After a physical game in Oakland, Chargers head coach Norv Turner was playing coy during his Tuesday press conference about a series of injuries that ripped through his squad.
(due to NFL rules we had to take down Turner’s audio after24 hours. Here is the transcript of what he said:)
“From an injury standpoint, you saw the guys who came out of the game. Nick Hardwick has a sprained ankle, and he’ll be evaluated every day. I would not expect him to practice tomorrow. LT has a sprained ankle, he’ll be evaluated every day. I would not expect him to practice tomorrow. Louis Vasquez has a sprained knee. I would not expect him to practice tomorrow but again, it’s a day-to-day deal. Jamal Williams, he’s had issues with his elbow, he sprained it a little bit. Same deal, I would not expect him to practice tomorrow. Luis Castillo, sprained elbow, and I’d put him in the same category.”
Turner did not elaborate further on any of the injuries, refused to say which lineman (Vasquez or Hardwick) was more likely to play on Sunday, and said only that he would be sure to suit up eight offensive lineman on Sunday against Baltimore. The injuries Monday night left the Chargers without any further backup linemen.
