Chargers Defensive Coordinator Jesse Minter's group also forced five takeaways and limited the Lions to just one conversion on 11 total third downs. "Defense kind of picking up where they left off, seven points and creating turnovers for us," Harbaugh said.

On Tuesday, head coach Jim Harbaugh announced that Trey Lance will start the game at quarterback. Harbaugh added that Lance will play the first half and a drive of the third quarter. Undrafted rookie DJ Uiagalelei will then take over for the remainder of the game.
