Chargers cornerback Verrett out indefinitely with torn labrum in left shoulder

Published February 05, 2015

The San Diego Chargers will lose rookie cornerback Jason Verrett for at least one game and possibly longer with a torn labrum in his left shoulder.

Verrett originally hurt his shoulder in a victory at Oakland on Oct. 12 — which he sealed with a last-minute interception — and aggravated it in a loss at Denver last Thursday night.

He'll miss the game at Miami on Sunday, when the Chargers (5-3) will try to snap a two-game losing streak. The Chargers then have their bye.

Verrett played most of his senior season at TCU with a torn labrum in his right shoulder, which was surgically repaired in March.

The Chargers did regain a cornerback Thursday when Brandon Flowers was cleared to practice after missing the Denver game with a concussion.
