Chargers' Austin Ekeler: Could return next week
Ekeler, who is dealing with what Tom Pelissero of NFL Network describes as a higher-type ankle sprain, is hopeful regarding a possible return to action next weekend against the Raiders.
That said, Pelissero suggests that with the Chargers on bye in Week 5, the team could elect to err on the side of caution with its top back versus Las Vegas in Week 4. As long as Ekeler is sidelined, Joshua Kelley is slated to lead Los Angeles' backfield, with Elijah Dotson and Isaiah Spiller also on hand to log complementary snaps.

Chargers' Austin Ekeler: Not expected to practice Friday
Ekeler (ankle) isn't expected to practice Friday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Ekeler, who was inactive Week 2, also missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, and the running back's expected absence Friday clouds his status for Sunday's game against the Vikings. If Ekeler remains out this weekend, Joshua Kelley would be in line to lead the Chargers' Week 3 backfield, with Elijah Dotson and Isaiah Spiller in reserve.

Chargers' Austin Ekeler: Misses another practice
Ekeler (ankle) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
With Ekeler having now missed the Chargers' first two Week 3 practices, his activity at Friday's session will be crucial with regard to his chances of playing Sunday against the Vikings. If the running back remains out this weekend, Joshua Kelley would once again be in line to lead the Chargers backfield in Week 3.

Chargers' Austin Ekeler: Remains sidelined Wednesday
Ekeler (ankle) isn't practicing Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN.com reports.
Head coach Brandon Staley said Monday that there's "no timeline" for Ekeler's return from the ankle injury that kept him out for this past Sunday's loss to the Titans, so it's no surprise that the star running back isn't practicing Wednesday. If Ekeler isn't ready to play this weekend at Minnesota, Joshua Kelley would be in line to handle the majority of backfield touches against a Vikings defense that allowed 259 rushing yards to the Eagles in Week 2.
