Chargers list Denzel Perryman as doubtful, 3 as questionable for Week 14

The Chargers will be without their starting linebacker for the third straight week.

The Chargers will likely be without linebacker Denzel Perryman, as he was listed as doubtful on the final injury report ahead of the Week 14 game against the Chiefs.

Perryman has missed the last two games with a groin injury.

Heading into Sunday night, three players are questionable: Wide receiver Ladd McConkey (knee/shoulder), safety Tony Jefferson (hamstring) and linebacker Junior Colson (hamstring).

The Bolts are hopeful that McConkey can play this weekend.

“Shoot, if I can play, I’m gonna play. At the end of the day, I’m gonna do whatever I need to do to get out there,” McConkey said when asked if he expects to play against Kansas City.

After being limited on Wednesday and Thursday, Colson was a full participant on Friday.

Colson, the rookie out of Michigan, was designated to return from injured reserve. He has been sidelined for the last four games due to an ankle injury he suffered in Week 9 against the Browns.

Georgia WR Ladd McConkey asked about Peach Bowl status

Ladd McConkey asked about injury status ahead of Peach Bowl..

Georgia receiver Ladd McConkey suffered a knee injury in UGA’s SEC Championship win over LSU on Dec. 4.

After the game, coach Kirby Smart confirmed the injury was tendinitis that McConkey had been dealing with for some time.

The redshirt sophomore was held out of some practices leading up to the Peach Bowl matchup versus Ohio State to rehab the injury and was not seen at Wednesday’s workout.

McConkey was asked about his status for the game in a media session on Thursday.

“That’s a coach (Kirby) Smart question. I can’t answer that,” McConkey said.

McConkey added that injury questions are only to be answered by Smart.

“Oh, yeah, that’s just coach Smart’s question to answer. That’s our team rule. He answers all the questions about team injuries.”

Smart had a predictable answer to the same question.

“We’ll see Saturday,” he said.

McConkey has been a large part of Georgia’s offensive attack this season.

The Chatsworth, Georgia, native leads UGA wideouts with 51 catches for 675 yards and five touchdowns, while adding six carries for 120 yards and two scores on the ground.
