Chargers Week 14 Injury Report

by John Gennaro on Dec 18, 2009 1:32 PM PST in San Diego Chargers News

Player	Injury	Wendnesday	Thursday	Friday	Status
Nick Hardwick, C	Ankle	DNP	DNP	DNP	Out
Alfonso Boone, DE	Knee	DNP	FP	FP	Questionable
Kevin Burnett, ILB	Neck			DNP	Questionable
Legedu Naanee, WR	Foot		DNP	FP	Questionable
Shaun Phillips, OLB	Ankle	DNP	FP	FP	Questionable
Quentin Jammer, CB	Toe	DNP	FP	FP	Probable
Travis Johnson, DE	Groin	DNP	FP	FP	Probable
Shawne Merriman, OLB	Foot	DNP	DNP	FP	Probable
Mike Scifres, P	Groin	FP	FP	FP	Probable
Eric Weddle, S	Knee	FP	FP	FP	Probable

Key:

DNP = Did Not Participate
FP = Full Participation

All told, the Chargers looks extremely healthy. Hardwick is out, and I'm starting to think he'll be IR'd and they'll just aim for the beginning of next season. Burnett will probably play but not start, which he might not have anyways. Everyone else I expect to play.

Bengals Injury Report is after the jump.

Key:

LP = Limited Participation (usually working out on the side alone)
Out = The team didn't expect the player to practice due to a long-term injury. The player may not have even been at the facility.
If you're wondering why some of the boxes are blank, it's because the player was not on that day's injury report (these reports are submitted to the NFL ever day) and was probably injured in practice the day before.

So does Scifres just have a season-long groin injury at this point that won’t heal until he has 3 months off to heal it?

Here’s my question, and it’s purely based on ignorance, but why even list the injury if it’s not limiting his practice or playing time?

That's my guess.

As to why he’s on the list, I have no idea.

My guess

Is that its purely procedural. A butcher’s bill the training staff must submit each day to the organization who in turn submit it to the league.

It's what the Patriots would do

Really i’d have no clue other then to say hey this guy may not be 100%

You know what would be really funny

If we found out in ten years that Tom Brady really had a chronic shoulder condition that required constant treatment.

good to see Boone and Johnson back

should shore up our run defense a bit to get that rotation going in there.

Dude, what's wrong with Legs?

by SJO on Dec 18, 2009 5:42 PM PST reply actions

If Legs is out, I wonder if we'll see Buster

I'd say Legedu is playing

Just had a foot injury but he practiced on friday

Yeah, Acee said that it’s a chronic foot thing that he’s had for a while and just needed a day of rest for it. That could actually point more towards “We’re going to be throwing to you a lot this week, so maybe we should get that foot at 100%. Take a day off.”
