The New Orleans Saints are heading out to the West Coast for a week of shared practice sessions with the Los Angeles Chargers before their third preseason game. Los Angeles hosted New Orleans last year with a similar setup, which all parties enjoyed enough to repeat. This is a great opportunity for SoCal Saints fans to get out and see their team in person.
These teams couldn’t be in more different situations. The Chargers are coming off the heels of a victory over the Seattle Seahawks, though their depth continues to be tested by season-ending injuries – the latest loss starter is safety Jaylen Watkins, joining cornerback Jason Verrett and tight end Hunter Henry.
