The Chargers’ offensive front is pretty banged up, but it appears they’ll get one of their top playmakers back for Sunday’s wild-card game against the Patriots.
Chargers running back Omarion Hampton told reporters that he plans to play on Sunday night despite being ruled questionable with an ankle injury. Hampton returned to practice on Friday after missing the first two practices this week, although he was seen wearing a large brace around his injured right ankle.
Hampton emerged as a key player for the Chargers early on in his rookie season, rushing for 314 yards on 4.
