The Wednesday injury report is always a key starting point in the road toward Sundays. Here's what we're looking at as we load up for the crucial contest coming up in San Diego:
| Name | POS | Injury | Wed. Status |
| Alex Carrington | DT | Knee | DNP |
| Damian Williams | WR | Hamstring | DNP |
| Lamarcus Joyner | CB | Groin | DNP |
| Cory Harkey | TE | Quad | DNP |
| Jared Cook | TE | Back | DNP |
| Davin Joseph | G | Not Injury Related | DNP |
| Marcus Roberson | CB | Ankle | DNP |
| Will Herring | LB | Foot | DNP |
| James Laurinaitis | LB | Foot | DNP |
| Daren Bates | LB | Groin | Full |
Don't panic. A lot of this is the grueling nature of the NFL season. The key is to see how guys are doing on Friday and then cross your fingers they don't exacerbate those injuries during the game. The big name for me is Laurinaitis, only because he was so absolutely crucial to the defensive effort last Sunday. The severity of the injury to Cook may slide him above Laurinaitis on the concern-o-meter.
Here's what the Chargers are dealing with:
| Name | POS | Injury | Wed. Status |
| Ryan Carrethers | DT | Elbow | DNP |
| Dwight Freeney | OLB | Not Injury Related | DNP |
| Rich Ohrnberger | C | Back/Ankle | DNP |
| Jahleel Addae | S | Concussion | Full |
| Sean Lissemore | NT | Quad | Full |
| Philip Rivers | QB | Chest | Full |
