The Chargers dropped their final injury report of Week One and it’s about as clean as you could ask for.
Edge rusher Tuli Tuipulotu (hip) is listed as questionable after being a limited participant at practice for most of the week. He dealt with a lower-body injury to begin training camp and it looks like the team is still playing it cautious with him now that the regular season is here.
Cornerback Deane Leonard is the only player listed as out for Sunday’s game after missing the entire week of practice. Leonard is the team’s fourth cornerback and the best coverage player on special teams. His presence will be missed in the third phase of the game.
With Leonard out, expect Nikko Reed or Kaiir Elam to be elevated for game day. Reed likely gets the nod as he has the greater experience pool in O’Leary’s defense over Elam who was just signed following final cuts at the start of the month.
