The Chargers designated Hurst (hip) for return from injured reserve Monday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports. Hurst missed the minimum four games after being placed on injured reserve Nov. 25, but he's made enough progress in his recovery from the hip injury to resume on-field work. The Chargers aren't likely to hold a full slate of practices this week in advance of Thursday's game in Denver, so the veteran tight end may not be able to get in sufficient reps to prove his health. Whether Hurst is activated from IR for this week's game or at some point before his 21-day practice window closes, his playing time is likely to hinge on the status of top tight end Will Dissly (shoulder), who sat out Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers and is trending toward missing a second straight game Tuesday.

The Chargers placed Hurst (hip) on injured reserve Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Hurst already had been ruled out for Monday night's game against the Ravens, but he's now going to miss at least the next four contests. Will Dissly and Stone Smartt should handle tight end duties for the Chargers while Hurst is sidelined.

Hurst (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's Week 12 contest against Baltimore. Hurst first landed on the Chargers' injury report as a limited participant Friday, and he was unable to practice at all Saturday. Consequently, he'll miss Monday night's matchup against the Ravens. Will Dissly will continue to serve as Los Angeles' top pass-catching tight end, and Tucker Fisk could see more opportunities in Hurst's stead.

Hurst is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Bengals. Hurst didn't carry a designation for the contest, but he'll be unavailable versus Cincinnati. In his absence, Will Dissly, Stone Smartt and Tucker Fisk will handle the Chargers' Week 11 tight end duties.

Hurst was unable to secure his lone target in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Titans. Hurst saw just one target for the second-straight week, as the veteran continues to be clearly behind Will Dissly in the Chargers' tight end pecking order. The 31-year-old played just nine of Los Angeles' 59 offensive snaps, behind both Dissly (32) and Tucker Fisk (23). With such limited usage and production in 2024, Hurst is far from a reliable fantasy option heading into a Week 11 matchup against the Bengals.
