5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers quarterback
Justin Herbert will look to stay hot in a Week 10 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Herbert got off to a slow start this season but has been heating up since Week 7, coming in as the fantasy QB10 since then along with being first in the league in passing yards per game in that span. With the Chargers throwing more often and Herbert clearly feeling healthier, he's worked his way back into fantasy consideration after being clearly unplayable for the first few weeks of the season. In Week 10, he has an almost completely healthy receiving corps and will take on a Titans defense that has shown quite a bit of give, especially in recent weeks. Herbert is a solid QB2 with a nice floor and some decent upside as well.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers running back
Gus Edwards (ankle) was limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Edwards' 21-day practice window to return from Injured Reserve was opened when he returned to the practice field on Wednesday, but he's not necessarily guaranteed to be active on game day this Sunday against the visiting Tennessee Titans. And when the 29-year-old does return to the Chargers' backfield, he's expected to return to the clear backup role behind
J.K. Dobbins. Edwards had taken a clear back seat to Dobbins, his former teammate in Baltimore, in his four games played, averaging a career-low 3.0 yards per carry on 38 rushing attempts after putting up a career-high 13 rushing scores in 2023 with the Ravens. If Edwards gets the green light to return in Week 10 against Tennessee, he won't be a recommended flex play in fantasy.

DJ Chark (groin) wasn't listed on the team's Week 10 injury report on Wednesday, meaning that he was able to put in a full practice. Chark was activated from Injured Reserve last Saturday but did not play in the Week 9 win over the Cleveland Browns. The fact that the 28-year-old is completely off the injury report to begin Week 10 preparation is a good sign for his chances of being active this Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, though. It will be a boost to LA's receiving corps, but the former second-round pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2018 out of LSU should remain on the waiver wire in standard 12-team fantasy leagues. Chark has yet to play in 2024 and will be the team's WR4 behind
Quentin Johnston, rookie
Ladd McConkey and
Joshua Palmer.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said that the team opened the 21-day practice window on Wednesday for running back
Gus Edwards (ankle) to return from Injured Reserve. While Edwards would be eligible to play in Week 10 against the Tennessee Titans if he's activated from IR by Sunday's game, the Chargers now have 21 days to officially return him to their active 53-man roster. If the 29-year-old does enough in practice this week and is activated by Saturday, he'd be returning to game action for the first time since getting hurt back in Week 4. He hadn't really moved the fantasy needle this year in his first season with the Bolts after going for a career-high 13 touchdowns in 2023 with the Ravens. Edwards will likely return to taking a back seat behind
J.K. Dobbins after averaging just 3.0 yards per carry on 38 carries and 113 yards on the ground in his first four games.
UPDATE: Edwards was limited on Wednesday.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBallerSource: ESPN.com - Kris Rhim
5 months agoThe Los Angeles Chargers defense had a good game against the Cleveland Browns in a 27-10 Week 9 win. The Bolts made three interceptions, recorded six sacks, blocked a kick, and allowed just 10 points. All that was good for 19 fantasy points in a standard scoring league, far exceeding their projections. The Browns ended up scoring a touchdown on their last play of the game, as the Chargers had only allowed three points all game before that. It was a powerful performance, and they should be in for another good one in Week 10 against the Tennessee Titans.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers kicker
Cameron Dicker attempted five kicks in a Week 9 win over the Cleveland Browns. Dicker made three of his four extra point tries and missed his only field goal attempt. Dicker's field goal try came from 44 yards out. He's still one of the more consistent kickers in the NFL, but this was far from his best performance. Luckily, the Bolts were comfortably ahead and were able to wrap up a 27-10 win.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers tight end
Will Dissly (shoulder) only made two catches in a Week 9 win over the Cleveland Browns. Dissly has been dealing with a shoulder injury but came into the game without an official injury designation. He'd been very heavily involved in the passing game over the past three games, but with
Quentin Johnston returning from an ankle injury, Dissly again faded into a support role at best. He was targeted just three times, making his two catches for nine yards total. Dissly could have some touchdown-dependent value in fantasy leagues going forward, but his brief stint as a TE1 is likely over.

