Los Angeles Chargers Injury Updates: 2 Players Lost To IR, 1 Returns

Vibes are high right now for the Los Angeles Chargers after another victory, this time over the Cleveland Browns, bringing their record to 5-3. They are getting relatively healthier as the season goes on, which will be very important as they already had their bye.

During Wednesday’s media availability, Jim Harbaugh gave the latest update regarding injury moves.

Los Angeles Chargers Wednesday Injury Report

JK Dobbins has seen a career resurgence with the Los Angeles Chargers, but the original plan was for him to split time with Gus Edwards so that the offense could ride the hot hand and keep each back fresh.

This plan was foiled with Edwards went down with an injury in Week 4, and subsequently went on IR and missed the next 4 games.

According to Jim Harbaugh, the Chargers will open his 21-day activation window.

During his media availability, Edwards told reporters that he “feels 100 percent.” Certainly a good sign, and if all goes well, he could be available for this Sunday’s game against the Tennessee Titans.

It wasn’t all good news, however.

Both LB Junior Colson (ankle) and WR Simi Fehoko were placed on IR and will miss a minimum of four games.

There were also four players who did not practice on Wednesday.

CB Kristian Fulton is dealing with a hamstring, Khalil Mack a groin, Denzel Perryman a toe, and Ja’sir Taylor is nursing an injured fibula. All four players were listed as “did not practice.”

Mack has constantly been on the injury report throughout the season but has yet to miss a game, so this feels more precautionary than anything else.

We will update you on the status of these players after Thursday’s practice session.
