Latest news from Chargers camp

Fifth-round rookie wide receiver KeAndre Lambert-Smith had an impressive day of practice. He had perhaps the day's best highlight in 1-on-1 drills when he snagged a ball over the outstretched arms of cornerback Deane Leonard and tapped both feet in bounds on the sideline. He also recorded multiple catches during the team periods. Lambert-Smith had missed time earlier in camp with an undisclosed injury, but quarterback Justin Herbert said Lambert-Smith hasn't missed a step. "He's a special player," Herbert said. "... He's one of those guys you just gotta get him the ball ... he's going to go out there and make a play."
