Starting cornerback Brandon Flowers is a late addition to the Chargers Injury Report. On Saturday night the team announced Flowers has a knee issue and is listed as Probable, meaning he has a 75% chance of playing in Sunday in Minnesota.
Flowers missed practice time with the knee ailment before the Cincinnati game a week ago and did not have the same success against Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green that he had in the season opener against Calvin Johnson and the Lions.
Fellow starting defensive back Jason Verrett is also nursing a foot injury. He's questionable for the game against the Vikings so the Chargers might be missing their top two corners. Patrick Robinson, Steve Williams and rookie Craig Mager would likely get the bulk of the snaps in their absence. Safety Jimmy Wilson also played on the edge for the Dolphins and could rotate over in a pinch.
