KeAndre Lambert-Smith will be unavailable for a minimum of four games after the Chargers placed him on injured reserve. The move involves the second-year player following a significant hamstring injury sustained during the Chargers' Week 1 loss to the Cardinals.

Lambert-Smith's earliest possible return is Week 6, when the Chargers are scheduled to meet the Chiefs on Oct. 18. The schedule provides a potential return point, though he could require more time to recover from the injury.

The injured-reserve designation removes Lambert-Smith from the Chargers' active roster for at least the next four games. The team filled the resulting roster spot by adding Gary Jennings to its 53-player roster. The Jennings addition was made as the corresponding transaction to Lambert-Smith's placement on injured reserve.
