Austin Ekeler Remains In Concussion Protocol
6 years agoLos Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol, according to head coach Anthony Lynn. Ekeler sat out last Thursday's game, but there is a decent chance he'll play in Week 16 against the Ravens on Saturday if he can clear the protocol at some point this week. However, with Melvin Gordon (knee) expected to return from a three-game absence, Ekeler would merely be an RB3/flex in PPR leagues. If Ekeler misses another game, rookie Justin Jackson would serve as the change-of-pace back behind Gordon.
