The Chargers (3-3) have dropped three of their past four, including a 17-15 loss at Arizona on Monday night, while the Saints (2-5) are looking to avoid their first six-game skid since 2005.

The Bolts have been competitive in all six games in their first year under Jim Harbaugh, but have struggled in the second half. They’ve been outscored 55-34 after halftime.

Los Angeles also has not scored a touchdown in the fourth quarter in its past five games.

Most of the outside focus of the NFL Combine is on the 40-yard dash to see who runs the fastest. For some positions, this drill is essential. For others, different drills are a focus of many scouts. One aspect of the Combine is important no matter what: The measurements. Every prospect participating in the combine gets their height, weight, arm length, hand size, and wing span measured. Having the ideal measurements is something teams value higher than most categories, and it can affect draft stock if a prospect has surprising or disappointing measurements. It happens every year, and...

The interview process is vital to understanding how these prospects think and if they can make it in the NFL. The New Orleans Saints will do their due diligence throughout the combine week, and although the team has hinted at Derek Carr being the starter in 2025, QB still needs to be looked at going into the draft. One of these quarterbacks the team could target, Miami's Cam Ward, is considered the far and away top QB in the draft. It is likely Ward gets selected before pick 9, but per Nick Underhill, the Saints still met with him yesterday at the NFL Combine.
