Junior Colson was drafted by the Chargers in Harbaugh's first year as head coach, marking the beginning of a potential trend of bringing Michigan players to Los Angeles.

Junior Colson has emerged as a quality role player for the Chargers, showcasing interesting upside that could benefit the team's future.

Junior Colson, the Chargers' third-round pick from Michigan, has been activated for a potential return after overcoming an ankle injury, adding depth to the linebacking corps at a crucial time as other players deal with injuries. His ability to make an impact could not only ease the workload for veterans but also elevate his standing on the depth chart, positioning him as a key player in the team's future.

Junior Colson returned to practice after spending four weeks on injured reserve due to an ankle injury. As a rookie, he had made an impact with 13 tackles and one pass breakup before his injury, and his return could bolster a defense that has already been challenged by injuries to key players.

Junior Colson is dealing with an ankle injury, which has opened up opportunities for other linebackers on the Chargers' roster. His absence has led to Troy Dye stepping into a larger role, where Dye played 76.5% of the defensive snaps in the recent game and made 14 tackles. Colson's injury is significant, as it impacts the team's linebacker depth and overall defensive strategy.
