Chargers' Perryman placed on IR, could return midseason
by from on (#3165Y)
Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Denzel Perryman was placed on injured reserve Monday due to an ankle injury suffered in the preseason opener, the team announced.
Perryman will have to miss the first eight weeks but is a logical candidate to be one of the two players the Chargers can activate from IR during the season, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
The 24-year-old has impressed over his first two seasons in the league, racking up 145 total tackles, four sacks, and one interception in 26 appearances.
In a corresponding move, the Chargers re-signed quarterback Kellen Clemens.
