The Los Angeles Chargers are facing a challenging Week 4 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, grappling with significant injuries to key players including quarterback Justin Herbert, who aggravated a high ankle sprain, and All-Pro safety Derwin James, who is suspended for one game. The team's injury report lists 13 players, with six, including starting tackles Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt, marked as 'did not practice'.

Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh is under pressure to make crucial decisions regarding Herbert's availability and the offensive line's readiness. The outcome of this matchup will significantly impact both teams' standings in the AFC West.
