Casey Pearce, of Chargers.com, reports San Diego Chargers LB Akbar Gbaja-Biamila does not anticipate a return to a down lineman position. "I really like Wade Phillips' system," Gbaja-Biamila said. "I'll essentially be a defensive end but I'll be standing up instead of starting from a three-point stance. I will be asked to drop into coverage, but I'm comfortable with that. I just want a chance to play again." Gbaja-Biamila was switched from defensive end to linebacker when the team switched to a 3-4 defensive set.

With Oakland Raiders LB Travian Smith (knee) unlikely to play in Week 6 at the Denver Broncos, it means the Raiders will likely play more in a 4-3 defensive formation than the 3-4. LB Napoleon Harris would see time at outside linebacker, along with LB DeLawrence Grant, with LB Danny Clark in the middle. In 3-4 alignments, Harris and Clark would play inside, with Grant and LB Akbar Gbaja-Biamila on the outside.
