Chargers punish Drew Kaser after botched field goal

Chargers punter Drew Kaser mishandled the potential game-tying field goal snap in Week 5 against Oakland, and he won't have a chance to do the same in Week 6.

Kaser has been stripped of his snap-holding duties, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune. Backup quarterback Kellen Clemens had an increased numbers of reps holding field goal snaps in practice, so he's the likely candidate to take over Thursday night against the Broncos.

"You stay ready for everything," Clemens said, via the Union-Tribune.

Clemens has history of holding field goal snaps from his time with the Jets, but that didn't always go well, either.
