Los Angeles Chargers Week 14 injury report: Latest on Ladd McConkey and more for SNF

The Los Angeles Chargers have one of the most important games of their season. They'll face the Kansas City Chiefs during Week 14's Sunday Night Football, and the game will be at the Arrowhead Stadium. There's not a more daunting task.

The Chargers currently hold an 8-4 record, and while they're well-positioned to return to the playoffs, a win would keep the AFC West race open, while a loss would hand the division to the Chiefs for the ninth straight year.

Chargers injury report for Week 14

Los Angeles has only one player designated as out for their contest against Kansas City apart from those who are on the injured reserve. However, some of their key players are set to become game-time decisions.

Ladd McConkey (WR), Tony Jefferson (S) and Junior Colson (LB) are all listed as questionable per the team's most recent injury report. Denzel Perryman's situation is tougher, as he has already been declared out.

Ladd McConkey injury update

The rookie wide receiver, who has been a pleasant surprise for the team during 2024, has had limited work in all three practice sessions leading up to the game. He's dealing with injuries to his knee and his shoulders, but it's the knee that concerns more about his status.

Recent information from ESPN's Jeremy Fowler states that the knee injury is not expected to be a major problem, and he's on track to play on Sunday. But it will depend on his level of comfort prior to the game.

Denzel Perryman injury update

The linebacker is dealing with a groin problem and will not feature against the Chiefs on Sunday. Although he was able to get some limited work through all three practice days, he's not healthy enough to play yet.

He has not played since the Chargers' game against the Cincinnati Bengals on November 17. He's having a great season as a run defender.

Junior Colson injury update

Colson will officially play on Sunday despite his questionable status. That's because he was activated from injured reserve on Saturday, occupying a roster spot. When teams activate players from the IR, this means they'll play again.

He was put into the injured reserve due to an ankle injury, missing four games. His return comes at an excellent time with Perryman still out.
