A Chargers receiver has his first career touchdown. And no, it’s not first-round pick Quentin Johnston. Nor is it fourth-round pick Derius Davis.
No, it’s third-year receiver Simi Fehoko, signed from the Steelers practice squad after the Mike Williams injury, who hit paydirt for the first time as a professional on Sunday night.
With third and three from the Bears 9 after another impressive drive, Justin Herbert dropped back and surveyed the field. Without Joshua Palmer, who reinjured his knee earlier in the series, Herbert took an extra beat to find an open man. That was Fehoko, who beat his defender on a shallow crossing route. Fehoko did the rest, outrunning Chicago’s defense to the end zone to give LA a 14-0 lead.
