The entire Chargers organization is mourning the loss of Daiyan Henley's older brother, Jabari, who passed away Friday night.

The Chargers linebacker was emotional in the postgame locker room but said he wanted to honor his brother by suiting up against the Titans.

"It never crossed my mind to not play in this game," Henley said.

Henley finished with seven total tackles, including a sack plus a pass defensed and two tackles on special teams.

He celebrated his sack by dropping to his knees in prayer.

"I just wanted to talk to my brother one more time," Henley said. "It was just an emotional moment for me to be able to make a play on a day like this just losing him so soon."

Henley said postgame that he found out the tragic news early Saturday morning in Nashville but credited teammates and coaches for helping him get ready to play Sunday afternoon.

"Every single one of my teammates showed up and that's why I was able to go out there and do what I did, because I had a lot of support," Henley said. "I wasn't going to let them down."

He later added: "It's been a lot. But this organization, from top down, has been right there for me."

Henley's teammates made it clear that they wanted to get Sunday's win for Henley and his family.

"I just want to be there for him every step because that kid has been through so much," Derwin James, Jr. said. "He's our green dot, our leader, our captain. Being able to battle, that's tough. For him to go out there, I got so much respect for him."

Troy Dye added: "You got to be there for your brother, especially during these hard times. There's not much I can really speak on, but I love the guy and I'm going to be there for him with anything he needs and just allowing him to process it."

Molden said: "I can't imagine that whole situation. Credit to him for playing. We love him and he's got a lot of brothers in this locker room."
