Report: Joe Alt believed to have another high-ankle sprain

The Los Angeles Chargers may face another extended absence of left tackle Joe Alt, who left Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans with a suspected high-ankle sprain. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported the injury affects Alt's right ankle, the same one previously injured, causing him to miss three games earlier this season. An MRI will confirm the diagnosis, and surgery may be necessary. The Chargers have a 1-2 record in games played without Alt this season, highlighting the importance of his presence as the team strives to maintain its position in the AFC playoff race.
