The Chargers hit the road for a tough matchup against Seattle, whose elite defensive unit poses a serious obstacle for a struggling visiting offense. Slowing down explosive wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba remains the ultimate challenge for the visitors as they search for their initial victory of the campaign.

Through three games, Los Angeles has averaged 308.7 total yards and 14.6 points per contest, while the Seahawks counter with a top-ranked defense and an offense putting up 367.7 yards per game. Justin Herbert has accumulated 627 passing yards and three touchdowns for the Chargers, alongside Omarion Hampton with 197 rushing yards and two scores, and Ladd McConkey with 12 receptions for 183 yards.
