Linebacker Polk goes on IR
By: North County Times | ∞
SAN DIEGO -- The Chargers placed linebacker Carlos Polk on injured reserve Tuesday, two days after Polk injured his left shoulder in the loss to Jacksonville.
The Chargers promoted linebacker Jyles Tucker from the practice squad to replace Polk. Tucker is a rookie from Wake Forest.
Polk, a seven-year veteran, is one of the Chargers' top special teams' performers. He leads the team with 12 special teams' tackles.

He delivered the punishing blow to Drew-Jones, who flattened Merriman, and got injured in the process. Talk about going all out for your team. KUDOS to Polk and hopefully the others realize they are WEAK and inept compared to his level of effort but at least they got their paychecks which i what they are all apparently the most concerned about.
