Liuget tallied three combined tackles during the Chargers Week 1 loss to the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
It was good to see Liuget flying around the field during the Chargers Week 1 performance. The 26-year-old appears to be back to full health after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery last December.

Liuget recorded three solo tackles in the loss to the Chiefs Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Liuget did break free for a sack early in the first quarter resulting in a fumble recovery for the Chargers, but the play was negated after offsetting penalties by both teams. That was about the only fireworks for Liuget, who was stifled throughout much of the contest.

Liuget is feeling "much better" after he underwent arthroscopic knee surgery in December, Micahel Gehlken of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Liuget had tallied 34 tackles (28 solo) and three sacks before his Week 13 injury against the Broncos. The 26-year-old, who signed a five-year extension prior to last year's training camp, reportedly weighed between 313-315 pounds throughout the 2015 season, but is expecting to cut his weight down to 295 by the season opener. With the Chargers selecting Joey Bosa with the third overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, Liuget and Bosa could form an impressive duo on the defensive line capable of wreaking havoc on opposing offenses should both players stay healthy.

Liuget (foot) is active Sunday against the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
Liuget (foot) will be ready to go after putting in three limited practices this week. Before leaving the Week 8 game with his injury, he had posted two sacks in his previous three games. He'll look to pick up where he left off before the injury against the Chiefs.

Liuget (foot) is expected to play Sunday against the Chiefs, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
EDGE Analysis
Liuget's presence along the defensive line is certainly a plus for the Chargers, though with only 28 tackles and two sacks this season, he's a minimal fantasy IDP option.

Liuget (foot) is considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
Liuget was limited throughout practice this week, putting his status up in the air for Sunday's divisional contest. Although he's only posted 28 tackles and two sacks so far, Liuget's presence would surely be welcomed along the Chargers' defensive front, but he's likely to be a game-time decision for Sunday.

Liuget (foot) is inactive for Monday night's game against the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
With 28 tackles and two sacks in eight games to date, Liuget is only an option in deeper IDP leagues, though his absence Monday is a hit to the Chargers' defensive line rotation/run-stopping ability.

Liuget (foot) is questionable to return after being carted off the field Sunday against the Ravens, Michael Gehlken of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Chargers are one of the weaker defenses against the run and will likely struggle further without Liuget in the lineup. He's expected to be replaced at defensive tackler by Ricardo Matthews.
