Chargers' Caleb Sturgis: Trending toward return

Sturgis (quadriceps) looks like he will be available for Sunday's game in Seattle after the Chargers waived Michael Badgley on Tuesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.

Sturgis missed the Chargers' past two contests due to a strained quadriceps, but on the heels of a bye week, he seems to be trending toward a return. The release of Badgley, his replacement, is the best sign that Sturgis is closing in game action. Sturgis will end all speculation if he's listed as a full participant on Wednesday's injury report.
