While Hopkins was the star of the night, he did everything while hurt.
LA Chargers kicker Dustin Hopkins could barely stand and he kicked the game-winning FG for a Chargers 19-16 win over the Broncos. Lisa Salters asked him about it:

Despite the clear pain he was in, he came through for his team.
It was his play that gave the Chargers a much needed division win.
With that win, the Chargers are 4-2, and in a tie with the Chiefs.
While the Chargers are working on a short week, they can only hope Hopkins will be ready by Sunday.
If he’s not ready to go, then the Chargers might need another hero come Sunday.
