The Chargers won their first preseason game, the Hall of Fame game against the Detroit Lions, with Trey Lance and rookie quarterback DJ Uiagalelei getting reps under center. Lance played the majority of the snaps, throwing for 120 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 13-of-20 passing.

In Saturday’s preseason game against the Chargers, Pleasant will again take that inclusive approach, serving as the Rams’ head coach for the evening. It’s a role he served last preseason, too, as head coach Sean McVay gives Pleasant a platform to work toward his career goals both in August but during the season, too.

The backups, free agents and rookies are likely to get the bulk of the snaps again with the starters only playing a limited number of possessions.
