The Los Angeles Chargers kicker is injured and in pain. He’s also clearly a clutch.

Hopkins, Rangers and all, scored a 39-yard win in overtime to give the Chargers a 19-16 victory over the Denver Broncos.

“He’s got a hamstring cramp/strain. It doesn’t feel right,” Chargers coach Brandon Staley said via the team’s report card after the game. “You can’t say he hangs there.”

It was a perfect and miserable night for Hopkins, who scored extra points and 37, 31 on each of his five kicks, even though he was injured on the first attempt. , 35 and 39 yards field goals.

“The first extra made me feel bad, and it went downhill from there,” Hopkins told ESPN’s Lisa Salters after the game.

The Chargers announced whether Hopkins could return at one point in the game. Four minutes later, he scored. Hopkins didn’t miss any time, and he didn’t miss any kicks.

“I was hurt badly,” he said.

On Monday night, Hopkins’ 13 points were massive during a sluggish defense and offense.

Trailing 0-10 after the first quarter, the Chargers tied the game on Hopkins’ first field goal, then tied the game again with 13 points in the second quarter, a three on his 35 yards 58 seconds into overtime rule, and won the game on his 39 yards.

Like his last kick, Hopkins collapsed on the SoFi Stadium field after bending his left leg in the follow-up to his win. His teammates gleefully gathered around him and picked him, as he did to them in all games.

“It’s okay,” Hopkins said of distance. “I’m not saying, ‘I can kick it from anywhere.’ That’s not what I mean. It just means if it’s going to hurt, what’s the difference if it’s 20 or 55, you know? Like, Well, give it a try, that’s it.

With all the pop and circumstances of the night, Hopkins held the key to lift the Chargers to Monday night’s victory.
