327-pound John Jenkins rumbles 44 yards with fumble for Raiders TD

This would be adding insult to infamy.

On a Thursday night the Los Angeles Chargers were putting on one of the worst performances in franchise history, they got to watch 327-pound Las Vegas Raiders defensive tackle John Jenkins pick up a fumble at the end of the third quarter and run — yes, run — 44 yards for a touchdown.

If you thought the score that made it 56-7 was humiliating, it got worse.

Easton Stick went to throw a swing pass on the next drive and it connected with Jack Jones … of Las Vegas.

He could have waltzed the 15 yards it took to get to the end zone.

Las Vegas 63, Los Angeles Chargers 7.

The last two scores came in 29 seconds.

It was the most points the Raiders, who were shut out Sunday by the Minnesota Vikings, had scored.

It was the most points the Chargers have allowed.
