Chargers | RB Najee Harris being moved to the active roster Tue Aug 26, 04:11 PM
The Chargers are moving RB Najee Harris to the active roster from the non-football injury list, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero.
| Footballguys view: Harris is recovering from injuries, facial and otherwise, sustained in a fireworks accident, but has been working and getting ready. This development is an indication he's getting close. Remember, Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz told reporters over the weekend that Harris could be available for the team's Week 1 game against the Chiefs in Brazil. We know the plan is for somebody to share the workload with rookie Omarion Hampton, and Harris will be that somebody once he's up to speed. |

Link to story Chargers | Najee Harris could play in Week 1 Sun Aug 24, 11:55 AM
Los Angeles Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz is optimistic that RB Najee Harris (eye) will be ready to play in Week 1's game versus the Kansas City Chiefs.
| Footballguys view: Harris's eye injury has been surrounded by mystery. This is the first truly positive update we have gotten, as Jim Harbaugh was disturbingly vague when asked about Harris during camp. If Harris is ready for Week 1, that's going to make it harder for Omarion Hampton to have a big instant impact in fantasy leagues. Harris should stay in the back half of drafts, as he'll only have significant value if Hampton gets hurt. |

Chargers | Quentin Johnston in concussion protocol Fri Aug 22, 04:15 PM
Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (concussion) is in concussion protocol, according to ESPN.com's Kris Rhim. Head coach Jim Harbaugh had no update on his status for Week 1.
| Footballguys view: Johnston has two weeks to recover before the season opener against the Chiefs. If he's not ready for the game - which is on a Friday in Brazil - then Keenan Allen could be on the field enough to consider playing in deep PPR leagues. |

Los Angeles Chargers RB Najee Harris (eye) has no timetable set for his return. When asked about a return date on Thursday, Aug. 21, head coach Jim Harbaugh said, 'When Najee's ready to play, he'll be ready to play.'
| Footballguys view: Harris will be ready when he's ready...which means what? We'll just have to wait and see what his availability is during the week of practice before Week 1. Harris will split time with rookie first-round pick Omarion Hampton. |

Chargers | Quentin Johnston carted off Sun Aug 17, 09:38 AM
Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (neck) was down on the field for several minutes after taking a big hit during the preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams Saturday, Aug. 16. Johnston was eventually able to stand before being carted off.
| Footballguys view: Johnston was on the field ahead of rookies Tre Harris and Keandre Lambert-Smith, and was the #2 receiver, with Keenan Allen operating as the #3. This was reported later as a concussion. We'll be monitoring for updates, but know that if healthy, Johnston is still in a big role in this passing game. |

Chargers | Omarion Hampton likely in rotation Wed Aug 13, 12:23 AM
Los Angeles Chargers RB Omarion Hampton will rotate with another back in Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs, even if RB Najee Harris (eye) isn't ready to start the season, offensive coordinator Greg Roman indicated Tuesday, Aug. 12.
| Footballguys view: The Chargers should run the heck out of the ball this year, and that's going to come with two backs getting the workload. Hampton has the makings of a star in this league, but he will be splitting time and getting a breather. Harris should be that guy to work in tandem with the rookie in the Chargers backfield. |

Chargers | Najee Harris participates in drills Tue Aug 12, 07:59 PM
Los Angeles Chargers RB Najee Harris (eye) was able to run and participate in drills with a football Tuesday, Aug. 12, for the first time during training camp. He was working off to the side with an athletic trainer during the team practice. His agent reiterated that Harris is expected to be ready for the regular season.
| Footballguys view: The progression to running and doing football drills at practice is a positive sign for Harris. A picture posted to Harris' Snapchat on Aug. 6 showed him with his left eye completely shut. Head coach Jim Harbaugh said last Friday, however, that Harris can open his eye. Meanwhile, offensive coordinator Greg Roman said that even if Harris isn't back for Week 1, rookie Omarion Hampton will rotate with another running back. Kimani Vidal, Raheim Sanders, Hassan Haskins, and Nyheim Miller-Hines are the players vying for that third-team spot. |

Link to story Chargers | Tre Harris dogged by lack of consistency Tue Aug 12, 12:38 AM
Los Angeles Chargers WR Tre Harris has seen his first training camp 'marred by inconsistency,' according to ESPN's Kris Rhim, who writes that Harris had two dropped balls in practice on Friday, Aug. 9, but also had a contested catch for a touchdown. Rhim indicated that Harris' play in camp has 'fluctuated between exemplary and poor.'
| Footballguys view: Harris had 15 drops in college at Ole Miss, including five in eight games as a senior. He'll need to rectify that to earn playing time as a rookie this season. With Keenan Allen returning to the team, Harris will have to work to earn a contributing role off the bench. Footballguy Matt Waldman suggests Harris will likely generate enough big plays to get fans and fantasy analysts excited and calling for him ahead of Quentin Johnston -- even if the consistency doesn't merit it. |

Los Angeles Chargers RB Najee Harris (eye) isn't a guarantee to play in Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs in Brazil. Head coach Jim Harbaugh was non-committal about the tailback's potential to play in the regular-season opener. 'There's a chance he is,' Harbaugh said Friday, Aug. 8, when asked if there is a chance Harris won't be ready. 'I don't comment because I'm not a doctor. I'm not Mr. Harris' agent, either. I'm talking about what I know, and 'Can he open his eye?' 'Yeah'. I've looked into his eye. I can tell you stuff like that.'

| Footballguys view: This is a big blow for the Chargers offense, although there's still room for growth with Justin Herbert much healthier than he was at this time last year, when he was battling plantar fasciitis. Herbert also has a year under his belt in the Harbaugh/Roman offense, and the team has made multiple additions to the wide receiver room, led by the return of Keenan Allen. |

Los Angeles Chargers RB Najee Harris (eye) still does not have a timetable for his return, and head coach Jim Harbaugh indicated that Harris' availability for Week 1 is uncertain.
| Footballguys view: This injury is very mysterious, as it's hard to figure why an eye injury would relegate Harris such little physical activity. The door is wide open to Omarion Hampton taking over this backfield from day one. You'll need to take him in the third round of your redraft league if you want him. |

Link to story Chargers | Rashawn Slater carted off Thu Aug 7, 02:12 PM
Los Angeles Chargers OT Rashawn Slater (leg) was carted off the field Thursday, Aug. 7, after suffering an apparent left leg injury during practice.
| Footballguys view: Less than two weeks ago, the Chargers signed Slater to a four-year, $114 million contract extension. He did battle foot problems this offseason, but apparently this injury has nothing to do with that. If he misses time, the Chargers offense would not look the same without one of their best linemen. |
