Chargers' Denzel Perryman sidelined with ankle injury after season opener

The Los Angeles Chargers have placed linebacker Denzel Perryman on injured reserve with an ankle injury

SEPTEMBER 16, 2025 • Associated Press

Placed on injured reserve The Chargers placed Perryman (ankle) on injured reserve Monday.

Impact Perryman suffered a high-ankle sprain during the Chargers' Week 1 win over the Chiefs. The recovery timeline is 4-to-6 weeks, and an IR stint means that the veteran linebacker will be forced to miss at least four games, which makes Week 6 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Oct. 12. Troy Dye is expected to start alongside Daiyan Henley at inside linebacker for as long as Perryman is sidelined.

Out for Week 2 Perryman (ankle) won't play in the Chargers' matchup against the Raiders on Monday night.

Impact The veteran inside linebacker was unable to practice all week after sustaining a high-ankle sprain in the Chargers' Week 1 win over the Chiefs, so it's no surprise he'll be sidelined again Sunday. Perryman is an integral part of Los Angeles' defense, recording 55 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, over 11 contests in 2024. Troy Dye is expected to see increased defensive work as a rotational inside linebacker while Perryman is out in Week 2.

Opens week with DNP Perryman (ankle) did not participate in Thursday's practice.

Impact Perryman suffered a high-ankle sprain during the Chargers' Week 1 win over the Chiefs, which limited him to just eight defensive snaps and zero tackles. Perryman is a longshot to play against the Raiders on Monday, but a return to practice this week would give him a chance to play Week 2. Troy Dye will likely start alongside Daiyan Henley at inside linebacker if Perryman is in fact ruled out.

SEPTEMBER 8, 2025 • BOLTBEAT.COM

Week-to-week with high-ankle sprain Perryman is considered week-to-week due to a high-ankle sprain that he suffered during the Chargers' 27-21 win over the Chiefs on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Perryman played just eight snaps on defense and did not show up in the box score otherwise before the injury. Rapoport relays that a high-ankle sprain typically carries a 4-to-6 week timetable to return. That likely means that Perryman won't play Week 2 against the Raiders on Monday, Sept. 15, and the 2015 second-rounder is a candidate for a stint on injured reserve, which would force him to sit for at least four games while opening a spot on the Chargers' 53-man roster. Del'Shawn Phillips ended up playing 33 defensive snaps Friday and is the top candidate to start at inside linebacker alongside Daiyan Henley for as long as Perryman is sidelined.

Won't return vs. KC Perryman (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Friday's game against the Chiefs.

Impact Perryman will not return to Friday's regular-season opener after suffering an ankle injury in the first half, and he'll finish the game without recording a tackle. Del'Shawn Phillips and Troy Dye will continue to see more snaps at inside linebacker in Perryman's absence.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Exits with ankle injury Perryman is questionable to return to Friday's game against the Chiefs due to an ankle injury.

Impact Perryman suffered the injury in the first half of Friday's game, and he'll undergo further tests to determine the severity of his injury and whether he can return. Del'Shawn Phillips and Troy Dye are candidates to see a significant increase in snaps at inside linebacker alongside Daiyan Henley if Perryman is not cleared to return.
