Jason Kelce Defends Chargers' Line | Los Angeles Chargers News

A viral sack in the Chargers’ game against the Cardinals sparked social media firestorms, with fans blasting QB Justin Herbert and the offensive line. But former Pro Bowler Jason Kelce stepped in to defend them, explaining how the Cardinals’ disguised blitz created chaos and why the protection scheme was more complex than it appeared. Kelce highlighted the shifting defenders and confusing blocking angles that made the play tougher than it looked. Head coach Jim Harbaugh confirmed Herbert calls his own protections, and Herbert admitted he was trying to “throw hot” after a receiver dropped his route. Despite the backlash, tackles Joe Alt and Rashawn Slater had a solid game—especially Slater, who looked like his old All-Pro self—and the Chargers have a chance to bounce back against the Raiders.
