Coming off wins in their exhibition openers, the New Orleans Saints and Los Angeles Chargers will meet Sunday night at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.

The game comes on the heels of the two teams staging joint practices on Thursday and Friday at the Chargers' facility in Costa Mesa, California.

One Saints player who is already intimately familiar with the Chargers is quarterback Derek Carr, who spent his first nine seasons in the NFL with the Chargers' AFC West rivals, the Las Vegas Raiders.

One thing to monitor: The game could be impacted by Hurricane Hillary, which is expected to hit the Los Angeles area early Monday morning.

What to know about Saints vs. Chargers

The Chargers are coming off a convincing 34-17 victory over the Rams in their preseason opener, one in which they rolled up an impressive 214 yards on the ground. Undrafted free agent running back Elijah Dotson accounted for 92 of those yards on only six carries, breaking off a pair of long touchdown runs.

The Saints, under second-year head coach Dennis Allen, will likely lean heavily on Carr and wideouts Chris Olave and Michael Thomas this season -- especially with starting running back Alvin Kamara out for the first three games due to a suspension. In the Saints' 26-24 win over Kansas City last week, Olave didn't catch his only target and Thomas hauled in one pass for 16 yards in limited action.
