The Chargers will remain without two members of their secondary for Thursday night’s game against the Broncos.

Cornerback Brandon Flowers and safety Jahleel Addae have both been ruled out for the contest. It will be the third straight week that Flowers has missed due to a concussion. Addae has not played since Week Two because of a collarbone injury. The Chargers are also without cornerback Jason Verrett, who is on injured reserve after tearing his ACL.

There are a couple of question marks on San Diego’s starting offensive line. Right tackle Joe Barksdale (foot) and left guard Orlando Franklin (ankle) are both listed as questionable, although each of them was able to take part in practice on a limited basis the last two days. Barksdale’s backup Chris Hairston (groin) is also listed as questionable.

Cornerback Craig Mager (shoulder), wide receiver Dexter McCluster (hamstring) and linebacker Denzel Perryman (shoulder) are also listed as questionable.
