Chargers' Najee Harris Injures Achilles Tendon During Non-Contact Play Against Broncos
- Najee Harris, running back for the Los Angeles Chargers, injured his left ankle during a non-contact play against the Denver Broncos on Sunday in Inglewood, California.
- Harris missed the entire training camp due to a minor eye injury sustained during a fireworks accident on July 4, but after signing as a free agent in March, he was prepared to start the season.
- During the game, Harris carried the ball six times for 28 yards and seemed poised to deliver his best performance yet, as the Chargers came off back-to-back victories against Kansas City and Las Vegas.
- After collapsing and grabbing his left calf during a second-quarter backfield run, Harris was helped off on a medical cart as the Chargers questioned his return and planned further tests.
- The injury could sideline Harris for an extended period, placing more workload on rookie Omarion Hampton, who has shown promise with 23 carries for 72 yards this season.
