The Chargers announced a series of roster changes ahead of Sunday’s game against the Broncos, including moving quarterback Trey Lance to injured reserve.
Lance had already been ruled out for this week with a groin injury and will miss at least four games following Saturday’s move. DJ Uiagalelei will replace Justin Herbert.
The Chargers also placed offensive lineman Trevor Penning on injured reserve. They placed left tackle Rashawn Slate on the roster Friday, which left them with three spots open on the active roster.
Fullback Scott Matlock and offensive lineman Branson Taylor will man two after being activated from injured reserve. Wide receiver Theo Wease was signed off the practice squad to fill the remaining slot.
The Chargers elevated offensive lineman Daniel Brunskill and cornerback Isas Waxter from the practice squad to round out the day’s moves. Both players will return after the game against Denver.
