Chargers Rule Out Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins Questionable for Playoff-Deciding Game

Los Angeles faces potential backfield challenges as they aim to secure a playoff spot against the New England Patriots on Saturday.

  • Running back Gus Edwards has been officially ruled out for Saturday's game due to an ankle injury sustained and aggravated during practice this week.
  • J.K. Dobbins, recovering from a knee injury, is listed as questionable after limited participation in practice following a four-game absence.
  • The Chargers need a win or tie against the Patriots to clinch a playoff berth, making this matchup critical for their postseason hopes.
  • If both Edwards and Dobbins are unavailable, the team will rely on rookie Kimani Vidal and Hassan Haskins to lead the running game.
  • Offensive lineman Trey Pipkins III (hip) and linebacker Denzel Perryman (groin) have also been ruled out for the game, adding to the Chargers' injury concerns.
