Gus Edwards Won't play Week 17

The Chargers have ruled Edwards (ankle) out for Saturday's game against the Patriots.

Though Edwards was listed as a limited participant in both of the Chargers' first two Week 17 practices, he didn't display enough progress in his recovery from the ankle injury for the team to feel comfortable clearing him for Saturday's contest. His absence currently leaves Kimani Vidal and Hassan Haskins as the lone healthy options at running back on the active roster, though J.K. Dobbins (knee) -- who is listed as questionable -- could be activated from injured reserve ahead of Saturday's game and settle back in as Los Angeles' lead option out of the backfield.
