Chargers Injury Update: DTs Ogbonnia, Covington out for year

Just when you think things can’t get any worse for the Chargers when it comes to their injury luck, it absolutely, unequivocally, can.

Brandon Staley met with the media on Monday to give updates on the rash of injuries the team sustained during their 22-16 loss to the 49ers on Sunday night. There was a lot of bad news with a little bit of positive sprinkled in.

Per Staley, defensive tackles Otito Ogbonnia and Christian Covington are both expected to miss the rest of the regular season. Ogbonnia suffered a ruptured patellar tendon while Covington suffered a torn pectoral.
