Chargers QB Trey Lance leads list of Hall of Fame Game's winners and losers
NFL football is back. Sort of. Sort of NFL football. Regardless, the annual Pro Football Hall of Fame Game was the first time any of the league's teams had met between the lines since Super Bowl 59 – and, sadly, Thursday night's contest was somehow exponentially less suspenseful than the Philadelphia Eagles' one-night dismantling of the Kansas City Chiefs' dynasty in February. The Los Angeles Chargers' 34-7 shellacking of the Detroit Lions in Canton, Ohio, didn't feature many players likely to contribute much to those teams this season. But hey, let's celebrate the sorta kinda return of NFL football anyway with a few of the winners and losers now that the league's preseason is officially underway: WINNERS Trey Lance The high point of his NFL career was being the No. 3 overall pick of the 2021 draft by the San Francisco 49ers. Since then, Lance has been held back by injury, inexperience and lack of opportunity – Brock Purdy taking advantage of his absence with the Niners before Lance sat behind Dak Prescott for two years with the Dallas Cowboys. Balling out in a preseason game won't erase years of frustration for Lance, but he flashed the talent commensurate with a man taken so high in the draft – ripping the ball downfield, making good decisions and showing off his mobility. And, yes, he was playing against fellow backups, but the poise, confidence and joy was unmistakable as Lance finished 13-for-20 for 120 yards and two touchdowns through the air. Thursday's performance won't necessarily vault him past Taylor Heinicke to be Justin Herbert's primary backup for the Bolts. But Lance is playing for a coach, Jim Harbaugh, who's a former quarterback with a reputation for maximizing his passers. It was just 13 years ago that Harbaugh rolled with little-known dual-threat QB Colin Kaepernick over former No. 1 pick Alex Smith, a decision that propelled the 49ers all the way to Super Bowl 47. Just sayin'. Nikko Reed The undrafted Chargers rookie corner carried his training camp momentum over into his professional debut, picking off a pass and returning it 60 yards to set up LA's second first-quarter touchdown. And make no mistake, there are jobs and reps to be won in this secondary. Pro Football Hall of Fame Earlier on Thursday, the HOF announced that KeyBank will sponsor a new event center, its construction scheduled to begin later this fall. The Hall hopes the venue, which will have nearly 20,000 square feet of space, will be open in time for the induction of the 2027 class of Hall of Famers. Heat and rain weather have been known to regularly disrupt enshrinement ceremonies – and the Hall of Fame Game, too – in recent years. Pro Football Hall of Fame … Game A game that's been plagued and even canceled by inclement weather, poor field conditions, COVID-19 and even the 2011 lockout in recent years was played without a hitch. For a change. Nyheim Miller-Hines He last played in the NFL in 2022, suffering a torn ACL during a jet ski accident in the summer of 2023. Now trying to make the Chargers' roster, Miller-Hines' versatility fueled a positive first step Thursday. He had 79 all-purpose yards on 11 touches, getting eight carries and catching a pass while returning one punt and one kickoff. Grant Stuard A fifth-year reserve linebacker for the Lions, he was a bright spot for Detroit's defense, making four tackles − including a sack and another for a loss. With Malcolm Rodriguez still recovering from a torn ACL, Stuard could create an opportunity to get on the field this season when Detroit loads the box. LOSERS Grant Stuard Lions coach Dan Campbell allowed Stuard to return the night's opening kickoff, which he advanced 26 yards … before fumbling. The Chargers were in the end zone five plays later. There's a reason linebackers don't return kickoffs, Coach ... though, to Stuard's credit he brought the next one back 36 yards. Jared Goff's backups Neither Kyle Allen, who started behind center for Detroit, nor Hendon Hooker distinguished themselves while trying to earn the nod to back up Goff, the Lions' QB1, this year. Heading into his seventh season, Allen's experience should serve him well. And yet he served up a pair of bad interceptions instead − and both were poor decisions, not the functions of playing with bottom-of-the-roster players. And Hooker, a third-round pick two years ago who effectively took a medical redshirt as a rookie, still needs to show he's ready for a bigger role. He was also picked off, though his INT can be fairly attributed to rookie WR Dominic Lovett, who had the ball taken away from him downfield. Detroit Lions The HOF Game typically pits two teams sending at least one former star into the Hall, and longtime Bolts TE Antonio Gates will be enshrined Saturday as will San Diego native Eric Allen. But not only did no Lions go in this year, two players who victimized them for years – former Green Bay Packers WR Sterling Sharpe and former Minnesota Vikings DE Jared Allen – will be honored. Sorry, Lions fans, you'll have to take pride in the fact Gates hails from Motown. . This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: Hall of Fame Game winners, losers: Trey Lance, Chargers crush Lions

