Entering Week 9 of the 2008 campaign, Schilens was named a starter, playing opposite Javon Walker.

Chaz broke the fifth metatarsal bone in his left foot in August, 2009, but returned to action midway through the season and caught the game-winning touchdown in an upset in Week 15 over the rival Denver Broncos.
