Pearsall sprained his knee in the Week 4 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars and has missed the last two games as a result.

A negative game script forced the Chargers to abandon the run early, giving Vidal little room to operate. With a short week ahead against the Minnesota Vikings, the Bolts may need to rely more on the ground game to balance their offense. The Vikings are much more vulnerable against ... [More...]
