GAME LOG

On bench Sunday McNair (lower body) is on the bench for Sunday's clash against Portland Timbers.
Impact McNair may see action again following a short injury period, but he can't be trusted for a lot of minutes as a substitute. The defender, whose fantasy production usually comes from accurate passes and clearances, will challenge Manu Duah and Christopher McVey for playing time for the rest of the knockout rounds.
OCTOBER 26 • ROTOWIRE
Uncertain with lower body injury McNair (lower body) is in doubt for Saturday's trip to Portland, per the MLS injury report.
Impact McNair has played just a single minute in the last two matches, with his focus squarely on getting fit for the playoffs. It appears he could be back on the bench Saturday, but it's unlikely that he's risked in the starting XI. McNair has been a big part of the starting XI when fit and would be a big part of the playoff run.
OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE
Starts versus Minnesota McNair (undisclosed) is part of San Diego's starting lineup for Saturday's game against Minnesota United.
Impact McNair was not dealing with a significant injury after being forced off in his last match against Los Angeles FC. He'll likely stay in the middle of the back line alongside Manu Duah while Ian Pilcher offers a substitute option. The experienced defender has recorded just 63 minutes of league play since July 6, and it's unclear if he'll complete the match this time. Still, he's usually able to make various clearances per contest.
SEPTEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE
Forced off against LAFC McNair subbed off due to an undisclosed injury in the second half of Sunday's clash with Los Angeles FC.
Impact McNair was active in defensive duties as part of a four-man back line before his exit. He had just returned from a lower body injury, taking a starting spot alongside Manu Duah. If the new problem is serious, Ian Pilcher could see increased playing time until McNair is fully fit.
AUGUST 31 • ROTOWIRE
On bench against San Jose McNair (lower body) is on the bench for Sunday's game against San Jose Earthquakes.
Impact McNair will be in contention with Manu Duah for a center-back spot following his recovery from a minor issue. However, the experienced defender might only feature as a substitute for now. He was a consistent starter during the first three months of the season, when he made 59 clearances and 14 tackles over 15 matches played.

Ruled out against SKC McNair (lower body) isn't an option for Saturday's clash with Kasnas City, per the MLS injury report.
Impact McNair isn't available for Saturday's match due to a lower body injury that he picked up in recent weeks. This season has been marred by injuries for McNair, who is the top choice center-back when fit, but has struggled to stay fit. Manu Duah could be in for more minutes Saturday with McNair out.

On bench against Nashville McNair (lower body) is on the bench for Friday's clash with Nashville.
Impact McNair could play again following a two-game absence, but he's unlikely to see a lot of minutes yet, with Manu Duah and Ian Pilcher chosen in central defense. McNair has started in 18 MLS matches this year, tallying 69 clearances, 14 tackles, six interceptions and seven clean sheets over that span. He should eventually regain a regular spot if he avoids any setback for the rest of the season.
JULY 25 • ROTOWIRE
Should return Friday McNair (Lower Body) should return for Friday's clash with Nashville, as he was not listed on the MLS injury report.
Impact McNair missed the last two MLS games due to a lower-body injury but should return Friday against Nashville and go straight into the starting XI in central defense, with Christopher McVey ruled out for the game. This is good news for San Diego since McNair has been an undisputed starter in the backline this season, and the club will need him fit for the final stretch of the season.

Late call for Wednesday McNair is questionable for Wednesday's match against Toronto due to a lower-body injury, according to the MLS injury report.
Impact McNair is going to be tested ahead of Wednesday's match, as he is a late call after suffering a lower-body injury. He is a regular starter in the middle of the defense for the club, so they will hope this is only a minor issue and he can reclaim that spot. That said, if fit, he should see the start, with Ian Pilcher a possible replacement if he is left out.
JULY 16 • ROTOWIRE
Back in starting XI Saturday McNair (lower body) is in the starting lineup for the weekend matchup versus Houston Dynamo.
Impact McNair will make his 17th start of the season, taking the spot back from Ian Pilcher after three games on the sidelines. The Northern Irishman will aim to improve on his pre-injury averages of 4.1 clearances, 0.9 tackles and 0.4 interceptions per contest to help his side end its run of three matches without a clean sheet.

Out with lower body injury McNair (lower body) is out for Saturday's trip to Minnesota, per the MLS injury report.
Impact McNair has been struggling with a lower body issue that knocked him out of training, and he's now out for at least one match. With so many other injuries to the backline for San Diego, Franco Negri could be forced into the starting XI for this match.
JUNE 13 • ROTOWIRE
Returns from Northern Ireland McNair (international duty) is back with the team and is an option moving forward, the club posted.
Impact McNair is back from his time with Northern Ireland after playing in both games against Switzerland and Sweden. He will likely return to the starting XI on Saturday against LAFC after starting every game this season.
MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE
Serving with Northern Ireland McNair has been called up by the Northern Ireland national team and is not an option for Sunday's match against Austin.
Impact McNair has made the squad for Northern Ireland, taking him away from his club team for the time being. He has been a regular starter thus far, so this will force a change, with Ian Pilcher as a possible replacement. His next chance to return will be against LAFC on March 29.
MARCH 18 • ROTOWIRE
Three shots Saturday McNair registered three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Columbus Crew.
Impact McNair recorded a season-high three shots Saturday, recording one on target. He also created one chance on the attack. On the defensive end he won five duels, intercepted one pass and won one tackles in his full 90 minutes of action.
MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE
In starting lineup Saturday McNair (undisclosed) is in the starting XI in Saturday's matchup versus Columbus Crew.
Impact McNair was dealing with some discomfort, though it wasn't enough to keep him out of action. The center-back has been active in the first three games of the campaign, averaging 4.0 clearances per match and earning two clean sheets over that period. He's expected to remain a regular member of the lineup over Ian Pilcher.
MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE
Limps off Saturday McNair was forced off in the second half of Saturday's match against RSL due to injury.
Impact McNair left the match in the 55th minute succumbing to injury and being replaced by Ian Pilcher. The extent of the defender's injury should be determined ahead of next week's clash with Columbus.
