The LA Chargers got a head start on training thanks to the team's participation in the Hall of Fame game on July 31. And to say it's been an eventful start to training camp would be an understatement.

These top-of-page storylines shouldn't take away from the action happening on the field during Chargers training camp. While two days of camp isn't a fair indication of how an entire season will go, there are already some promising standouts emerging from El Segundo.
