Fantasy Impact:
This is a significant blow for the Chargers offense line, as Tyrod Taylor loses his starting center for the year. Dan Feeney will continue to man the center position in Pouncey's absence. The Chargers did a good job rushing the ball in Week 1, amassing 155 yards on 39 carries, and did a decent job protecting Taylor only letting up two sacks. The Chargers face the Chiefs on Sunday, where they'll likely be forced to throw more often to keep up with Kansas City's explosive offense.
