Patriots' Ezekiel Elliott: Expected to take on Chargers

Elliott (thigh) is expected to suit up for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Elliott logged three consecutive limited sessions in practice this week and is officially listed as questionable, but the expectation is that he will suit up versus Los Angeles. He hasn't scored since Week 7, and while continuing to work behind top backfield option Rhamondre Stevenson, Elliott has handled double-digit carries in just three of 11 appearances on the season. He should be officially announced as active roughly 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.
