With Joe Alt sidelined by a neck injury and Rashawn Slater on injured reserve, Los Angeles is set to field one of the least experienced offensive lines in the league for Sunday's division game at SoFi Stadium.
Ravens linebacker Trenton Simpson, Jets safety Minkah Fitzpatrick and Broncos guard Ben Powers drew the largest fines, and five players were docked for hip-drop tackles.
Shane Steichen said the starting defensive end will miss time, and Jeremy Fowler reported a three-to-four-week absence for a pass rush that has produced just 1.5 sacks from its edge group.
