Chargers | Russell Okung won’t be ready
Los Angeles Chargers OT Russell Okung (heart) will not be ready to start the season as the team wants to make sure he’s fully healthy.
Footballguys View: It’s time to plan on Okung being out for the year. He might return at some point this season, but it is difficult to project when. The Chargers have Trent Scott and Sam Tevi at tackle, a duo that is probably in the bottom three league-wide. That’s not great for the offense’s fantasy outlook.
