Week 1 of Chargers Training Camp is in the books.
The Bolts became the first team in the NFL to begin training camp, practicing without pads from Thursday to Saturday — but there were plenty of highlights right from the start.
Here are some of the top plays from the opening week of camp:
Herbert back like he never left
Justin Herbert rung in the new camp like only he could.
The Chargers franchise quarterback didn't miss a beat even on the opening day of training camp as he found Jalen Reagor deep for a 50-yard touchdown during the team portion of the practice.
Credit to Reagor as well, who had to make an outstretched effort to haul in the ball.
No. 10 was in midseason form on Day 1.
Johnston hauls in TD
The second day was more of the same for Herbert airing it out, this time finding the third-year receiver Quentin Johnston.
Johnston showed off his speed on a crossing route and found some space where Herbert connected with him in stride for what would have been a 40-plus yard touchdown.
Johnston had a knack for finding the endzone in 2024, leading the team with eight touchdowns in his second year, and in the first week of camp he found his way to the endzone again.
Rookie making plays
Oronde Gadsden just continues to flash.
The rookie tight end had a strong spring and showed off the rapport with Herbert once again on Saturday, hauling in a chunk play down the left sideline where he was able to create enough separation.
It was part of a big day for Gadsden where he had three receptions, all from Herbert, and continued to show his receiving ability.
