Los Angeles Chargers get bad news ahead of kickoff vs. Kansas City Chiefs in Brazil at a position where they can hardly afford it

The Chargers didn't have any pressing injury concerns heading into this game on Friday, as both players listed on the final injury report were without game status designations. You can find the final injury report for both the Chiefs and Chargers for the Week 1 game here.

What does this mean for the Chiefs vs. Chargers Week 1 game in Brazil?

Los Angeles was already dealing with a significant blow to their offensive line after LT Rashawn Slater suffered a season-ending knee injury. As a result, they moved Joe Alt from the right tackle spot to left tackle, and Trey Pipkins came off the bench to start at right tackle. A questionable designation doesn't mean that Becton will be ruled out for the game, but the fact that the illness is enough to put his status in question is notable. If we're to believe the Chargers' unofficial depth chart, Jamaree Salyer would be the next man up at right guard for Los Angeles should Becton be unable to play. Currently, it's a possibility that the entire right side of the Chargers' offensive line will be comprised of backup players at kickoff. That's not great for a team that wants to establish the run, but also needs to protect Justin Herbert against Steve Spagnuolo's elaborate blitz schemes.
