The LA Chargers injury report heading into Week 11 looks like a receipt from your local pharmacy. There's a long list of Chargers who have received some kind of injury designation this week, albeit not every injury will result in missing time.

The same cannot be said for the newest addition to the injury report. It's never a good sign when someone is added to the injury report on Thursday ahead of a Sunday game. It's even worse when that player logs a DNP.

Safety Elijah Molden, who has battled various injuries this season, was officially added to the Chargers injury report with a knee injury. He did not practice, and now his status against the Jacksonville Jaguars is up in the air.

Chargers injury report includes late Elijah Molden addition

Molden missed time with a hamstring injury early this year and has been playing through a broken finger. The knee injury is a new development that fans didn't see coming after Molden was a full participant on Wednesday.

The odds aren't in Molden's favor to play on Sunday. It's already tough for a player who didn't practice on Thursday to suit up three days later. It's even worse when that player suffered a new injury that resulted in them missing time.

The only other DNP logged on the injury report is Denzel Perryman, although he is not dealing with an injury. It was just a rest day for the veteran linebacker.

A slew of players were limited Thursday and they all have different situations heading into Sunday. Bud Dupree, Bobby Hart, Daiyan Henley, Ladd McConkey and Tarheeb Still were all limited. The likes of Henley and McConkey seem likely to play after suiting up last week. It's a bit more up in the air with Hart and Still as they missed last week. Dupree practiced in a limited capacity after a rest day.

Oronde Gadsden II is the biggest name fans are watching this week. Gadsden injured his knee last week and received an excellent diagnosis after running tests on Monday. Gadsden hasn't missed a practice this week, so it appears the standout rookie tight end will suit up against the Jaguars.

The likes of Keenan Allen, Khalil Mack, Teair Tart and Bradley Bozeman all missed Wednesday's practice. They were all rest days, and the quartet of veterans returned to practice in full capacity on Thursday.
