Colson (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs.
The rookie linebacker from Michigan was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday and practiced in full Friday, giving himself a good chance to play Sunday.

Chargers' Junior Colson: Designated to return from IR
The Chargers designated Colson (ankle) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Colson has been sidelined for the Chargers' last four games due to an ankle injury he suffered in Week 9 against the Browns.

Colson (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.

He'll now be forced to miss the Chargers next four games, with his earliest possible return coming in Week 14's matchup against the Chiefs.

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.

Colson (hamstring) did not practice Friday and has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Colson will sit for a second straight week due to a hamstring injury he sustained in Week 2 against the Panthers. He has been unable to practice since his injury, but with the Chargers on a bye next week, he'll have more time to rehab and heal up ahead of Week 6 against the Broncos on Oct. 13.
