Daiyan Henley - Practices in full Thursday Henley (illness) logged a full practice session Thursday.

Impact Henley was a limited participant Wednesday due to an illness, but he appears to have made a quick recovery given his upgrade to a full session Thursday. The second-year linebacker has emerged as a tackling machine -- and an intriguing IDP asset -- recently with three consecutive weeks of double-digit stops. Henley has tallied 40 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, during that span and could be in for another big game Sunday against a Bengals squad that has given up the 11th-most tackles to opposing linebackers this season.

Chargers vs. Bengals Injury Report – Week 11, 2024

Stone Smartt - Limited in practice Wednesday Smartt (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday.

Impact Smartt has been sidelined for the Chargers' last two regular-season games due to an ankle injury. He'll have two more chances this week to increase his practice participation ahead of Sunday's game against Cincinnati.

Daiyan Henley - Working through illness Henley was limited in Wednesday's practice due to an illness.

Impact Henley has been the Chargers' most productive tackler over the past three games, during which he has logged 40 tackles (25 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two pass defenses. He'll have two more chances to return to practice this week ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Joey Bosa - Continues to work through hip issue Bosa (hip) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Bosa has played through a hip injury over the Chargers' last three games, which has limited him to 18 defensive snaps in each of those contests. His snap count in Week 11 against the Bengals will likely be capped unless he's able to practice without limitations over the next two days.

Kristian Fulton - Opens week limited Fulton (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

Impact Despite his limited participation, Fulton told reporters after Wednesday's practice that he feels 100 percent and plans to play against the Bengals on Sunday, per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com. Fulton has been sidelined with a hamstring injury for the Chargers' last two regular-season games, but his return for Week 11 would be timely as he would face off against Bengals' superstar wideout and former LSU teammate Ja'Marr Chase.

Khalil Mack - Opens week as DNP Mack (groin) didn't practice Wednesday.

Impact Mack came into Sunday's win over the Titans battling a groin issue and despite being active, played just four defensive snaps. Wednesday's DNP suggests that he could also be in jeopardy of missing the Chargers' Week 11 matchup Bengals. If Mack can't upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday, Joey Bosa (hip) will likely see increased work as an edge rusher with the Chargers' first-team defense.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Trey Pipkins III - Still dealing with ankle injury Pipkins (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Pipkins missed the Chargers' Week 10 win over the Titans after logging two consecutive DNPs to end Los Angeles' week of practice, and Wednesday's limited session suggests he's still dealing with his ankle issue. The 28-year-old's participation in practice Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can return in Week 11, when the Chargers host the Bengals.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Gus Edwards - Limited at practice Wednesday Edwards (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Impact In his return from a four-game absence due to an ankle injury, Edwards logged 15 snaps, while carrying the ball 10 times for 55 yards in a 27-17 win over the Titans on Sunday. With no reported setbacks, it's plausible that Edwards' limitations Wednesday were a case of workload management in the wake of his prior layoff. The running back now has two more chances to upgrade to full practice participation ahead of Sunday night's game against the Bengals.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Deane Leonard - Practice window opens Head coach Jim Harbaugh told reporters that Leonard's (hamstring) 21-day practice window opened Wednesday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

Impact Leonard logged a limited practice session Wednesday following his designation to return from injured reserve, suggesting he could see the field as soon as the Chargers' Week 11 matchup against the Bengals. However, the third-year pro from Ole Miss must still be activated to the Chargers' active roster in order to play Sunday. If Leonard remains out in Week 11, expect Tarheeb Still to continue seeing increased reps with Los Angeles' first-team secondary.

2024 NFL Week 11 picks, predictions: Back underdog Chiefs to cover

Hayden Hurst - Held catchless in win Hurst was unable to secure his lone target in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Titans.

Impact Hurst saw just one target for the second-straight week, as the veteran continues to be clearly behind Will Dissly in the Chargers' tight end pecking order. The 31-year-old played just nine of Los Angeles' 59 offensive snaps, behind both Dissly (32) and Tucker Fisk (23). With such limited usage and production in 2024, Hurst is far from a reliable fantasy option heading into a Week 11 matchup against the Bengals.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Elijah Molden - Records eight stops Sunday Molden racked up eight tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 27-17 Week 10 win against Tennessee.

Impact Molden finished second on the Chargers in tackles behind linebacker Daiyan Henley. Molden's eight stops tied his season-high mark, which he first established in Week 4 against Kansas City. The defensive back has played at least 85 percent of the Chargers' defensive snaps each of the past three weeks and has tallied 19 tackles and an interception over that span.

Schrager's Cheat Sheet: Jake Bates' improbable rise from brick salesman to star kicker

Will Dissly - Leads team in targets, receptions Dissly caught five of his six targets for 30 yards in the 27-17 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Impact Dissly led the team in targets and receptions, but he was effectively just a checkdown option in a game in which the Chargers attempted just 18 passes total. The seventh-year veteran does seem to have pushed Hayden Hurst out of the pass-catching tight end platoon role, as Hurst played just eight snaps for a second consecutive week. The lack of volume in the Los Angeles pass attacking will limit Dissly's fantasy production most weeks.

Hassan Haskins - Scores touchdown against former team Haskins tallied two carries for four yards and a touchdown in the 27-17 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Impact The Chargers seemed to do Haskins a solid against his former team, as the second-year running back was handed a one-yard touchdown run late in the second half after J.K. Dobbins effectively ran the entire way down the field. With Gus Edwards (ankle) back in the fold, it's important to note Haskins played ahead of Kimani Vidal, who was a healthy inactive, but that still led to just five offensive snaps total.

DJ Chark Jr. - Plays one snap in season debut Chark played one offensive snap in the 27-17 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Impact Chark finally made his season debut after missing the past nine games due to a groin injury, but in a matchup that significantly favored the Chargers from the jump, the veteran figured to be a smaller cog in a run-heavy offense. It'll be interesting to see if Chark gets more run against a Cincinnati pass defense next week that has been incredibly vulnerable this season.
