Chargers Wednesday injury report: Ladd McConkey among notable names

The Chargers released their first injury report ahead of their Week 2 match against the Raiders. Find out who did not practice.

The Los Angeles Chargers released their preliminary injury report prior to their Week 2 clash against the Raiders. Five team members did not practice, among them wide receiver Ladd McConkey, who is nursing a rib injury sustained during Sunday's defeat to the Cardinals. Veteran edge rusher Khalil Mack also missed practice to allow his body to rest.

Defensive back Elijah Molden is managing a hamstring injury, guard Trey Pipkins III suffers from a knee issue, while defensive lineman Teair Tart is nursing an ankle injury. Molden, Pipkins, and Tart were absent from practice sessions. Defensive back Deane Leonard, who missed Week 1 with an abdominal injury, was upgraded to limited participation.

Defensive line Dalvin Tomlinson was also limited due to a hamstring issue. Wide receiver Derius Davis and Ahkeem Mesidor are both dealing with calf injuries; however, they took part fully in Wednesday's practice. Although nine players are listed on the injury report, McConkey is the most significant name on the list. He is classified as day-to-day and could potentially play against the Raiders.

The 24-year-old left the Week 1 game against the Cardinals early in the third quarter. Before departing, McConkey caught five passes on seven targets for 82 yards and a touchdown. Following McConkey's exit, the Chargers' offense seemed to falter. The team's Thursday injury report may offer more insight into whether McConkey has a chance to participate.
