Chargers' Scott Matlock: Won't play Week 6

Matlock has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins due to a personal matter.

Matlock is the only active fullback on the Chargers' roster, so offensive coordinator Greg Roman could deploy tight ends Tucker Fisk, Tyler Conklin and rookie fifth-rounder Oronde Gadsden in the backfield to serve as additional blockers. Matlock's next opportunity to play is Week 7 against the Colts on Sunday, Oct. 19.
