Chargers secondary playing at a high level despite injuries and lineup changes
AP Sports Writer
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) — Tarheeb Still’s breakout two-interception performance last week in Atlanta not only got him AFC Defensive Player of the Week honors, it spotlighted a Los Angeles Chargers secondary that has exceeded expectations despite dealing with injuries most of the season. Four of the five starters from the Sept. 8 opener against Las Vegas have missed time due to injuries, including two currently on injured reserve. Cornerbacks Still and Cam Hart — both selected in the fifth round — have been quick studies, while safeties Elijah Molden and Marcus Maye have also excelled. Molden and Maye weren’t enough on the roster during training camp.
