Chargers’ edge rusher Khalil Mack avoids significant injury layoff
Khalil Mack will miss at least four weeks due to a dislocated elbow sustained in Week 2, but the injury is not season-ending, Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh confirmed.
- Khalil Mack left the Chargers' Monday night win over the Raiders with a dislocated left elbow, forcing him out of the game.
- Mack's injury occurred during a first-quarter tackle attempt and was initially uncertain but later confirmed not to be season-ending.
- Caleb Murphy increased his workload in Mack's absence, playing 31 defensive snaps and recording one quarterback pressure while Bud Dupree also struggled to generate pressure.
- Mack, who agreed to a one-season contract worth $18 million earlier this year and recorded 17.0 sacks in 2023, is expected to return within a few weeks after being placed on injured reserve.
- The Chargers face a challenge replacing Mack for upcoming games but expect him back well before their Week 12 bye, potentially seeking additional edge rushers in free agency.
