David Njoku, TE (LAC)

Cleared for Week 6

Njoku (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against Arizona.

Njoku was unable to practice Wednesday but returned in a limited fashion Thursday and Friday, which was enough to clear him. The 25-year-old tight end will look to build on last week's excellent performance (149 yards and a touchdown) at home against the league's last remaining undefeated team.
