When Brandon Staley left the Rams to become the head coach of the Chargers, it was reasonable to think he’d bring at least a couple of players with him to his new team. Among the players he convinced to sign with the Chargers this offseason were Gerald Everett, Sebastian Joseph-Day and Morgan Fox.
On Sunday, all three players got revenge on their former team, making three key plays in the Chargers’ 31-10 win over the Rams.
The first one was made by Fox, who came out on fire against the Rams. On the fifth play of the game, Fox got to Baker Mayfield for a sack and a loss of 7 yards, causing the Rams’ opening drive to stall with a punt. Fox tied for third on the team with four tackles, landing one hit on Mayfield and finishing with two tackles for a loss. He’s had a strong first season with the Chargers after spending 2021 with the Panthers, finding a home again in Staley’s defense.

Everett, who was the Rams’ No. 2 tight end behind Tyler Higbee during his time in Los Angeles, found the end zone against his former team, too. He caught all three of his targets for a total of 15 yards with one touchdown, which just about put the game out of reach.
His touchdown gave the Chargers a 24-10 lead over the Rams in the third quarter, his third score of the season.
