According to their vice president, Mike Palm, in an appearance on VSIN, the Chargers' loss wiped out $10.3 million in Survivor equity across the two contests. That's a lot of money up in flames on one no-show.

The Los Angeles Chargers host the Las Vegas Raiders at SoFi Stadium on Sept. 20 and USA TODAY's NFL experts have locked in their picks for the action.
