Quarterback Easton Stick, a fifth-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, will make his first NFL start for the Chargers on Thursday Night Football.
They'll also be without star receiver Keenan Allen (heel). The Chargers (5-8) have lost four of their last five games and will be without quarterback Justin Herbert (finger) for the rest of the season. However, the Raiders (5-8) have lost three straight entering their Thursday Night Football matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers to kick off the Week 15 NFL schedule. When the Las Vegas Raiders fired head coach Josh McDaniels and promoted Antonio Pierce, the team had an initial spark with back-to-back wins.
