Ladd McConkey
WR - Los Angeles Chargers
Week 5 Outlook
Availability
Ladd McConkey caught five of his seven targets for 67 yards and a touchdown in a 17-10 loss to the Chiefs in Week 4.
Fantasy Impact
McConkey led the Chargers in targets, catches, and receiving yards while scoring the team's only touchdown of the game. The rookie wideout has now scored two touchdowns on the year while racking up 15 catches for 176 yards with his 67 receiving yards in Week 4 a new career high. McConkey will be on bye in Week 5 before he takes on the Broncos in Week 6.
Ladd McConkey caught 3-of-6 targets for 44 yards in the Chargers' 20-10 loss to the Steelers.
Fantasy Impact
McConkey tied Quentin Johnston for the team lead in receiving yards Sunday. This marks the highest yardage total for the rookie over the first three weeks of the season. The 22-year-old will look to continue his success against the Chiefs in Week 4.
Ladd McConkey caught two of four targets for 26 yards in the Chargers' 26-3 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
McConkey was not involved much in the win, he wasn't really needed. The Chargers built up a lead quickly over the hapless Panthers. Ladd may be more involved in more competitive games but his upside will be limited in the low passing volume offense.
Ladd McConkey caught 5-of-7 targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in a 22-10 win over the Raiders.
Fantasy Impact
McConkey found the end zone on a 10-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter to seal the win for the Chargers. The rookie wideout lead the team in receptions, yards, and targets, which is an excellent sign for fantasy managers. McConkey and the Chargers will look to take advantage of a favorable matchup against Carolina in Week 2.
Ladd McConkey is still still projected to start in the slot for Chargers this season despite quiet preseason.
Fantasy Impact
McConkey should see the field plenty in 11 personnel. The question for fantasy managers will be if he sees the field in 12 personnel with only two wide receivers on the field. Nonetheless as part of a shallow Chargers wide receiver room, he has the chance to be a target hog right away for Justin Herbert.
