Verrett is coming back from a torn ACL and missed the team’s Week 2 game because of his knee.
Verrett, a first-round pick in 2014, is a strong cover corner, so losing him is a tough break for the Chargers’ defense.
Trevor Williams and Casey Hayward will serve as the team’s corners with Verrett out.
