Chargers’ Najee Harris injures ankle during non-contact play against Broncos

By Canadian Press on September 21, 2025.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris hurt his left ankle on a non-contact play in the second quarter Sunday against the Denver Broncos.

Harris took a step forward from the backfield as the play began and immediately went down with 5:02 remaining. He had to be helped off the field and was questionable to return. He had six carries for 28 yards before getting hurt.

Harris missed training camp after suffering an eye injury in a July 4 fireworks mishap in Northern California. He said his eyesight wasn’t affected and called it a “superficial” injury. He played in the Chargers’ first two wins over Kansas City and Las Vegas.
