Chargers Highlight: Khalil Mack scoops up fumble and returns it inside the red zone

The defense has been the star of the show for the Chargers thus far with LA’s offense struggling to move the ball.

Inside two minutes left in the first half, Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew took a snap and tried to get the ball out quickly. The ball slipped out of his hands as he tried to determine whether or not to release it, tumbling towards the sideline as Minshew chased after it.

Chargers cornerback Kristian Fulton beat Minshew to the ball, attempting to scoop it up for what would have been an easy touchdown for Los Angeles. Fulton could not pick the ball up cleanly, however, instead pushing it forward as he stumbled and was run into by a diving Minshew.

Khalil Mack was there to back Fulton up, scooping the ball up and rumbling down the sideline with it. He returned the fumble 22 yards and set the Chargers up on the Raiders’ 12-yard line, setting up a Cameron Dicker field goal from 25 yards away to cut the lead to one.
