According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Verrett played through the injury in San Diego's past two games.
The former first-round pick played in just six games during his rookie season, but he exploded with 47 tackles, three interceptions, 12 pass deflections and one defensive touchdown over 14 contests in 2015.
