The Chargers came into the season strong, beating their divisional rival Raiders in Week 1 by a score of 24-19. But they have dropped their last 2 in a row – to Kansas City (27-24) and Jacksonville (38-10). QB Justin Herbert'suffered a rib injury in Week 2 but was able to play in Week 3, despite not looking like himself. He missed some practice time, but he doesn’t carry an injury designation for this one.
The Texans come into this game looking to get their first win of the season. After finishing their Week 1 game in a tie vs. the Colts, and dropping their last 2 to the Broncos and Bears, they are looking to bounce back with a win this week against an injured Chargers team coming off a big loss. QB Davis Mills'hasn’t looked great so far, posting only 3 touchdowns to 2 interceptions, 662 passing yards and a 58% completion percentage.
