DJ Chark Jr.
WR - Los Angeles Chargers - IR
Availability
DJ Chark Jr. has been placed on IR by the Los Angeles Chargers ahead of the season opener on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Chark was previously ruled out for Week 1, but ultimately, his injury was deemed serious enough to be placed on IR and miss at least four games. In his absence, Derius Davis, Brenden Rice, and Simi Fehoko will likely see more playing time. However, none are likely to be fantasy-relevant unless the Chargers are more pass-heavy than anticipated.
DJ Chark Jr. (hip) has been ruled out for Week 1 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Fantasy Impact
Chark has missed practice all week because of a hip injury and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders. He will have a chance at playing in Week 2, and until then, Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston should both see increased usage in Los Angeles' offense.
DJ Chark Jr. (hip) is not suited up at Los Angeles' practice on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Chark has been dealing with a hip injury recently, and it looks like he is going to be a non-participant at Los Angeles' practice on Friday. He is trending towards not playing in Week 1, and if that turns out to be the case, rookie Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston will both be primed to see more work in his absence.
DJ Chark Jr. (hip) was a non-participant at practice on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Chark missed another practice on Thursday due to a hip injury. The exact severity of it is unclear, but it might be enough to force him to miss the first week of the regular season. If that's the case, Quentin Johnston and rookie Ladd McConkey will be primed to get more work in his absence.
DJ Chark Jr. (hip) officially did not participate at Los Angeles' practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Chark was not able to practice on Wednesday because of a hip injury that he's dealing with. It's a mildly serious issue, and it is threatening his availability for the team's season opener on Sunday. If he's unable to practice in the next couple of days, rookie Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston will both have more opportunities to make an impact in Week 1 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
