Chargers No. 2 quarterback Easton Stick and newcomer Luis Perez, signed last week, took an equal number of snaps under center during practice Monday.
The Chargers face a key decision heading into the second week of the preseason: Will Easton Stick continue to lead the offense against their L.A. neighbors, the Rams, on Saturday, or will newcomer Luis Perez take over? As of Monday, Stick remains the Chargers' starter, working with the first-team offense, while Perez — signed last week — already was taking reps with the second team. Both Stick and Perez received a nearly equal number of reps under center.
The question remains: Who will it be? Harbaugh is trying to avoid the quarterback situation from becoming a pseudo-quarterback controversy. Considering Stick’s performance against the Seahawks and no update on Justin Herbert, however, deciding who will be under center is a crucial competition. After Herbert suffered a plantar fascia injury on Aug. 1, the training staff gave the quarterback a two-week timetable for a “gradual return to play,” set for Thursday.
