Tucker Fisk Tucker Fisk Ruled out for Monday
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 3:08 PM
The Chargers have ruled out Fisk (ankle) for Monday's game against the Eagles.
Analysis: Fisk was unable to practice this week with an ankle injury. It's unclear when he was injured, as he saw 26 snaps on offense in Week 13, on par with the rest of the season. Oronde Gadsden should not see much of a role change; however, Will Dissly and Tyler Conklin could see a higher snap count and larger role in the blocking game in Fisk's absence. |

Hassan Haskins Hassan Haskins Questionable for Monday
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 2:42 PM
Haskins (hamstring) is questionable for Monday night's game versus the Eagles, but he remains on injured reserve.
Analysis: Haskins was a full participant in his second practice back since being placed on injured reserve in Week 8. It's still unclear if the 26-year-old will be activated for the Chargers' Week 14 game, but if he is, the team could be getting two additions to the backfield against the Eagles, as 2025 first-round pick Omarion Hampton's return is trending in a positive direction, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. Should Hampton be activated off injured reserve, he will likely take a majority of the RB reps. It's yet to be known what Haskin's role would be, as Kimani Vidal is also healthy. |

Omarion Hampton Omarion Hampton Questionable for Monday, still on IR
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 2:04 PM
Hampton (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game versus the Eagles, but he remains on injured reserve.
Analysis: After Hampton logged a full practice Friday, it signaled that he was closing in on his first game action since Week 5, when he suffered a fracture in his left ankle. On Saturday, numerous NFL insiders, including Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com, reported that the Chargers were expected to activate Hampton from injured reserve for Week 14. Now that Hampton is deemed questionable, such a procedural move will need to take place by Monday afternoon for him to have a chance to return. Assuming that comes to pass, Hampton is a good bet to retake most of the RB reps from Kimani Vidal, who has dominated Los Angeles' backfield during the former's seven-game absence. |

Justin Herbert Justin Herbert Officially questionable for Monday
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 1:58 PM
Herbert (left hand) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Eagles.
Analysis: Herbert sustained a fracture in his left hand last Sunday against the Raiders and underwent surgery in the wake of the contest. He then opened Week 14 prep with back-to-back limited sessions Thursday and Friday, before being handed the ball when simulating taking snaps under center at Saturday's practice, per Daniel Popper of The Athletic. Herbert thus may log most of his reps in the shotgun Monday, assuming he's made active for that contest. |

Omarion Hampton Omarion Hampton In line for activation from IR
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 12:10 PM
The Chargers are expected to activate Hampton (ankle) from injured reserve ahead of Monday's game against the Eagles, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com and NFL reporter Jordan Schultz report.
Analysis: Hampton logged a full practice Friday for the first time since the Chargers designated him for return from injured reserve Nov. 25, getting him one step closer to his first game action since he suffered a fracture in his left ankle in Week 5. He's missed the last seven games as a result, but his imminent return will be a boon to the offense while also potentially wiping out a good portion of the value that fellow RB Kimani Vidal built up during Hampton's absence. In the end, Hampton appears set to be listed as questionable or without a designation when Los Angeles posts its final injury report of the week Saturday, and the team then will need to activate him from IR by Monday afternoon for him to have a chance to suit up in Week 14. |

Hassan Haskins Hassan Haskins Full participant Friday
Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 5:42 PM
Haskins (hamstring) was a full participant in Friday's practice.
Analysis: Haskins upgrades to a full participant in just his second practice back from his stint on injured reserve. It is unclear if the Chargers will want to remove the running back from injured reserve ahead of Monday's game against the Eagles, but an upgrade in practice participation is a great sign for the 26-year-old's health. |

Quentin Johnston Quentin Johnston Full practice Friday
Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 4:05 PM
Johnston (shoulder) was a full practice participant Friday.
Analysis: During Johnston's limited session Thursday, he was seen wearing a non-contact jersey, per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com. A return to all activity one day later indicates Johnston is good to go ahead of Monday's game versus the Eagles, but since a hot start to the season, he's taken a significant downturn in the Chargers offense, with just a 14-148-3 line on 28 targets over his last six appearances. |

Omarion Hampton Omarion Hampton Logs full practice Friday
Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 3:58 PM
Hampton (ankle) practiced fully Friday.
Analysis: Prior to Friday's uncapped session, Hampton had been listed as limited on the Chargers' previous four injury reports, so he's drawing ever closer to his first game action since he suffered a fracture in his left ankle Week 5. Per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, Hampton even was wearing a normal blue jersey and took part in the red-zone walkthrough Friday, yet another sign that he's trending in the right direction. Saturday's practice report will reveal if Hampton has a designation for a Week 14 matchup versus the Eagles, but Los Angeles will need to activate him from injured reserve by Monday afternoon in order for him to have a chance to log Week 14 action. |

Justin Herbert Justin Herbert Another limited session
Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 2:58 PM
Herbert (left hand) practiced in a limited capacity Friday, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Herbert missed a handful of plays in this past Sunday's win against the Raiders due to a left hand injury, for which he underwent surgery to stabilize a fracture Monday, according to Rhim. On Wednesday, Herbert told Rhim that "the plan is to prepare as if I'm going to play and see how the next couple of days goes." Herbert progressed enough by Friday to take snaps under center, per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, which generally is a good sign that he's trending in a positive direction. Saturday's injury report ultimately will reveal if he has a designation for Monday's contest against the Eagles. |

Hassan Haskins Hassan Haskins Officially returns to practice
Thu, Dec 4, 2025, 7:49 PM
Haskins (hamstring) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official website reports.
Analysis: Haskins made his official return to practice after the team designated him to return from injured reserve Wednesday. The running back has been sidelined since the beginning of November while recovering from a hamstring injury, and the team will have three weeks to add him to the active roster. |

