Hauschka kicks 60-yard field goal to give Seahawks 16-15 win
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Facing a 60-yard field goal attempt on a steamy evening with 16 seconds left and his Seattle Seahawks trailing by two, Steven Hauschka's mindset was to just swing away.
Nick Novak, competing for a job with rookie Josh Lambo, kicked a 52-yard field goal midway through the fourth quarter to give San Diego a 15-13 lead.
Lambo kicked a winning 47-yarder as time expired at Arizona a week earlier, as well as field goals of 53 and 43 yards.
The Chargers had a scary moment when franchise quarterback Philip Rivers hit his throwing hand on a defender's hand late in the second quarter.
Rivers then threw an incompletion in the end zone on third down and headed into the locker room early with a trainer.
Tyler Lockett returned a punt 67 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter.
Seahawks: LB K.J. Wright injured a shoulder, LB Mike Morgan a hamstring and SS Dion Bailey had back spasms.
The Seahawks have only one offensive touchdown in three exhibitions.
