So I read the LBs depth chart as:

WILL - Adibi, Bentley
MIKE - Ryans, Davis
SAM - Diles, Thompson/Bentley

Verdell and Davis have the most to gain from this setback.

Actually, its being reported that Bentley wont be backing up on WLB, but will infact be STARTING.... this is a quote from an Associated Press article:

Houston shuffled its healthy outside linebackers on Wednesday to deal with Cushing’s absence. Kubiak moved Zac Diles from the weak side to take over Cushing’s spot on the strong side. That left Kevin Bentley, who has been the backup for DeMeco Ryans in the middle, as the starter on the weak side.

There's no mention of Adibi. It looks like either Bentley is impressing quite a bit or the coaches have some questions regarding Adibi and June...

So Its looking more like this for the depth chart at the moment:

WILL - Bentley, Adibi, June
MIKE - Ryans, Davis
SAM - Diles, Thompson
