Are young Chargers players willing to play through pain?

SAN DIEGO – The rash of injuries the San Diego Chargers have experienced this season has fans and media members questioning everything about how the team handles injuries.

Is the team’s strength and conditioning program doing enough during the offseason to prepare players for a marathon NFL season? Is the personnel department doing a good enough job of weeding out potential injury risks through the draft and free agency? And can players distinguish between a serious injury and a minor injury that they can still deal with and play through?

The questions are multi-layered and not easily answered.
