Castillo breaks leg against Vikings

NFL.com StaffPublished: September 11th, 2011 | Tags: Mike Tolbert, Luis Castillo, San Diego Chargers, Week 1 injuries 2011

UPDATE: During his postgame session with reporters, Tolbert said he “got rolled up on,” but he didn’t exactly appear concerned. “It’s a part of football put some dirt on it and move on.”

The Chargers lost DE Luis Castillo during Sunday’s victory over the Vikings. Castillo was carted off the sideline and taken to the locker room during the fourth quarter. The San Diego Union reported Sunday night that Castillo suffered a fractured tibia in his left leg. It is unclear if he will be able to return this season.

Meanwhile, running back Mike Tolbert had a monster game with three touchdowns , but his afternoon ended on a negative note.

Tolbert limped off the field late during the fourth quarter, favoring his right leg. He immediately went down to the ground once he reached the sideline, and was later spotted on the trainer’s table, where team trainers were administering tests typically associated with knee injuries. The Chargers made no announcement on his status.
