Faced with low ticket-sales for this weekend's match-up against the Dallas Cowboys, the San Diego Chargers' game will not be televised in Southern California, the team announced.

Satellite and cable customers will be affected by Saturday night's black out, which begins at 6 p.m. in Qualcomm Stadium.

The NFL's policy requires all games to be sold out 72 hours before kickoff. If they aren't, the games can't be shown on live television within a 75-mile radius of the stadium.

About 5,600 tickets are still available to see the game at Qualcomm Stadium.
