Kenneth Murray Jr. News
Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Kenneth Murray (ankle) returned to practice at training camp on Monday. Murray had offseason ankle surgery in April, but he's back at practice this summer and should be ready for Week 1 of the regular season against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders, barring any setbacks. The 23-year-old played in just 11 games last year due to his injury, but he had 107 tackles (68 solo), one sack, five tackles for loss and three passes defensed in 16 starts in his rookie campaign in 2020. With better health this season, Murray should be on the radar in IDP fantasy formats for a strong Chargers defense/special teams unit.
Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Kenneth Murray (ankle) remains on the Physically Unable to Perform list after having offseason ankle surgery, but there's a chance he'll return to practices before the end of training camp. "I'm hoping it's some point during camp. We're not close yet, but he is improving, and he's getting more and more confident. Our goal for him was just to be here at some point during camp, and I think that goal is achievable," head coach Brandon Staley said when asked how close Murray is to returning. The 23-year-old missed five weeks in 2021, and the Chargers aren't rushing him back. If he returns during training camp, he'll have a chance to be ready for Week 1 of the regular season. Murray had 107 tackles (68 solo) and a sack in 16 games in his rookie season in 2020 after he was a first-round pick.
The Los Angeles Chargers placed linebacker Kenneth Murray (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Monday with an ankle injury that he suffered in practice on Saturday. Murray was listed as questionable to face the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday night, but now he'll be forced to miss the next three weeks. The good news is that he's likely to return after that, according to a source. The 22-year-old had to be carted off the field on Saturday, so the Bolts are lucky that he's not out longer. Murray has recorded 19 tackles and a fumble recovery in the first three games of the 2021 season. In his absence, expect Drue Tranquill and Nick Niemann to see more playing time in the middle of the Chargers defense.
