INGLEWOOD, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Chargers could be significantly shorthanded for Saturday's playoff-clinching game against the New England Patriots.
Los Angeles ruled out running back Gus Edwards (ankle) and listed running back J.K. Dobbins (MCL sprain) as questionable Thursday. Saturday is the most important game of the Chargers' season, as a win secures them a playoff spot.
Coach Jim Harbaugh said Edwards sustained his ankle injury in the team's win over the Denver Broncos last Thursday and aggravated his ankle in practice this week. Edwards missed four games on injured reserve with an ankle injury earlier this season, but Harbaugh said he was unsure whether it was the same ankle.
