## Resource

The Chargers are quietly reshaping their QB room by limiting Justin Herbert’s reps — and it’s sparking a fierce backup battle. D.J. Uiagalelei is seizing the moment with standout throws, putting himself ahead of Trey Lance in a high-stakes race for the No. 2 spot. This isn’t just about injury prevention — it’s creating a compelling under-the-radar storyline that could define the season’s depth chart drama.
