Norval: Practice behind Mathews not starting
Ryan Mathews - RB - San Diego Chargers
Nov. 19, 2012 - 3:30 PM ET
Speaking at Monday's presser, Chargers coach Norv Turner said Ryan Mathews (neck) didn't start Sunday's loss because of his missed Wednesday and Thursday practices.
Mathews was nowhere to be found on the Chargers' first two possessions before reeling in a nine-yard reception to christen their third series. Why two missed practices makes you unfit for the first and second drives but not the third is anyone's guess, but so is life under Norval. Mathews escaped yesterday's latest loss setback free, and should be fine for Week 12.
