Player News
Branden Oliver (Achilles') was placed on injured reserve.
Oliver injured his Achilles tendon during Sunday's preseason game against the Vikings. The Chargers' depth at RB has taken a hit, and look for the team to explore adding some depth in the next few days.
Update: Branden Oliver (Achilles) is expected to miss an extended period of time.
It would seem likely that Oliver would miss most of the season after reportedly tearing his Achilles tendon in Sunday's preseason game. He was poised to be the back up to Melvin Gordon and Danny Woodhead as a versatile back but will not miss a good portion of, if not the whole season.
Update: Branden Oliver was diagnosed with an Achilles injury.
it now looks like Olivers ankle/leg injury has become an Achilles injury. Once again this is not good news for Oliver as he looked to contribute for the Chargers this year and this injury could put a minor hold on that.
RB Branden Oliver is leaving Sunday's preseason game after an apparent leg/ankle injury.
Oliver is currently skittle as the 3rd RB on the Charger depth chart behind Gordon and Woodhead. Hopefully this injury does not keep him out of action long.
