America’s muscle car culture is adapting to the new world of electric vehicles, but the gasoline-powered high-performance road beasts will be around for at least a few more years.

The difference in the attitude of the teams was quite clear Thursday night.

Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert fractured the index finger on his right hand during the second quarter of Los Angeles’ game against the Denver Broncos.

Kellen Moore has been under the spotlight since he was hired as the Los Angeles Chargers offensive coordinator in late January.

A major professional team playing in a minor league venue would’ve been unheard of just a few years ago.

The NFL’s salary cap for 2022 will be $208.2 million — a healthy increase from the previous, pandemic-impacted years.

Players on four more NFL teams will be skipping in-person voluntary workouts because of the pandemic.

Boitano, FIle)Marty Schottenheimer’s NFL coaching career was as remarkable as it was flummoxing. “I never went into a game with Marty as coach feeling like I wasn’t fully prepared to win. Kurt Schottenheimer had been on his brother’s previous staffs, and Marty Schottenheimer’s son, Brian, had been Chargers quarterbacks coach from 2002-05. “If you look up football coach in the dictionary, it should have a picture of Marty Schottenheimer,” Brees said. Brian Schottenheimer was fired as Seattle’s offensive coordinator last month and then hired by new Jacksonville coach Urban Meyer as passing game coordinator-quarterbacks coach.

Panthers offensive coordinator Joe Brady is becoming a popular name for NFL teams seeking to fill head coaching vacancies. A person familiar with the situation says the Chargers, Falcons and Texans have all asked for and received permission from the Panthers to interview Brady for their head coaching jobs. (AP Photo/Brian Westerholt, File)ATLANTA – The Atlanta Falcons have interviewed a pair of offensive coordinators, Nathaniel Hackett of the Green Bay Packers and Joe Brady of the Carolina Panthers, for their head coaching job. The Falcons conducted a virtual interview with Hackett on Thursday, one day after meeting virtually with Brady. “I think one of the (prerequisites) to being a good head coach is presence in front of a room," Rodgers said.

MIAMI – The Miami Dolphins have lost two starters to the Reserve/Covid-19 list ahead of Sunday’s game against the Chargers. The team placed defensive tackle Christian Wilkins and linebacker Kyle Van Noy on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. That doesn’t necessarily mean that the players tested positive, it could also mean they have been quarantined after coming into close contact with someone who has tested positive. The team also placed reserve wide receiver Matt Cole on that list, while activating another wide receiver, Lynn Bowden, Jr.

The All-Pro running back is expected to miss “multiple weeks” with a high right ankle sprain he sustained in Carolina’s 31-17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. “As soon as the third quarter ended I went and got taped and tried to play it off,” McCaffrey said. In two games this season McCaffrey has run for 156 yards and four touchdowns and caught seven passes for 67 yards. The loss of McCaffrey is a devastating blow for the Panthers' offense. The Panthers rewarded the fourth-year running back with a four-year, $64 million contract making him the highest-paid running back in the league.

COSTA MESA, Calif. Defensive end Joey Bosa has agreed to a contact extension that will make him the highest-paid defensive player in the NFL. Two people familiar with the deal said the five-year extension is worth $135 million, which includes $78 million guaranteed at signing and $102 million overall. That contract included $100 million guaranteed for Garrett, a defensive end who was the top pick in 2017. The Chargers confirmed Bosa has agreed to the extension but did not disclose financial terms. Bosas extension also prevents the Chargers from having a messy holdout situation for the second straight season.

The Rams join the Cincinnati Bengals (2009, 13) and Dallas Cowboys (2002, 07) as teams that have done Hard Knocks twice while the Chargers are making their first appearance. Rams coach Sean McVay and Chargers coach Anthony Lynn are both going into their fourth season leading their respective teams.

DAVIE, Fla. - Dolphins head coach Brian Flores is lamenting wasted opportunities. The Dolphins lost to Dallas 31-6 on Sunday, but Flores believes the team had plenty of chances to make the game closer against the Cowboys. "There was definitely some opportunities for us to make plays in all three phases," Flores said Monday. Flores said Drake needs to work on ball security, but does not need to change his running style. Though the Dolphins are off to a terrible start, Flores does not think the team is far away in these games.
