  Chargers | Quiet game for Ladd McConkey in Week 15    Sun Dec 14, 05:12 PM

Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey was targeted three times and caught two of them for 20 yards in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Footballguys view: Not only has McConkey not been a fantasy asset since Week 10 as the Chargers offense has slogged through the injury minefield, you would have been better off putting him on the bench in three of the last four weeks. The matchup against Dallas next week is tempting, but strong playoff fantasy rosters may have trouble finding a lineup spot for McConkey when he has been ice cold over the last month.

  Chargers | Omarion Hampton runs for 61 yards    Sun Dec 14, 04:38 PM

Los Angeles Chargers RB Omarion Hampton registered 15 carries for 61 yards in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs, while providing a 4-yard reception on his lone target.

Footballguys view: The Chargers stuck with a true committee backfield in Hampton's second week back. He was the more effective runner, but that is no solace to fantasy teams that played Hampton over other RB2/Flex options that hit today. He'll be in play as a flex against the Cowboys next week.

  Chargers | Justin Herbert throws for 210 yards, TD    Sun Dec 14, 04:06 PM

Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert completed 19-of-29 passes for 210 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs, while running twice for no yards.

Footballguys view: Herbert wasn't a great fantasy play, but that was expected. He rallied to make two big throws late in the first half to tighten what was a lopsided game, and he hung in against a relentless Chiefs defense in a physical battle. Herbert will be a consideration a streaming QB1 next week at Dallas with the Chargers making a push to the playoffs.

  Chargers | Tony Jefferson ejected in fourth quarter    Sun Dec 14, 03:43 PM

Los Angeles Chargers FS Tony Jefferson was ejected in the fourth quarter of the Week 15 game against the Kansas City Chiefs after a big hit touched off an on-field fracas. He was flagged for unnecessary roughness, and after being ejected, he also made a finger gesture to the booing crowd, which will likely draw league discipline.

  Chargers | Keenan Allen should be available    Fri Dec 12, 03:29 PM

Los Angeles Chargers WR Keenan Allen (non-injury) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 12, and is not on the injury report for Week 15.

Footballguys view: 33-year-old Keenan Allen gets frequent rest days, but he's expected to play this week. We've got him ranked as a borderline WR4, as his occasional productive games have been difficult to predict.

  Chargers | Ladd McConkey expected to play    Fri Dec 12, 03:21 PM

Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (foot) was limited during practice Friday, Dec. 12, but is not on the injury report for Week 15.

Footballguys view: We've got McConkey ranked as a WR3 this week. His talent is undeniable, but Los Angeles' passing production has been sporadic and spread thin. He's posted a couple of 100-yard games and five touchdowns this year, but the lows have been low, keeping him in the high-risk WR3 tier.

  Chargers | Justin Herbert on track to play    Fri Dec 12, 03:16 PM

Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert (hand) was limited during practice Friday, Dec. 12, but is not on the injury report for Week 15.

Footballguys view: Herbert played through a hand injury last week, and there's no reason to expect he won't do the same in Week 15. Unfortunately, his production has disappeared over the past couple of months as his offensive line has been ravaged by injuries. He's in the streaming conversation this week, but better options may be available on your waiver wire.

  Chargers | Questionable tag for Quentin Johnston    Fri Dec 12, 03:15 PM

Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (groin) was limited during practice Friday, Dec. 12, and is listed as questionable for Week 15.

Footballguys view: Johnston's hot start feels like a distant memory, as he's averaged WR68 production per game since Week 5 and has multiple scoreless outings. With the Chargers' offense sputtering lately, Johnston is extremely volatile and lands as a borderline WR4 against the Chiefs this week.

  Chargers | Omarion Hampton scores in his return    Tue Dec 9, 02:17 AM

Los Angeles Chargers RB Omarion Hampton (ankle) had 13 carries for 56 yards against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 14. Hampton also had two receptions, 11 yards, and a touchdown.

Footballguys view: With Hampton back for the first time since Week 5, he and Kimani Vidal shared the workload, and both delivered. On the opening drive, they combined for 78 yards, capped off by a 4-yard receiving touchdown by Hampton. Their workload was similar -- Hampton with 13 carries and Vidal with 14 -- and both finished in RB2 territory. Low-end RB2 to flex outcomes seem like reasonable starting points for expectations here, but as ESPN.com's Kris Rhim suggested, the coming weeks will determine whether this is a timeshare or if Hampton will return to a featured role.

  Chargers | Justin Herbert impresses more with toughness than fantasy output vs. Eagles    Tue Dec 9, 01:48 AM

One week after undergoing surgery for a fracture in his left hand, Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert rushed for the third-most yards in his career, stiff-arming the Eagles in a 22-19 overtime win Monday night that prompted L.A. coach Jim Harbaugh to call him a "superhero."

Footballguys view: Herbert's stats weren't that impressive: 139 passing yards, the sixth-fewest of his six-year NFL career, on a career-worst 46 percent completion rate. None of it mattered. What did matter was his playmaking, especially on the ground. He ran for a team-high 66 yards on 10 carries and produced three first downs on scrambles, giving him 18 for the season. That's fourth most in the NFL after Patrick Mahomes (24), Baker Mayfield (20), and Drake Maye (20). Herbert's 18 first downs on scrambles were also his most in any season. Herbert finished the week as QB17 with 14.2 fantasy points.
