[Chargers] Chargers LB Shawne Merriman Opts Against Knee Surgery

San Diego Chargers linebacker Shawne Merriman informed the team on Wednesday that he has decided to forgo surgery on his knee and will play in the 2008 season. Merriman revealed on Saturday he has two torn ligaments in his left knee and has been told by doctors that he could suffer a possible career-ending injury if he attempts to play without having surgery. The three-time Pro Bowl selection has been seeking opinions from doctors outside the organization and had been trying to decide whether to have surgery or continue playing.
