NFL Note - Los Angeles Chargers Novak, Nick

Oct 16, 2017 - 6:39 AM PK Nick Novak kicked the winning 32-yard field goal as time expired, lifting the Chargers to a 17-16 victory.

Novak had been out of the NFL after Houston axed him in the final round of roster cuts before the season. He re-signed with the Chargers, his team from 2011 to 2014, on Oct. 5.

Novak made both of his field-goal attempts three days later in a victory over the New York Giants, but he missed a 48-yard try in the first quarter Sunday.

Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said he wasn't worried when Novak lined up for his field goal with three seconds on the clock.

"He doesn't miss the ones when the game is on the line," Lynn said. "I did a little research on him."
