The Los Angeles Chargers are hurting on offense heading into Thursday night's matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders.

Los Angeles is concerned wideout Keenan Allen, who's nursing a hamstring injury, will be unable to suit up in the Week 15 tilt, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. If Allen is active, he's likely to receive limited snaps.

Meanwhile, wide receiver Mike Williams isn't expected to play due to a back injury, sources told Schefter.

Both Williams and Allen have been limited in practice leading up to Thursday's contest and were listed as questionable on Wednesday.

Jalen Guyton, Joe Reed, and Tyron Johnson would presumably play increased snaps if the Chargers' top two pass-catchers are inactive, and tight end Hunter Henry is likely to experience a bump in targets.

Running back Austin Ekeler, who's also listed as questionable with a quad injury, is expected to play in the AFC West matchup.
