SAN DIEGO (AP) -Chargers receiver Chris Chambers remained sidelined Thursday with a sprained ankle.
Chambers, who leads the Chargers with five touchdown catches, hasn’t practiced since hurting his ankle in a loss at Miami on Oct. 5.
Chambers remains uncertain when he will return, but said he’s experienced no setbacks during his rehabilitation.
“Not at all,” said Chambers, who has 11 catches for 226 yards. “It’s progressively getting better. I did more today, and every day it is getting better.”
Whether his ankle heals in time for San Diego’s game at Buffalo this weekend – followed by a game in London against New Orleans – remains to be seen.
“I definitely don’t want to rush back. I have to be patient,” he said. “But I definitely don’t want to miss any more games, so we’ll see. It will probably be a game-time deal.”
