Carson, CA (Sports Network) - San Diego Chargers veteran quarterback Doug Flutie will miss at least two weeks after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery Thursday.

Flutie, 41, hasn't practiced since Saturday because of soreness in his left knee.

San Diego is now down to just two quarterbacks in camp -- Drew Brees and Cleo Lemon, who was a member of the practice squad last year. San Diego is also without Philip Rivers, the only top-five draft pick who remains unsigned.

Flutie went 2-3 as a starter for the Chargers last season. He has passed for 14,410 yards and 85 touchdowns in 10 NFL seasons since 1986.
