Kendricks had five tackles (three solo), including a sack, in Sunday's 24-7 loss to the Broncos.

Kendricks had his lowest tackling outing since Week 9 against the Jets, though he was able to get his second sack of the year midway through the second quarter that led to a Denver punt the next play. He's now up to 81 total tackles on the season, which puts him third on the Chargers behind Kenneth Murray (100) and Derwin James (93).

Kendricks recorded 10 tackles (six solo), including a sack, in Sunday's 6-0 win at New England.
EDGE Analysis
Kendricks was the Chargers' leading tackler in a shutout victory, and he also logged his first sack of the season in Week 13. He's had seven-plus tackles in all of his last three games and is on pace for his eighth consecutive year with 100-plus tackles. He's a strong IDP option for Week 14 when the Chargers host the Broncos.

Kendricks (ribs) has been cleared to play in Monday's contest against the Jets, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kendricks practiced in full Saturday after back-to-back limited sessions the two days prior. Thus, he had seemingly been trending in this direction. Barring any setbacks, he should see his usual workload at inside linebacker opposite Kenneth Murray.

Kendricks (ribs) was listed as a limited participant on the Chargers' injury report Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Kendricks has been limited in back-to-back practices following Sunday's 30-13 win against the Bears, so it looks like he picked up a new rib injury during this contest. The 31-year-old also logged double-digit tackles for the first time this season during the Week 8 win, and he's totaled 40 stops and two passes defended across five games. Kendricks will have one more practice Saturday to improve his status before Monday's game against the Jets.

Kendricks had 10 tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 30-13 win over the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
It was the first time Kendricks has reached double-digit tackles in a game since Week 16 of the 2022 season. He seems to have recovered from a hamstring injury that forced him out of Week 3 and has played at least 50 defensive snaps in each of the last three games. Kendricks is up to 40 tackles for the year, second on the team behind Kenneth Murray (52).

Kendricks (hamstring) will be available for Sunday's matchup with the Raiders.

Kendricks (hamstring) was a limited participant at the Chargers' practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Kendricks missed the team's 28-24 win over the Vikings in Week 3 after he failed to participate at practice all week prior to the contest, so his return to the field Wednesday is a step in the right direction. The linebacker will look to increase his workload the next two days ahead of the Chargers' divisional contest with Las Vegas on Sunday.
