ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (WKBW) — Despite emerging victorious, the Bills’ offense struggled with multiple turnovers in their second game at the new Highmark Stadium against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Bills, debuting their "Nickel City" uniforms, won by a score of 24-16. The game was iced after the Chargers failed to recover their onside kick attempt late in the fourth quarter.

The Bills turned the ball over five times during the game, after having no turnovers in their first two games of the NFL season.

C.J. Gardner-Johnson did make a key interception against Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert early in the fourth quarter as the Bills trailed by three.

The following offensive drive by Josh Allen was bogged down by multiple penalties, including one that overturned a potential touchdown pass made by Allen on fourth down. The Bills converted on that play, and after a few more costly penalties, Allen gave his team the lead with a quarterback sneak on 2nd & Goal.
