Bolts From The Blue’s own Daniel Stebbins was at the Los Angeles Chargers joint practice with the New Orleans Saints today and reported that offensive tackle Joe Barksdale appeared to suffer an injury. Stebbins via Twitter:
It was encouraging news even initially that Barksdale was able to walk off the field under his own power after being attended to by the trainers. The knock he sustained still seemed to be lingering as Stebbins noted:
Barksdale on own walking, talking to trainer. He returned after the injury but it looks he’s still hurting

Hopefully, the Chargers starting right tackle is able to shake this off and get back on the field sooner rather than later.
