Inman (neck) is listed as probable to play in Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Inman was a full participant throughout practice this week, which makes him a near certainty to return after missing Sunday's loss in Kansas City. Additionally, with Stevie Johnson (groin) doubtful, Inman could benefit from added targets this weekend.

Inman (neck) was a full practice participant Thursday for the second straight day.
EDGE Analysis
It appears Inman's absence will only last one week, whereas Stevie Johnson (neck) still hasn't returned to practice and thus seems likely to miss another game. Should the assessment hold up, Inman would presumably join Malcom Floyd in two-wide sets, setting him up for an every-down role.

Inman (neck) practiced fully Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Meanwhile fellow wideour Stevie Johnson did not practice, while Javontee Herndon was limited, which could set the stage for Inman to return to action this week and reclaim a role opposite Malcom Floyd in the Chargers' wideout corps Sunday against the Dolphins.

Inman (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
The same applies to Stevie Johnson, with Malcom Floyd thus poised to head the Chargers' Week 14 wideout corps, with Javontee Herndon, Vincent Brown and Tyrell Williams also in the mix to jostle for targets in the team's passing offense.

Inman (neck) did not practice Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Nor did Stevie Johnson and if the duo can't play Sunday against the Chiefs, the Chargers' Week 14 wideout corps would be comprised of Malcom Floyd, Javontee Herndon, Vincent Brown and Tyrell Williams.

Inman (neck) did not practice Wednesday, Michael Gehlken of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
The same applies to fellow wideout Stevie Johnson, and with the two both banged up at this stage of the week, the Chargers have brought back wideout Vincent Brown.

Head coach Mike McCoy said Monday that Inman suffered a neck strain during Sunday's loss to the Broncos, Michael Gehlken of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
In one of the scariest scenes of Week 13 to date, Inman was carted off the field following a helmet-to-helmet hit, though the Chargers have slowly but surely released encouraging reports. After the play, the wideout showed movement in his arms and legs, and Inman's diagnosis is certainly on the positive end of the spectrum. In any case, he's day-to-day, with his activity level in practice this week to determine whether he'll suit up this Sunday at Kansas City.

Inman's (neck) initial testing following Sunday's injury produced encouraging results, The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Inman was stretchered off the field in a scary scene following a helmet-to-helmet hit he received during Sunday's game. Thankfully, post-game testing on his neck produced some positive results, even though it's still unclear what Inman's status going forward is. In wake of his injury, the Chargers were left with only Malcom Floyd, Stevie Johnson and Javontee Herndon as their active receivers Sunday.

Inman is undergoing an evaluation for a neck injury following his departure from Sunday's game versus the Broncos.
EDGE Analysis
After taking a helmet-to-helmet hit at the conclusion of a 15-yard reception in the first quarter, Inman was eventually placed on a backboard and carted off the field. He has a history with concussions due to a bout with the head injury in August, but the Chargers' medical staff is instead looking into a neck concern. Until the severity of the ailment is clear, his prognosis will remain murky.
