Watch highlights from Chargers’ 27-24 victory over Eagles

If you missed the Chargers’ win over the Eagles on Sunday, catch up on all of the best plays with this highlight reel.

After dropping their last two games, the Chargers bounced back with a victory over the Eagles, led by a phenomenal performance from quarterback Justin Herbert.

Herbert finished 32 of 38 for 356 yards with three touchdowns and a completion percentage of 84.2.

Wide receiver Keenan Allen found his groove after being quiet the past few games, catching 12 of his 13 targets for 104 yards.

It wasn’t the prettiest defensively, but the offense kept Los Angeles alive throughout the game.

Highlights from NDSU QB Trey Lance’s second pro day

Three representatives from the Atlanta Falcons were in attendance on Monday to watch North Dakota State quarterback Trey Lance throw at his second pro day.

Three representatives from the Atlanta Falcons were in attendance on Monday to watch North Dakota State quarterback Trey Lance throw at his second pro day. The team was also present at Lance’s first pro day, but this time sent quarterbacks coach Charles London, passing game specialist T.J. Yates and scouting director Dwaune Jones.

Whether the Falcons actually intend to take a quarterback or are just trying to drive up the price of their No. 4 pick for a potential trade, the team is rightfully doing its due diligence on one of the most intriguing overall prospects in this year’s draft class.

Check out some highlights from Lance’s second pro day below, via the NFL’s Twitter account.

As we examined on Monday, Lance wasn’t initially thought to be in play for the 49ers, who traded up to pick No. 3 a few weeks ago. But the closer we get to draft day, the more it seems like a real possibility he lands in San Francisco.

The Falcons reportedly talked at length with Lance’s coaches and some believe the North Dakota State signal-caller won’t make it out of the top five.

First Half Highlights: Chargers vs. Jets

The Los Angeles Chargers are dominating the New York Jets.

The Chargers lead the Jets by the score of 24-6 at the halfway mark.

Quarterback Justin Herbert is cooking. Herbert has 277 yards and two touchdowns on 23-of-31 passing. The rookie has connected with his favorite target, wide receiver Keenan Allen, 10 times for 108 yards.

Herbert’s two touchdown passes went to wide receiver Mike Williams and tight end Hunter Henry.

There’s always at least one beautiful ball by Herbert in each game. That one went to wide receiver Tyron Johnson down the middle of the field for 54 yards.

The defense has limited New York to only 82 yards, which has been led by the performances of linebacker Denzel Perryman, who has a sack and a handful of run stops and cornerback Tevaughn Campbell, who has a interception .

Notre Dame in NFL: Watch Claypool’s two touchdowns for Steelers vs. Bengals

Chase Claypool scored twice on Sunday giving him nine touchdowns already in his NFL rookie season for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Chase Claypool wasted no time bursting onto the scene with the Pittsburgh Steelers as the rookie receiver from Notre Dame was an immediate part of the offense starting in Week 1.

And that high starting point has only grown as the year has gone on for the now 9-0 Steelers after Claypool scored another pair of touchdowns on Sunday in a 36-10 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.

The first came with the Steelers leading 22-7 late in the third quarter and pretty much put things out of reach.

Roughly nine minutes later in the action Claypool was found again by Ben Roethlisberger for another score to extend the lead to the eventual final score, 36-10.

Claypool’s two touchdowns give him nine total scores on the year, good for a tie for the third most in the entire NFL as he trails only Dalvin Cook and Tyreek Hill in total touchdowns scored.

Claypool helped Notre Dame win their final six games of the 2019 season and has helped Pittsburgh win their first nine games of 2020.  The last game he played was over a full calendar year ago when the Irish fell in blowout fashion at Michigan in late October.

Falcons 2020 training camp: Calvin Ridley highlights

Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley isn’t shying away from expectations as he enters his third NFL season.

Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley isn’t shying away from expectations as he enters his third NFL season. The former Alabama standout is one of the league’s premier route-runners, but has primarily been the third receiving option since joining the team in 2018.

That should change in 2020 with TE Austin Hooper and WR Mohamed Sanu out of the picture. Over his first two seasons, Ridley has caught 127 balls for 1,687 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns.

Since it’s a slow news day, the Falcons’ Twitter account was kind enough to drop a new Ridley highlight video from training camp. Check it out below.

The man once known as “Prime Time” turned 53 years old on Sunday.

Former Falcons CB Deion Sanders was arguably the greatest defensive back in NFL history and one of the best athletes the league has ever seen. Drafted fifth overall by Atlanta in 1989, Sanders went on to win two Super Bowls, make eight Pro Bowls and be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Falcons LB Deion Jones relives game-clinching INT vs. Saints

The Falcons gave middle linebacker Deion Jones a long-term extension in 2019 because he’s a perfect fit for the modern NFL game.

The Falcons gave middle linebacker Deion Jones a long-term extension in 2019 because he’s a perfect fit for the modern NFL game.

Jones is fast, physical and exceptional in coverage. No play better showcases this than his leaping interception of Drew Brees in the red zone to seal a win over the Saints back in 2017.

Atlanta’s young play-maker recently relived the incredible game-saving pick for the team’s official website. Check out this awesome Falcons moment, as described in Jones’ own words below:

The Atlanta Falcons have been rolling out their All-Decade team over the past few weeks while the country collectively tries to remember what it was like when things were normal.

The Atlanta Falcons have been rolling out their All-Decade team over the past few weeks while the country collectively tries to remember what it was like when things were normal.

Atlanta’s defensive starting lineup has been announced, and as the team did with its All-Decade safety and defensive line groups, Twitter released a highlight video of starting cornerbacks Robert Alford and Desmond Trufant.

Check it out below.

Alford was drafted in 2013 and played for the Falcons until 2018, recording 303 tackles (250 solo) and 10 INTs in six seasons. Trufant, who was released in the offseason for salary cap space, played from 2013-2019 and made a Pro Bowl in 2015.

In 2020, Alford will suit up for the Arizona Cardinals, while Trufant just signed with the Detroit Lions.
