Chargers' Oronde Gadsden: Healthy scratch vs. Chiefs
Rotowire
Gadsden (coach's decision) is listed as inactive for Friday's game versus Kansas City, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
The Chargers apparently feel good rolling into Week 1 with just Will Dissly and Tyler Conklin available at tight end, so Gadsden will have to wait at least another week to make his regular-season debut. His absence might mean a few more snaps from the slot for Keenan Allen.
Becton (illness) is active for Friday night's season opener against the Chiefs.
Becton had been listed as questionable after being added to the injury report Friday morning with an illness, but he'll be available for Week 1 action, after all. Assuming no setbacks, Becton is slated to work as the Chargers' starting right guard Friday.
Becton (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday night's game against the Chiefs.
The first-year Charger was a late addition to the team's injury report after coming down with an illness that could jeopardize his availability in Week 1. If Becton is unable to play through this illness Friday night, expect Jamaree Salyer to work with Los Angeles' first-team offensive line.
