Manages limited practice Tuesday Alt (ankle) was a limited participant at practice Tuesday.

Impact When asked by reporters if he would play Thursday versus the Vikings, Alt said, "that's the plan," per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com. He could do himself a huge favor on that front by practicing in full Wednesday - otherwise, he'll likely be carrying an injury designation into gameday in Week 8.

Returns to practice Thursday Alt (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Alt sustained a high-ankle sprain in Week 4 against the Giants, which has prevented him from playing or practicing prior to Thursday's session. His ability to practice in a limited capacity is an encouraging sign that he is progressing in his recovery, but he still faces an uphill battle to make his return Sunday against the Colts.

Sits out another practice Wednesday Alt (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact Alt continues to be hampered by an ankle injury he suffered in Week 4 against the Giants.

Won't play in Week 6 Alt (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.

Impact The 2024 first-round pick from Notre Dame sustained a high-ankle sprain in the Week 4 loss to the Giants and hasn't returned to practice since, so his absence Sunday comes as no surprise. Mekhi Becton is likely to slide over and start at left tackle while Alt remains sidelined in Week 6.

Progressing well Coach Jim Harbaugh said Wednesday that Alt (ankle) is doing "really well," Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Alt did not participate at practice Wednesday, but his coach's words signal optimism he could return to the field soon. He'll have two more chances to mix back into team activities before the Chargers publish their final practice report of the week Friday.
