Chargers LT Joe Alt Carted Off With Ankle Injury, Listed as Questionable vs. Titans

Los Angeles already faces depleted tackle depth after Rashawn Slater's season-ending knee injury.

Overview

  • Alt went down in the second quarter in Nashville during the Chargers’ Week 9 game against the Titans.
  • He was hit from behind on an incomplete pass by former Charger Sebastian Joseph-Day, could not bear weight on his right leg, and was carted to the locker room.
  • The team announced an ankle injury and designated his status as questionable to return.
  • Alt previously sprained the same ankle on Sept. 28 against the Giants, missed three games, and returned on Oct. 23 versus the Vikings.
  • Right tackle Bobby Hart left earlier with a groin injury as lineup changes have followed injuries to Trey Pipkins III, and the Chargers held a 20-17 halftime lead.
