Hurt will be playing for the first time since the end of November after being placed on injured reserve with his hip injury He isn't likely to be a major fantasy contributor, but with Will Dissly (shoulder) inactive, it could open up some snaps/targets. The remaining inactives for the Chargers are CB Cam Hart S Elijah Molden LB Shaquille Quarterman OL Brenden Jaimes OL Jordan McFadden and QB Easton Stick (emergency QB)
Justin Herbert will have his go-to WR active for the Chargers' must-win Week 15 game. Herbert will, unfortunately, be without Will Dissly (shoulder), who ties for the team's second-highest target tally (53) behind McConkey's 80. The Chargers also declared Denzel Perryman, DL Justin Eboigbe, OL Brenden Jaimes, OL Jordan McFadden and QB Easton Stick (emergency 3rd QB) inactive for Week 15 against the Buccaneers.
McConkey played through an AC joint injury in his shoulder for the previous three games before injuring his knee late in the team's Week 13 win over the Falcons, ultimately unable to suit up after limited showings to end the week. Also inactive for the Chargers are QB Easton Stick, LB Denzel Perryman, S Tony Jefferson, OL Brenden Jaimes, OL Jordan McFadden, and DL Justin Eboigbe.
