It’s been complete dominance at SoFi Stadium on this Monday night, as the Chargers lead the Raiders at the half, 21-0.
Following Donald Parham’s touchdown catch, Los Angeles extended their lead with a 10-yard TD reception from tight end Jared Cook in the second quarter. This marks Cook’s first touchdown as a Charger.
