The Los Angeles Chargers took on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10 of the NFL season. The Chargers are still trying to establish some consistency with their offense.
Veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen has led Los Angeles in the passing game, but there is a rookie who has turned heads. Tight end Oronde Gadsden II has turned into a reliable target for quarterback Justin Herbert. Gadsden, a fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, came into the Week 10 matchup with the fourth-most receiving yards for the Chargers. Unfortunately, Gadsden suffered an injury in the game and was taken into the medical tent and then the locker room.
