Running back Austin Ekeler is questionable for the Chargers against the Patriots on Sunday due to a hip injury.
Ekeler was a full participant on Wednesday but felt soreness in his hip after practice. He was sidelined on Thursday and Friday, but coach Brandon Staley appeared as if he was trying to be cautious.
Ekeler is second in the AFC with seven touchdowns and fifth among running backs in scrimmage yards per game . He rushed for a career-high 117 yards in the Oct. 4 win over Las Vegas and has gone over 100 yards from scrimmage in four of the past five games. “Sometimes we’re not getting enough reps to really make a fair judgment on how those guys are doing in games, because Austin’s getting a heavy load,” offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi said. “But, I think it’s a work-in-progress to really see who that guy is.”
