The Friday injury report for the Chargers saw some movement from Thursday’s edition with three players recording a new status following the team’s latest practice.
Safety Elijah Molden went from limited on Thursday to a non-participant on Friday with a hamstring injury he sustained against the Chiefs in Brazil. That’s not a great sign to see him take a step back, but we’ll have to wait and see his status later today to get a better picture of his injury severity.
The other two changes were to linebacker
Del’Shawn Phillips and cornerback Tarheeb Still, both of whom fortunately took a step further on Friday. Phillips went from DNP to a limited participant while Still shifted upwards from limited to a full participant.
Denzel Perryman, whom we expect to miss several weeks with a high ankle sprain, remained a DNP. Since Perryman has not been placed on IR just yet, it leads us to believe the Chargers think he’ll be able to return sooner than the four-week minimum that injured/reserve would demand.
