SAN DIEGO -- Cornerback Asher Allen, who was limited in practice all week because of a toe injury, is among the seven inactives for today's game.

Also inactive are: CB Brandon Burton, S Mistral Raymond, C Brandon Fusco, OT DeMarcus Love, defensive end D'Aundre Reed and LB Xavier Adibi, who was claimed off waivers last Sunday.

One thing to watch: With G Seth Olsen being released, the team has only seven offensive linemen active for the game. The five starters, C Jon Cooper and T Pat Brown are the only active offensive linemen. Cooper can also play guard.

With Allen and Burton inactive, the Vikings also have only four corners active for the game.

Inactives for the Chargers: WR Patrick Crayton, CB Shareece Wright, RB Jordan Todman, LB Larry English, LB Jonas Mouton, LB Na'il Diggs and WR-KR Vincent Brown.
