Overview
- Alt exited in the second quarter after being rolled up on and was carted off, listed as questionable to return, and did not re-enter the game.
- ESPN reports the left tackle is believed to have suffered another high right ankle sprain that could require a medical procedure, pending confirmation.
- The Chargers plan an MRI on Monday to determine the severity and next steps for the 22-year-old, who missed three games earlier this season with the same ankle.
- Los Angeles beat Tennessee 27-20, but the offensive line was further depleted with right tackle Bobby Hart leaving early and multiple starters already out, including Rashawn Slater.
- Team performance data underscore Alt’s importance: the Chargers are unbeaten in games he finishes, Justin Herbert’s QBR drops from about 80 to 56 without him, and pass-block win rate falls to a league-worst 48% when he is out.
