Chargers Week 11 Inactives: LBs Christiansen, Bello both active

The Chargers announced their inactives for Sunday’s contest against the Jets, and the list of six players is highlighted by a second-year linebacker who has consistently been one of the team’s special teams stalwarts in 2020.

Emeke Egbule, the team’s sixth-round pick in 2019, will be inactive despite the team being without starting WILL linebacker Kyzir White.

The other inactive players include quarterback Easton Stick, offensive guard/tackle Tyree St. Louis, offensive tackle Storm Norton, defensive end Jessie Lemonier, and defensive tackle Cortez Broughton.

Anthony Lynn told the media this week that both linebackers Cole Christiansen and B.J. Bello would be promoted from the practice squad, with the plan for both being a chance to prove they can help the team fix their special teams woes.

Christiansen was signed in 2020 as an undrafted free agent out of West Point. Bello was most recently with the New York Jets, and was originally signed as a UDFA with the Cleveland Browns in 2017.
