Good news for Shaun Phillips (1 Viewer)

LB Shaun Phillips' calf injury is reportedly not as severe as initially thought.

Rather than missing 4-6 weeks, the Chargers are now hoping Phillips can return in 2-3 weeks. "It does not appear to be as bad as we thought it might be," coach Marty Schottenheimer said. Between Phillips' sped-up recovery and LB Shawne Merriman playing during his suspension appeal, the Chargers should avoid being without both for more than one game.
