Chargers' Easton Stick: One of three QBs active
Easton Stick is active along with Taylor Heinicke as options at quarterback behind starter Justin Herbert (ankle) in Sunday's game against the Steelers.Herbert didn't take any first-team reps during Week 3 prep while nursing a high-ankle sprain, managing just one limited practice Wednesday through Friday. Despite the lack of practice activity, Herbert convinced the coaching and training staffs that he is able to start after completing a pregame warmup. Herbert should take every snap Sunday so long as the game is competitive and he doesn't suffer a setback with the ankle, but Stick might be first in line to get reps if Herbert should exit the contest. Per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, head coach Jim Harbaugh said Monday that Stick would have been first in line to start Week 3 if Herbert couldn't, though the coach backed off that stance a bit by Friday, telling Eric Smith of the Los Angeles Chargers' official site that he has "a lot of faith" in both Stick and Heinicke being capable of stepping in for Herbert, if necessary.

Chargers' Easton Stick: Goes distance in preseason finale
Easton Stick completed 12 of 29 passes for 187 yards, a touchdown and an interception in Saturday's 26-19 preseason win over the Cowboys. He added 17 rushing yards on four carries.It was a poor performance through the air for Stick, but he didn't need to do much due to Trey Lance throwing five INTs for Dallas, and Derius Davis and Simi Fehoko scoring a couple long TDs in the first half. Stick appears to be locked into the No. 2 quarterback role, but Justin Herbert (foot) is on track to be ready for Week 1 and the Los Angeles Chargers will be hoping his backup isn't needed for extensive action again as he was late in 2023.

Chargers' Easton Stick: Struggles yet again
Easton Stick completed eight of his 13 attempts for 85 yards and an interception in Saturday's 13-9 preseason loss to the Rams. He also carried the ball five times for 22 yards, but he did record a fumble.That's now two bad showings for Stick, who seemed to have the backup quarterback job behind Justin Herbert (foot) locked up at the start of the preseason. It's unclear if the fifth-year veteran is really at risk of losing the positional battle despite the poor outings as projected third-string quarterback, Max Duggan, was a healthy inactive Saturday while training camp addition Luis Perez also struggled to some extent (13 of 20 for 78 yards and a fumble). Stick figures to have one more chance to solidify his standing on the active roster in the team's final preseason game against the Cowboys.

Chargers' Easton Stick: Struggles mightily Saturday
Easton Stick completed five of his 13 pass attempts for 31 yards and an interception in Saturday's 16-3 preseason loss to the Seahawks. He also carried the ball once for 12 yards.The Jim Harbaugh Era got off to a dreadful start in the exhibition game, as the Los Angeles Chargers had just one drive that went longer than five plays in the first half. Stick, who started Saturday's game due to Justin Herbert (foot) being sidelined, struggled mightily, often failing to hit wide receivers in stride or getting pressured off his plant spot immediately. A fifth-round draft pick back in 2019, Stick is expected to act as the team's backup QB provided he's able to hold off second-year quarterback Max Duggan in a training camp battle for the position.

Chargers' Easton Stick: Will fill in for Herbert
While Justin Herbert recovers from an injury to the plantar fascia in his right foot, Easton Stick is slated to fill in as the Los Angeles Chargers' top QB, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.Per the report, Herbert is expected to be ready for the start of the regular season, but while the Chargers' franchise QB is sidelined, Stick will fill in, with Max Duggan and rookie Casey Bauman in reserve. Stick got starts down the stretch last season after Herbert landed on IR with a finger injury, and he's still the next man up the team's QB room ahead of Week 1.

Chargers' Easton Stick: Underwhelming in season finale
Easton Stick completed 28 of 47 passes for 258 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Chiefs. He rushed the ball 13 times for 77 yards and also lost a fumble.Stick drew his fourth consecutive start with Justin Herbert (finger) sidelined. Despite taking to the air 47 times, he put up a relatively modest yardage total while averaging just 5.5 yards per attempt. He did show plenty of playmaking ability as a rusher, but the end result was still an uninspiring effort for the Los Angeles Chargers' offense as they mustered only four field goals. In five games this season, Stick accounted for only four touchdowns while turning the ball over five times. He's set to hit free agency and will hope to remain the backup in Los Angeles or land a second-string job elsewhere around the league.