Chargers, Trey Lance dominate Hall of Fame Game; NFL debuts virtual measurement system
Football season is officially underway, as the Los Angeles Chargers defeated the Detroit Lions, 34-7 in the annual Hall of Fame game in Canton, Ohio. There aren't too many serious roster discussions that come out of the Hall of Fame Game but the Chargers could have an interesting situation brewing at quarterback behind Justin Herbert. Chargers quarterback Trey Lance completed 13 of his 20 pass attempts for 120 yards, tossing two touchdowns and avoiding any interceptions. Advertisement Lance looked as good as he's looked at any point thus far in his NFL career, which isn't the biggest of sample sizes. In four years in the league, Lance has started just five regular-season games, posting a 56.6 completion percentage while throwing five touchdowns to four interceptions. Even his preseason games have been disappointing, highlighted by the five interceptions Lance threw in last year's preseason finale for the Dallas Cowboys. Lance looked like a much-improved player Thursday night. He was poised, tossing his first touchdown on a fourth-down bootleg. On the ensuing Chargers drive, Lance had a perfect touch pass deep to KeAndre Lambert-Smith. Trey Lance dropping it the bucket for KeAndre Lambert-Smith 🎯@ProFootballHOF Game on NBCStream on @NFLPlus + Peacock — NFL (@NFL) August 1, 2025 Veteran Taylor Heinicke was the Chargers' backup in 2024 but the Chargers signed Lance, the No. 3 pick in the 2021 draft, in free agency. As The Athletic's Chargers beat writer Daniel Popper wrote coming into the game, the case of Heinicke versus Lance is one of experience vs. upside. Lance turned 25 years old less than three months ago, while Heinicke is 32 years old. Lance's multi-dimensional skill set is also intriguing paired with Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh and offensive coordinator Greg Roman. It doesn't appear that an index card will be necessary anymore to determine if a team got a first down or not. The NFL debuted a new virtual measurement system in the first half, after Lions running back Craig Reynolds ran for 10 yards on the first play of the second quarter. Instead of the chain gang running onto the field to see if Reynolds had enough for the first down, officials waited for a virtual measurement to confirm that Reynolds had enough to move the chains. Introducing the new virtual measurement system for first downs, which allows the NFL to accurately and efficiently measure the distance between the spotted ball and the line to gain. — NFL (@NFL) August 1, 2025 The virtual measurement doesn't completely remove the human impact of the referee, as it's still on the officials to spot the ball. Once they do that, technology takes over and handles the rest. The NFL was faced with a tragic situation earlier this week, when a gunman opened fire in New York at the NFL headquarters. Advertisement 'It's a difficult thing, particularly when you're dealing with a senseless act like this,' Goodell said. 'There are no excuses for those senseless acts. They're hard for all of us to understand when it inflicts pain on people you know and people you care about and people that we deal with on a daily basis. That's particularly hard.' Goodell did not travel to Canton for the game, as he stayed back in New York to attend the funeral service of Didarul Islam, the NYPD officer who was one of four people killed earlier this week. The Lions spent last week tackling each other in shorts and fighting each other — to a point where Dan Campbell had to briefly pause practice on consecutive days to reel things in. It felt like that pent-up physicality would be on display tonight. But it was the Chargers who came out swinging. Detroit struggled with ball security, losing the turnover battle 5-0. Linebacker Grant Stuard fumbled the opening kickoff return, Kyle Allen threw two interceptions — one nearly returned for a touchdown — and Jakobie Keeney-James muffed a punt deep in Detroit territory. Neither team lit up the box score, but turnovers leading to strong field position proved to be the difference. The Lions' offense could never quite get into a rhythm thanks ot the turnovers. Special teams play was also ugly for the Lions this evening, something coordinator Dave Fipp won't be happy about. On the bright side, rookies Isaac TeSlaa and Ahmed Hassanein flashed. A rough start to the preseason, but hey, it's the preseason. (Photo of Jim Harbaugh and Trey Lance: Nick Cammett / Getty Images)
