The Chargers announced the fourth-year tight end suffered a tibia plateau fracture to his left knee in last week’s win over the Colts.

“Henry will continue to be evaluated, and the timeframe for his return has not yet been determined,” the team announced.

Of course, that’s the same injury that ended J.J. Watt‘s 20xx season, but it’s just the latest in Henry’s long list of problems.

He suffered a lacerated kidney late in the 2017 season, and suffered a torn ACL in the 2018 preseason.

Antonio Gates, 39, is still available if they want to drag him back again, as they did last season.

That's some wishful thinking. Look at the upcoming schedule they've got.

It'll take Rivers doing Phillip Rivers type shit for them to not be 5-0.

17/20 for 324 yards and 5 tds is a good line no matter who you are playing.

That is the truth

Also, the Chargers curse is absolutely REAL

Is anybody really taking Lamar Jackson over Patrick Mahomes in a win or go home scenario? I’m certainly not.

They just beat the Dolphins, who are openly tanking. Let’s see how they look in week 3.

I would typically agree, but I think this Dolphins team is different.

They aren’t even pretending to try. They’re all about the tank right now.

It took 3 missed kicks for them to not be 0-1.

Look at the highlights. One of his TD passes had two guys covering a receiver, one guy completely turned his back to the receiver while the ball was in the air like he was lost.

It was one of those, "Are you fucking serious?" moments.

I’m not saying they’re going to be, but the Chargers are dropping like flies, so nothing would surprise me at this point.

They drop like flies every single season. They're still a playoff squad.

At this rate though? You just know Bosa and Allen are going to get hurt at some point. Their OL is so bad that it’s a possibility they get Rivers killed.

And every season aside from last season, they've missed the playoffs. Look at the talent they've lost.

Melvin Gordon
Tyrell Williams (F/A)
Mike Williams
Derwin James
Hunter Henry
Russel Okung
Their kicker...
...and two of their corners.

What do they have left?

Rivers
Allen
Bosa
Engram.

Yes, they're still a playoff squad. That schedule is easy and until I see clear evidence that Rivers is falling off a cliff I'm not writing them off.

For every injury they get lately, they get some mega bullshit luck in their favor.

I’ll give you one thing that last part is true.

It looks like they’ll continue to get lucky and win these close games again this year. After seeing their performance against the Colts along with the injuries, there’s no doubt they will be in a lot of them again.
