Chargers K Badgley (groin) questionable for Sunday

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Michael Badgley sustained a groin injury during the practice Friday and is questionable for the team's Sunday opener against the Indianapolis Colts. Chargers coach Anthony Lynn said that the team will give Badgley a few days to rest before making the final decision on his availability for the game.

Lynn said that punter Ty Long would handle kicking and punting duties if Badgley is unable to play. Long were a punter and kicker for the Canadian Football League's British Columbia Lions for two seasons. Backup quarterback Tyrod Taylor would stand in for Long as the holder in the event of Badgley's absence. Taylor has only held in practice, not a game.

An undrafted free agent from Miami (Fla.) in 2018, Badgley failed to make the Colts' roster last summer. He signed with the Chargers in October, and he went 15 of 16 on field-goal attempts. He also set a franchise record by kicking a 59-yard field goal in the Chargers' Week 14 win over Cincinnati.
