The San Diego Chargers say enough tickets were sold by Thursday's deadline to lift the local television blackout for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins.
Last week, the Chargers needed a 24-hour extension to sell enough tickets to lift the blackout for its home opener, which they lost 31-26 to Baltimore.
Both of their exhibition games were blacked out, and the team has warned that there may be regular-season blackouts. The team hasn't had a regular-season blackout since 2004.
