Colson (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports. Colson sustained an ankle injury in the Chargers' Week 9 win over the Browns, and his placement on IR on Wednesday suggests the issue is serious. The 2024 third-round pick from Michigan recorded 14 total tackles and one pass defended across six games before his injury. He'll now be forced to miss the Chargers next four games, with his earliest possible return coming in Week 14's matchup against the Chiefs.

Colson (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports. Colson sustained an ankle injury in the Chargers' Week 9 win over the Browns, and his placement on IR on Wednesday suggests the issue is serious. The 2024 third-round pick from Michigan recorded 14 total tackles and one pass defended across six games before his injury. He'll now be forced to miss the Chargers next four games, with his earliest possible return coming in Week 14's matchup against the Chiefs.
Colson (ankle) will not return to Sunday's game versus the Browns. Colson exited with an ankle injury, which is severe enough to keep him from returning. As a result, Troy Dye will likely back up Denzel Perryman at inside linebacker.
Colson is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup with the Browns due to an ankle injury. It is unclear how serious the ankle injury is for Colson. In his absence, Troy Dye is the likely candidate to backup Denzel Perryman at inside linebacker.
Colson (hamstring) was a full practice participant Thursday. A hamstring issue sidelined Colson both Week 3 and Week 4 ahead of the Chargers' Week 5 bye. The rookie linebacker logged a limited practice session Wednesday, but his step up to a full session Thursday suggests that he's in line to return to action Sunday versus Denver. Troy Dye could be limited to a special-teams role upon Colson's return.
Colson (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Colson missed the Chargers' last two games due to a hamstring injury he sustained in Week 2 against the Panthers. Los Angeles is coming off a bye, but it appears the rookie third-round pick is continuing to work through the hamstring issue. Colson's practice participation over the next two days will provide a better idea of his status heading into Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Colson (hamstring) did not practice Friday and he has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Colson will sit for a second straight week due to a hamstring injury he sustained in Week 2 against the Panthers. He has been unable to practice since his injury, but with the Chargers on a bye next week, he'll have more time to rehab and heal up ahead of Week 6 against the Broncos on Oct. 13. With Colson out Sunday, Troy Dye will once again serve as a rotational inside linebacker behind starters Daiyan Henley and Denzel Perryman.
Colson (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday. Colson exited the Chargers' Week 3 loss to the Steelers with a hamstring injury, and it appears that issue stopped him from practicing Wednesday. Colson's participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his potential availability in Week 4, but he'll likely need to practice in some capacity to face Kansas City on Sunday.
Colson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers. Colson missed practice all week after leaving Week 2 against the Panthers with the pulled hamstring. Denzel Perryman and Daiyan Henley will handle most of the linebacker reps against Pittsburgh. Shaquille Quarterman is next up as depth.
Colson (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game at Carolina. Colson was able to get to the Chargers' locker room under his own power. Until he's again healthy enough for football activities, though, the Chargers will probably have to lean more heavily on Denzel Perryman for snaps at linebacker than normal.
