Expect Steve Williams or Richard Marshall to start at nickle-back for Verrett.
Inactive for the Chargers are running back Ryan Mathews, linebacker Manti Te’o, linebacker Reggie Walker, center Rich Ohrnberger, wide receiver Dontrell Inman and cornerback Shareece Wright.

Ohrnberger hasn’t been able to practice the past two weeks due to a back injury and was listed as doubtful to play heading into today.
The Chargers will start veteran offensive-lineman Doug Legursky once again at center for the Chargers. The Chargers signed Doug Legursky earlier this month to improve their offensive line depth, after placing center Nick Hardwick on season-ending injured reserve with another neck injury.
