ARLINGTON, Texas -- Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said he was surprised to learn kicker Nick Novak's back was acting up to the point that he could not effectively do his job against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday.
"We lost our kicker in the first quarter and that kind of threw us off a little bit," Lynn said. "We were in four-down territory for the rest of the night, but he came in and out of the lineup. That's something we'll have to deal with now the game is over.