Joshua Palmer scored his first touchdown of the season in a Week 9 win over the Cleveland Browns. Palmer was targeted four times, making two catches for 63 yards. His touchdown came in the first quarter on a 28-yard pass from
Justin Herbert to open the scoring. His other catch was a 35-yarder. Palmer seems to be settling into a role as a big-play wide receiver instead of the heavily targeted one many expected before the season. He'll be hard to trust in Week 10 despite a good matchup against the Tennessee Titans.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver
Ladd McConkey made five catches in a 27-10 win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 9. McConkey led the team in targets with seven, and in catches with five. He was second in receiving yards with 64, behind
Quentin Johnston. McConkey was once again the main first look for quarterback
Justin Herbert and should continue to be a high-floor WR2/3 option throughout the season, especially in Week 10 with a game coming up against the Tennessee Titans.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Quentin Johnston (ankle) had a big game in his return to the starting lineup in Week 9. Johnston missed two games with an ankle injury but came back strong and looked good. He was targeted five times, making four catches for 118 yards and a touchdown. His touchdown was on a big 66-yard play in the second quarter. Johnston ended up leading the team in receiving yards and was second in catches and targets. He should continue to be heavily involved and could move into a consistent WR3 fantasy rank if the Chargers keep their offense going. They'll face the Tennessee Titans in Week 10.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers rookie running back
Kimani Vidal continued in his clear backup role in a 27-10 win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 9. Vidal carried the ball five times, gaining just seven yards total while not seeing a target in the passing game. Starter
J.K. Dobbins scored twice in this game and recorded 16 touches, with Vidal again sticking to an occasional change of pace and backup role. On his own, Vidal won't have any real fantasy value, but if Dobbins were to miss time, Vidal would step into his role and skyrocket into the RB2 ranks.

J.K. Dobbins scored two touchdowns in a Week 9 win over the Cleveland Browns. Dobbins commanded the backfield once again, carrying the ball 14 times, gaining 85 yards and scoring twice. He added two catches for 20 yards through the air, catching both of his targets. His first touchdown was a 16-yard run in the second quarter and his second was a seven-yard scamper in the fourth quarter. Dobbins continues to be the clear three-down RB1 in the LA backfield, as
Kimani Vidal was the only other Chargers back to record a carry, and he had only five. Dobbins and the Chargers will take on the Titans in Week 10, where Dobbins should again be in the RB1/2 conversation.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers quarterback
Justin Herbert played well in a 27-10 Week 9 win over the Cleveland Browns. Herbert attempted 27 passes, completing 18 of them for 282 yards and two touchdowns. He added two yards on the ground on three recorded carries while taking six sacks, losing 36 yards. Herbert's first touchdown was a 28-yard pass to
Joshua Palmer in the first quarter, and he followed it up with a 66-yard pass to
Quentin Johnston in the second. Herbert didn't need to do much in the second half as the Chargers just chewed lock and nursed their lead. He could have had a bigger game, but the Bolts defense held the Browns to just three points until the last drive of the game. Herbert and the Chargers will take on the Titans in Week 10.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa (hip) is officially active for Week 9 against the Cleveland Browns. He had been listed as questionable after logging three limited practices in a row. The 29-year-old returned last week from a three-game absence and is now active again on Sunday. He's looking to stay healthy for the back half of the season, building on his existing nine-tackle, two-sack campaign.

5 months agoLos Angeles Chargers wide receiver
DJ Chark (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. He had been listed as questionable after finishing the week with back-to-back limited practices. Even though Chark was a full participant in practice and was activated from injured reserve this weekend, he's going to be sidelined for at least one more week. Evidently, Chark wasn't going to have much of a role on offense behind
Ladd McConkey,
Quentin Johnston, and
Josh Palmer.
