Colson is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup with the Browns due to an ankle injury. It is unclear how serious the ankle injury is for Colson. In his absence, Troy Dye is the likely candidate to backup Denzel Perryman at inside linebacker.

Colson (hamstring) was a full practice participant Thursday. A hamstring issue sidelined Colson both Week 3 and Week 4 ahead of the Chargers' Week 5 bye. The rookie linebacker logged a limited practice session Wednesday, but his step up to a full session Thursday suggests that he's in line to return to action Sunday versus Denver. Troy Dye could be limited to a special-teams role upon Colson's return.

Colson (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Colson missed the Chargers' last two games due to a hamstring injury he sustained in Week 2 against the Panthers. Los Angeles is coming off a bye, but it appears the rookie third-round pick is continuing to work through the hamstring issue. Colson's practice participation over the next two days will provide a better idea of his status heading into Sunday's game against the Broncos.

The Chargers selected Colson in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 69th overall. The Michigan linebacker reunites with his college coach, Jim Harbaugh, at the NFL level. There were strong arguments for Colson as the best off-ball linebacker in this class thanks to his strong tackling ability and sideline-to-sideline speed. Colson accrued 196 tackles over his final two seasons in Ann Arbor and checks in as one of the bigger middle linebackers in this draft at 6-foot-2 and 238 pounds. He is tenacious and was tasked with making the on-field adjustments for an elite Michigan defense. Look for Colson to make an immediate impact in the middle of the Chargers defense.
