt. The Chargers converted a 38-yarder to make it 3-0.
The Raiders came back and tied the game on a 54-yard field goal by Daniel Carlson. The drive featured a 13-yard run by rookie running back Ashton Jeanty — the best run of his young career to this point — and a 20-yard pass play from Smith to rookie Dont’e Thornton on third and five. Former Raider Khalil Mack did sack Smith on the drive.
Raiders’ cornerbacks Eric Stokes both had early pass breakups. It continued their good start to the season from last week.
