“I had 364 days of rest,” Nate Kaeding joked after his San Diego Chargers beat the Oakland Raiders Monday night. “Fresh legs.”

Kaeding had five field goals and six touchbacks in the Chargers’ 22-14 victory.

The former Iowa player had ACL surgery on his left knee after the first game of last season, in which he was injured trying to make a tackle on a kickoff. He reclaimed his kicking job in training camp this year, and got off to a perfect start.
