Brandon Flowers

Chargers' secondary will also be without Brandon Flowers (concussion) Sunday

San Diego Chargers defensive back Brandon Flowers (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 5.

What It Means:

The Chargers will be short two of their top-three corners versus Derek Carr and the Oakland Raiders after it was announced earlier in the week that Jason Verrett would undergo season-ending ACL surgery. This will be the second straight absence for Flowers.

The Chargers defense ranks 10th by schedule-adjusted Defensive Passing Net Expected Points per play through four weeks.