Tucker Fisk Tucker Fisk Misses practice Thursday
Thu, Dec 4, 2025, 7:41 PM
Fisk (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official website reports.
Analysis: Fisk is dealing with an apparent ankle injury to open the week, forcing him to sit out the team's first practice ahead of Week 14. The tight end will have two more chances to return to practice prior to Monday night's matchup against the Eagles. |

Omarion Hampton Omarion Hampton Remains limited at practice
Thu, Dec 4, 2025, 6:01 PM
Hampton (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: The Chargers opened Hampton's 21-day practice window last Tuesday, but he wasn't activated from IR ahead of Week 13 action. While the running back still is limited at practice as Monday night's game against the Eagles approaches, coach Jim Harbaugh noted Wednesday that more will be known about Hampton's status "as the week unfolds...but what can I tell you, he's on track and looking good," Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports. |

Quentin Johnston Quentin Johnston Limited by shoulder injury
Thu, Dec 4, 2025, 5:52 PM
Johnston (shoulder) was limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com, Johnston wore a non-contact jersey during Thursday's session, with the Chargers' ensuing injury report revealing that the wideout is managing a shoulder issue. Johnston now has two more chances to upgrade his participation level ahead of Monday night's game against the Eagles. After recording five catches for 42 yards on 10 targets in Week 10, Johnston has been targeted three times in each of his last two outings, though he did manage to put up a 3-23-1 receiving line in this past Sunday's win over the Raiders. |

Justin Herbert Justin Herbert Limited practice Thursday
Thu, Dec 4, 2025, 5:40 PM
Herbert (left hand) was limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Herbert, who underwent surgery to stabilize a fracture in his left (non-throwing) hand Monday, sported a cast while tossing passes during Thursday's session, per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com. The QB now has two more chances to practice fully before injury designations for this coming Monday night's contest against the Eagles are posted, but on Wednesday, Herbert told Rhim that "the plan is to prepare as if I'm going to play and see how the next couple of days goes." For his part, coach Jim Harbaugh said the Chargers are optimistic Herbert will play versus Philadelphia, but they are preparing backup Trey Lance to start if necessary. |

Hassan Haskins Hassan Haskins Back to practice
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 6:34 PM
Haskins (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: This opened a 21-day window for Haskins to practice, and he can be activated at any time. The fourth-year running back practiced with the team Wednesday and could return to game action as soon as Sunday versus the Eagles. Once he returns to action, he's unlikely to have much of a role on offense because Omarion Hampton (ankle) is nearing a return and Kimani Vidal should serve as the No. 2 back. |

Justin Herbert Justin Herbert Considers himself day-to-day
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 5:50 PM
Herbert said the surgery he recently underwent on his left (non-throwing) hand went well and reiterated several times Wednesday that he's day-to-day and that his Week 14 status depends on the swelling in his hand, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Analysis: The QB added that having an extra day this week helps his cause on that front ahead of Monday night's game against the Eagles. Per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, Herbert noted Wednesday that he had a plate and multiple screws put in his hand during his procedure, which he says successfully "stabilized" the fractured he sustained during Week 13 action. For now, according to Kris Rhim of ESPN.com, Herbert is preparing as though he'll play against Philadelphia and hopes to test out his hand later this week. |

Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 5:07 PM
When asked Wednesday about the potential return of Hampton (ankle) for Monday night's game against the Eagles, coach Jim Harbaugh said "that question will be answered as the week unfolds...but what can I tell you, he's on track and looking good," Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Analysis: Hampton's 21-day practice window was opened last Tuesday, but the running back wasn't activated for Sunday's win over the Raiders after being limited at practice Wednesday through Friday. Added context regarding Hampton's Week 14 status will arrive via this Thursday's injury report, but it appears as though he's nearing a return to his first game action since Week 5. |

Analysis: For now, Herbert, who underwent surgery to stabilize a fracture in his left hand Monday, is considered day-to-day. Though the QB will be present for Wednesday's practice, he will not participate in the session, per Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site. Herbert's official practice status will be posted Thursday and Friday on the team's upcoming injury reports, with his game status set to be announced Saturday. |

Justin Herbert Justin Herbert At practice, won't participate
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 2:16 PM
Coach Jim Harbaugh said that Herbert (left hand) will be present, but won't participate in practice Wednesday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Analysis: The QB underwent surgery Monday to address a broken bone in his left hand, and at this stage the Chargers are not ready to say whether he'll be able to play Monday night against the Eagles, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Added context on that front will arrive when the team's Thursday injury report is posted, but if Herbert is unavailable in Week 14, Trey Lance would start in his place. |

Justin Herbert Justin Herbert Undergoes hand surgery, day-to-day
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 6:59 PM
The Chargers announced Monday that Herbert underwent surgery on his left hand, and the quarterback is considered day-to-day ahead of next Monday's game against the Eagles.
Analysis: After Herbert injured his left, non-throwing hand during Sunday's win against the Raiders, he wore a glove with a significant amount of padding, but he still completed 15 of 20 passes for 151 yards, two touchdowns and one interception while recording three carries for eight yards. Coach Jim Harbaugh revealed afterward that Herbert sustained a broken bone in that hand, and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported its exact nature as a metacarpal fracture on Monday morning. Rapoport also noted that the Chargers intend to have Herbert available for Week 14 action, but how he fares on the practice field Thursday through Saturday ultimately will determine whether it's him or backup Trey Lance under center next Monday. |
