Guard Andrew Wylie (knee) is listed as questionable, but he has been a full participant in practice throughout the week and should be good to go for the game against the Chargers.
Los Angeles Chargers injury report
The Chargers have four players on their injury report ahead of their game on Thursday night.
Running back Austin Ekeler (ankle), who left the game Sunday against the New York Giants with an injury, safeties Alohi Gilman (quadriceps) and Derwin James Jr. (hamstring) and cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. (concussion).
