OVERVIEW
Los Angeles plays host to the New York Jets at SoFi Stadium on Sunday, Nov. 22, at 1:05 p.m. PT.
The Bolts are 22-12-1 against New York in the regular season all-time and are 2-0 in regular-season home games against the Jets since 2004, including a 31-0 win in 2014. Los Angeles is riding a three-game winning streak in the series, winning the last matchup 14-7 in 2017 at MetLife Stadium.

Keenan Allen set the team record for receptions by a wide receiver by reaching 589 for his career, passing Hall of Famer Charlie Joiner last week.
