Chargers Hand Chiefs 27–21 Defeat in São Paulo Season Opener

Herbert's 318-yard, three-touchdown display in Brazil raised early questions for Kansas City before a Week 2 rematch with Philadelphia.

Overview

  • Justin Herbert led Los Angeles with 318 passing yards and three touchdowns against the AFC West rival.
  • Patrick Mahomes threw for 258 yards and a touchdown to Travis Kelce as Kansas City struggled to sustain drives.
  • An early collision between Kelce and Xavier Worthy forced the rookie receiver out with a shoulder injury, which reports described as a dislocation.
  • Kansas City’s errors, including a missed extra point, and late defensive lapses undercut a second-half push.
  • The Brazil game opened the NFL’s seven-game international slate, and the 0–1 Chiefs next face the Eagles in Week 2.
