Announcers set for Chargers vs. Raiders Week 1 game

The Chargers will kick off the 2024 regular season against the Raiders on Sunday, Sept. 8, at 1:05 p.m. PT.

The AFC West divisional bout will be televised on CBS and Jim Nantz and Tony Romo will have the call.

Los Angeles looks to turn things around under new head coach Jim Harbaugh, who has a proven track record of winning at all of his coaching stops in college and the NFL.

Harbaugh and offensive coordinator Greg Roman seek to enforce a physical brand of football, and it starts with establishing the run. Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins will handle the backfield duties.

Justin Herbert will be without Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, but he’s proven to be one of the premier players at his position, throwing to lesser-known names. Joshua Palmer headlines the wide receiver room, with Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston and DJ Chark making up the rest.

After finishing as one of the worst defenses in the league, defensive coordinator Jesse Minter will look to turn things around. Minter will have Joey Bosa, Khalil Mack, Asante Samuel Jr., Derwin James and Alohi Gilman at his disposal. Poona Ford, Kristian Fulton and Denzel Perryman are the notable new additions.
