Ryan Mathews: (Knee) Slated To Undergo MRI
Mathews, who left Sunday's game against the Seahawks with a right knee injury, is scheduled to undergo an MRI, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.
Analysis:
The Chargers are reportedly worried that the injury is a sprained MCL, which would likely mean a multi-week absence. Mathews was carted off the field early in the fourth quarter, after hurting himself while trying to recover his own fumble. He was deemed questionable to return, with the designation seeming rather optimistic. Should Mathews miss any time beyond Sunday, Donald Brown would be in line for a significant jump in snaps and touches.
