"The trickle of players back onto the practice field continued Monday.

While some notable offensive players remained sidelined, there is hope everyone will be ready to play in the Chargers' next game, still six days away.

Wide receiver Malcom Floyd returned, as did linebacker Brandon Siler. While both were limited in Monday's practice, they reported feeling good after their first time on the field in weeks. Floyd has not played since straining his hamstring Oct. 17 at St. Louis. Siler has been active just once in the past five games due to a foot injury.

"We are making progress," head coach Norv Turner said. "I'd expect a number of the guys who weren't able to go today to practice on Wednesday, and then, hopefully, we will have most of the guys, or everyone that is going to play in the game on Monday Night, would be able to practice on Thursday."

Tight end Antonio Gates (foot), running back Ryan Mathews (ankle) and wide receiver Legedu Naanee (hamstring) remained sidelined."
