  • Chargers' Amen Ogbongbemiga: Iffy for Week 14

    Ogbongbemiga (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's contest against the Broncos.

    Ogbongbemiga was a DNP in all three practices this week, leaving his status for Sunday's game up in the air. He's played mostly on special teams this season and has three tackles across 12 games.

  • Chargers' Zack Bailey: Out for Week 14

    Bailey (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Broncos.

    Bailey will miss a second straight game while nursing an injured back. The Chargers will be without one of their depth options on the offensive line when they take on Denver at home.

  • Chargers' Nick Vannett: Ready for Sunday

    Vannett (concussion) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Vannett was able to log full practice sessions both Thursday and Friday after limited work Wednesday, and it now seems as if he's had enough time to move past his concussion. The 30-year-old has appeared in only three games for Los Angeles this season, and he'll likely serve as the team's No. 4 tight end in Week 14.

  • Chargers' Deane Leonard: Officially out vs. Denver

    Leonard (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Leonard did not practice this week after playing every single snap in last Sunday's win over the Patriots. He missed three games earlier in the season with a hamstring issue. Head coach Brandon Staley noted Friday that Michael Davis will start Sunday for Leonard, per Daniel Popper of The Athletic.

  • Chargers' Joshua Palmer: Won't be activated Week 14

    Palmer (knee) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Palmer had his 21-day window to return from injured reserve opened Wednesday, but he won't be activated prior to Sunday's clash with Denver. The 24-year-old wide receiver is eligible to continue practicing with his teammates for at least two more weeks, so he could be a candidate for activation from IR ahead of the Chargers' Week 15 game versus the Raiders next Thursday.

  • Chargers' Austin Ekeler: Could face competition for work

    Ekeler may be at risk of losing out on some snaps and touches out of the backfield after Chargers head coach Brandon Staley said Wednesday that "competition for carries is going to be something that you can see happening," Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports. "We're going to keep exploring, making adjustments, so that we can find that rhythm that I've been talking about," Staley said. "We know that Austin is a good running back. We just haven't found any rhythm in the last couple of weeks in the run game. Just need to keep after it and keep working hard in practice."

    Staley's comments come while Ekeler has mustered just 3.0 yards per carry on 110 total rushing attempts since the running back returned from a three-game absence due to a high-ankle sprain following the Chargers' Week 5 bye. Ekeler hasn't seemed to show any notable improvement as he's become further removed from the injury; as Sunday's game against the Broncos approaches, the 28-year-old is in the midst of a streak of 28 carries that have gained six yards or fewer. Joshua Kelley would be next in line to poach touches out of the backfield if the Chargers elect to scale back Ekeler's workload on the ground, though Kelley hasn't made much of a case to deserve more snaps in his own right. Over his last four appearances, Kelley has averaged just 2.6 yards on 53 totes. The Chargers' wholesale struggles in run blocking -- the team's 26 percent run-block win rate is the seventh-lowest in the league this season -- seem to have played at least some part in Ekeler's poor efficiency, and his downturn in productivity comes at a particular poor time given that he's scheduled for free agency this spring.
