The Chargers are expected to place Ekeler on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Ekeler is one of several Chargers headed to the list, though it's not yet clear whether the running back has tested positive for the virus. His status for Sunday's game against the Texans has yet to be determined, but Justin Jackson and Joshua Kelley should see increased playing time if Ekeler isn't cleared for Week 16.
