Chris Simms and Mike Florio dive into whether the Chargers or Broncos will come out on top in an even Week 12 matchup.

The Chargers activated defensive lineman Christian Covington from the COVID-19 reserve list Friday. He went on the list Nov. 17.

Covington has played nine games with two starts and made 28 tackles and a sack.

Coach Brandon Staley said, via Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times, that Jerry Tillery and Covington will start Sunday. Covington will replace Linval Joseph, who is on the COVID-19 reserve list and has a shoulder injury. Breiden Fehoko and Joe Gaziano will be part of the rotation.

The Chargers also placed defensive back Mark Webb on injured reserve.

Staley said Webb underwent a procedure on his knee but will return this season.
