San Diego Chargers have two injured cornerbacks in the aftermath of Thursday’s 35-21 loss to the Denver Broncos.

Jahleel Addae has a concussion while rookie Jason Verrett has a shoulder injury.

Addae hit the turf after his first tackle of the game and appeared to go into convulsions after another hit in the third quarter.

Addae, a second-year player, said after the game that he passed the NFL’s concussion protocol. However, the team said late Friday that he was diagnosed with a concussion.

According to NFL.com, Verrett is scheduled to see a specialist next week to get a diagnosis on the shoulder.

It is not clear when the two players will return to action. The Chargers play the Miami Dolphins on Nov. 2 before heading into their bye week.
