In a challenging game for the New Orleans Saints against the Los Angeles Chargers, Jake Haener stepped in for Spencer Rattler at quarterback late in the third quarter. With the Saints trailing 16-5, Haener managed to complete one pass and led a drive that culminated in a 43-yard field goal by Blake Grupe, following a notable 24-yard run by Alvin Kamara.
Rattler, starting for the third consecutive time due to Derek Carr's injury, struggled with his performance, completing only 12 of 24 passes for 155 yards. The Saints faced significant difficulties, with eight of their first nine drives resulting in punts.
