QB Justin Herbert connects with RB Austin Ekeler to take lead from Vikings

Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert and running back Austin Ekeler connected for a touchdown to take a 17-13 lead against the Vikings in the third quarter.

Herbert is the fourth player in history to reach 50 touchdown passes within the first 24 games of his career. Additionally, he is also the fourth-youngest player ever to achieve the accolade.

At 26, Ekeler is the youngest running back to reach 20 receiving touchdowns in the common draft era, since 1970.
