In a high-stakes international showdown in São Paulo, Brazil, Justin Herbert powered the Los Angeles Chargers to a stunning 27–21 victory over the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. Herbert threw for 318 yards and three touchdowns, including a game-sealing 19-yard scramble late in the fourth quarter. Quentin Johnston contributed with two touchdown receptions, while the Chiefs’ comeback efforts led by Patrick Mahomes fell short due to missed extra points and failed conversions. The win not only snapped the Chargers’ seven-game losing streak against the Chiefs but also marked a historic kickoff to the NFL’s first-ever regular season game in Brazil.
