Late in the first half against the Panthers, Chargers rookie linebacker Junior Colson was seen walking to the locker room prior to the halftime break flanked by athletic trainers on either side. According to the Chargers, Colson sustained a hamstring injury and is questionable to return against Carolina.
The injury was not very evident, whenever it did happen, so one would believe it isn’t that serious and the coaching staff is rightfully being cautious in a game the Chargers currently lead 20-3.

Without Colson in the linebacker rotation, Denzel Perryman and Daiyan Henley will lead the Chargers defense.
