Chargers’ Gus Edwards is out for Patriots game, but look who might be back

LA Times  

The Chargers would love to have J.K. Dobbins back in the lineup this week, especially with fellow running back Gus Edwards out because of an ankle injury. The Chargers could get their leading rusher back Saturday against New England as running back J.K. Dobbins was a full participant in practice Thursday. He would give the Chargers a much-needed boost just as fellow running back Gus Edwards was ruled out for the game. Dobbins’ injury contributed to a downturn in the Chargers’ running game that went through a four-game stretch without eclipsing 100 yards rushing.
