Through two games, Ladd McConkey has been underwhelming. Yes, his rib injury is part of the entire equation, but the entire Chargers offense has been a rollercoaster so far. Last week, despite having a 45.2% snap share, he had a 67.7% route share. Are either of these usage rates great? No. Also, when you pair it with the fact that in Week 2 he had an 11.1% target share and 11.8% first-read share, it's tough to feel good about McConkey right now. Overall, he has an 18.5% target share, 3.08 YPRR, an 18.4% first-read share, two red zone targets, and zero deep targets. In weekly fantasy scoring, he has finished as the WR12 and WR59 so far this season. He has a solid matchup this week, so we'll see if McConkey can bounce back, but he's just a risky flex play this week. Buffalo has allowed the sixth-most yards per target and the eighth-most fantasy points per target to slot receivers.

Ladd McConkey (rib) logged a full practice session to start the week on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

McConkey was able to play through his rib injury last week and is now a full participant to start this week, meaning that he is close to full health and should be fully good to go for Week 3. He had an underwhelming performance last week but has a chance to bounce back this week in what should be a competitive matchup against the Bills on Sunday.
