Eric Rogers intercepted two passes, including a 43-yard pick-six in the third quarter, as the Los Angeles Chargers beat the New Orleans Saints 27-13 at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on August 10, 2025. Linebacker Caleb Murphy sacked Spencer Rattler twice in the second quarter, and third-round rookie Jamaree Caldwell brought down Tyler Shough for a 9-yard loss in the third. Los Angeles ran for 148 yards on 34 carries while holding New Orleans to 61 on 20, and the Chargers’ defense went without allowing a red zone touchdown across four quarters. The Saints committed seven penalties for 56 yards and turned the ball over three times to the Chargers’ one in front of 65,049 at SoFi Stadium.

“They just played with a lot of want-to and I’m thrilled with that,” Harbaugh said after the game. “I love guys that play like they want to be on this team. That warms the cockles of the heart.” Rogers, undrafted out of Rutgers just months before the game, went on to earn a spot on the Chargers’ 53-man roster when the league finalized cuts in late August. Los Angeles moved to 2-0 in the 2025 preseason, having already beaten Detroit 34-7 in the Hall of Fame Game, and played the Rams next on August 16. New Orleans fell to 0-1 with first-year head coach Kellen Moore making his NFL head coaching debut after serving as offensive coordinator of the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles the previous season, and hosted Jacksonville on August 17.
I'm Sean L. Garcia, a Swedish-born American journalist based in Washington with over six years of experience reporting across local publications and digital media. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and have spent the better part of my career covering the full spectrum of news, from breaking world affairs and domestic politics to sports analysis, consumer technology, automotive industry developments, the business of entertainment, celebrity culture, gaming, health, and the cultural moments that define how people actually live. I launched Daily Info Magazine on April 05, 2026, because I wanted to build one publication where readers never have to go elsewhere, a destination backed by real reporting, proper sourcing, and an editorial team that takes accuracy seriously across every beat we cover. I serve as Editor-in-Chief and continue to report, write, and publish alongside our team of writers, researchers, and editors every single day.
