The Chargers travel cross country for Sunday’s 1PM ET game to face a Cleveland team still missing All-Pro DE Myles Garrett (shoulder) and possibly without fellow DL starters Jadeveon Clowney (ankle) and Taven Bryan (hamstring). Already short MLB Anthony Walker (torn quad, I.R.), the Browns were gutted for a combined 30/199/2 (6.63 YPC) rushing line by Atlanta last Sunday. Coming off his year-best game, Austin Ekeler banked Weeks 1-4 touch counts of 18, 23, 12, and 19 and is a shoo-in top-five RB1 play here. … As expected, Justin Herbert’s (ribs) comfort level looked much improved in Week 4’s victory over Houston en route to season-bests in completion rate (69%) and yards per attempt (8.7). Rookie LT Jamaree Salyer was near impeccable in place of Rashawn Slater (torn biceps, I.R.) and won’t have to face Garrett in Sunday’s game. Herbert can once again be considered a confidently elite QB1 starter.
