Los Angeles Chargers All-Pro Offensive Lineman Rashawn Slater left Thursday’s practice on the back of a medical carriage after apparently injured his left leg.
The chargers did not immediately give an update on Slater’s status.
Defensive coordinator Jesse Mint said he didn’t see the game where slater was injured. Keenan Allen, who recently went with chargers, said he also missed the moment his teammate was injured.
“I was on the play, so I turned around and he was down. I didn’t know what happened,” Allen said.
