As the No. 7-seeded Los Angeles Chargers<\/a> (11-6) opened up its week of practice ahead of its NFL playoffs wild-card matchup against the No. 2-seeded New England Patriots<\/a> (14-3), the Bolts revealed quite a lengthy Wednesday injury report.<\/p>\n

According to the report, the Chargers had eight players who didn’t practice on Wednesday, including running back Omarion Hampton (ankle), outside linebacker Bud Dupree (hamstring), wide receiver KeAndre Lambert-Smith (hamstring), tackle Austin Deculus (oblique), safety Kendall Williamson (ankle), and linebacker Del’Shawn Phillips (hamstring).<\/p>\n

Per usual, veterans Khalil Mack and Keenan Allen did not practice, as the two used Wednesday as their typical rest day.<\/p>\n

The Chargers had three players who were “limited” on Wednesday, including cornerback Donte Jackson (ankle), left tackle Jamaree Salyer (hamstring), and safety Elijah Molden (hamstring).<\/p>\n

Quarterback Justin Herbert (left hand) and tight end Tucker Fisk (ankle) were both full participants, with the Chargers opening Fisk’s 21-day practice window on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

While the expansive injury report is nothing unexpected for the first day of practice, it is a bit worrisome if the statuses of many do not see improvements as the week progresses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As the No. 7-seeded Los Angeles Chargers (11-6) opened up its week of practice ahead of its NFL…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":663127,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2064],"tags":[857,247,265,240,9819,25007,7849,7860,241,25006,10069,10072,22446,5853,7850,207,1103,47885,7,1389,20842,789,1066,1159,1323,1328,10346,59741,2706,3278,239,1014,262,2444,2443,10236,248,267,206,249,88,6,35196,84,208,1595,359,1602,1982,9,266,1980,1067,15087,811,95860],"class_list":["post-663126","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles-chargers","tag-allen","tag-american","tag-american-football","tag-angeles","tag-austin","tag-austin-deculus","tag-bud","tag-bud-dupree","tag-chargers","tag-deculus","tag-delshawn","tag-delshawn-phillips","tag-donte","tag-donte-jackson","tag-dupree","tag-england","tag-facebook","tag-fisk","tag-football","tag-herbert","tag-hub","tag-jackson","tag-justin","tag-justin-herbert","tag-keenan","tag-keenan-allen","tag-kendall","tag-kendall-williamson","tag-khalil","tag-khalil-mack","tag-los","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-chargers","tag-losangeles","tag-losangeleschargers","tag-mack","tag-national","tag-national-sports","tag-new","tag-new-england-patriots","tag-news","tag-nfl","tag-nfl-hub","tag-nfl-playoffs","tag-patriots","tag-phillips","tag-playoffs","tag-smg","tag-smg-timely","tag-sports","tag-sports-news","tag-timely","tag-tucker","tag-tucker-fisk","tag-twitter","tag-williamson"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/663126","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=663126"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/663126\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/663127"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=663126"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=663126"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=663126"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
