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

EDGE Analysis

Kendricks logged limited practices to start the week before practicing in full Friday. Barring any setbacks, he is on track to return from a two-game absence and start at inside linebacker alongside Kenneth Murray.

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.

Kendricks (hamstring) will not play in Sunday's game in Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

No surprise here, as Kendricks was a non-participant at practice all week. The absence will mark his second straight due to a hamstring injury. In his absence, Nick Niemann will again be a candidate to see increased snaps at linebacker.

Kendricks (hamstring) missed the Chargers' practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Kendricks could be in danger of missing a second straight game as he has now not practiced since before the team's Week 1 matchup. If the 2015 second-round pick is unable to play against the Vikings, Nick Niemann will likely play in his place.

Kendricks (hamstring/personal) will not play in Sunday's game against the Titans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

No surprise here, as Kendricks was deemed doubtful for the contest. As a result of his absence, Tanner Muse and Nick Niemann could see some extra playing time. His next chance to suit up will come in Week 3 versus the Vikings.

Kendricks (hamstring/personal) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Titans.

EDGE Analysis

Kendricks was unable to practice at all during the week. In addition to his hamstring injury, the linebacker is dealing with an unspecified personal matter, so his chances of taking the field in Week 2 are slim. Tanner Muse and Nick Niemann could see more playing time if Kendricks is inactive.

Kendricks (hamstring) did not participate at practice Thursday ahead of Sunday's game at the Titans.

EDGE Analysis

After he recorded seven tackles in Week 1, it's beginning to look probable that Kendricks will have to sit out with a hamstring issue in Week 2. In the event that he misses time, 2020 third-rounder Tanner Muse would be a candidate to potentially start in his place.

Kendricks tallied seven tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 36-34 loss to the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

The middle linebacker was one of just four Chargers to play all 67 defensive snaps. The long-time Vikings linebacker will be a key defensive piece moving forward, given his acumen as a coverage linebacker while simultaneously making a difference against the run game. Kendricks could see plenty of tackle opportunities against the run-heavy Titans in Week 2.

Kendricks is in line to sign with the Chargers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

After spending the first eight seasons of his career in Minnesota, it took little time for Kendricks to find a landing spot with the Chargers. The veteran's signing shouldn't come as much of a surprise, as fellow inside linebackers Drue Tranquill, Kyle Van Noy and Troy Reeder are all unrestricted free agents this offseason. Last season, the 31-year-old Kendricks proved he could still contribute, playing a career-high 1,051 defensive snaps on his way to 137 tackles (87 solo), one sack, a fumble recovery and six passes defended. He'll look to build upon his stellar performance and provide a boost to an already impressive defensive unit.

The Vikings released Kendricks on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Kendricks has been a pillar of Minnesota's defense since the team selected him in the second round of the 2015 NFL Draft, but the productive linebacker will now have to look for a fresh start. The 31-year-old hasn't missed a regular-season game since 2017, has seven consecutive seasons with over 100 tackles and played a career-high 1,051 defensive snaps last year, so there are plenty of reasons for teams around the league to be confident in his ability to continue contributing. Kendricks should have no shortage of suitors in free agency.
