The broadcast revealed it was a knee injury for J.K. Dobbins, who was seen wearing a sizeable brace on the sideline. Dobbins would not return to the game and in his postgame presser following the loss, head coach Jim Harbaugh provided no real update.

There was no update as of early Tuesday. For now, owners will just need to hold their breath a bit. The Chargers are already on a short week with the Monday night game and now head into Week 13, which is a Sunday game in the early window at the Falcons. We should hear more about Dobbins injury today, but owners will probably want to prepare to be without him because of the shorter week. Edwards would likely take over the early down work with Vidal possibly seeing passing down snaps, or working as a change of pace back.
