The Los Angeles Chargers will be without one of the game's leading running backs as Melvin Gordon is out with a hamstring injury. As a result, expect a heavy dose of Austin Ekeler and Justin Jackson. The Chargers also signed Detrez Newsome off their practice squad, so he may get in the mix as well.
The good news is the Bolts do get back a pair of players who have missed the majority of the season to date in Joe Barksdale and Travis Benjamin. Barksdale's return means the Chargers have their entire starting offensive line intact for the first time since the first quarter of Week 1.
As for the kicking game, Caleb Sturgis is inactive for the second straight week, meaning Michael Badgley will once again handle kicking duties.
Finally, Joey Bosa and Kyzir White were already ruled out while today's healthy scratches include Cole Toner, Trent Scott and Forrest Lamp
