Brandon Mebane is likely to play for

COSTA MESA Chargers T-Shirts , Calif. (AP) — the Los Angeles Chargers this week following the death of his 7-week old daughter.Mebane had missed five of the past seven games, including last week’s wild-card game at Baltimore, to be with his family.“She wasn’t getting better so we had to make a decision,” Mebane said before Wednesday’s practice. “She kept having bleeds from the stomach, and then when they tried to feed her https://www.chargersfanstore.com/hats , it wasn’t good for her liver.”Makenna Mebane died on Jan. 3. She was born on Nov. 12 with a defective heart condition. The Chargers defensive lineman was in Omaha, Nebraska, with his wife, Amena, and other two children Chargers Hoodie , 4-year-old Mahailey and 2-year-old Makai, for most of the past two months while Makenna received treatment for a stomach infection.Makenna, who was born one month premature, had Trisomy 13, which is otherwise known as Patau syndrome. It is a rare genetic condition — babies are born with an extra chromosome — that causes delays in development as well as affecting many organs.Mebane said that the rest of the family is also back in Los Angeles. He had full participation in practice as the Chargers prepare for Sunday’s divisional-round game at New England.Coach Anthony Lynn said that he expects Mebane to play “unless something happens.” Mebane has started 12 games this season with 53 tackles Doug Flutie Color Rush Jersey , three tackles for loss and one sack.While Mebane did say it was nice to be back with teammates, he was there with a heavy heart.“No matter where I am, I’m still thinking about her,” Mebane said. “We’re all doing pretty good. Just trying to take it one day at a time.”Chargers defensive tackle Damion Square said it was good to have him back despite the tough circumstances.“I don’t understand how tough it is. The fact he is back says a lot about him. Whatever he had to do, my hats off to him Trevor Williams Color Rush Jersey ,” Square said. Like many NFL games, Thursday’s included questionable calls made and not made. One specific call that wasn’t made robbed the Chiefs of a chance to finish the game with an unforgettable moment.After the Chargers converted a two-point conversion to take the lead with four seconds left, Chargers players stormed the field. In the middle of the scrum, quarterback Philip Rivers can be seen waving at his teammates to get off the field before a flag is thrown.But enough already had happened for a flag to be thrown. No flag, however Dan Fouts Color Rush Jersey , was thrown.“There is some leniency when a few players from the bench gather to celebrate in the end zone after a score but the massive number of players that entered the field after this play should not have been ignored,” former NFL referee and rules analyst Terry McAulay told PFT via text message regarding the failure of the officials to impose a 15-yard penalty on the Chargers.So what would have happened if the rules had been applied as written? The Chargers would have kicked from their own 20, creating an opportunity to down the ball in a spot that would have allowed quarterback Patrick Mahomes to launch a missile to the end zone or spark a Dolphins-type cavalcade of laterals aimed at trying to steal a win.The chances of it working would have been very, very slim. But the Chiefs should have had a chance to do what Miami did only five days ago.
