Ladd McConkey

Josh Downs, Courtland Sutton and Ladd McConkey should be in your lineups as you make a push for the fantasy playoffs.

This week's rookie roundup breaks down the race between Bo Nix and Jayden Daniels for top rookie honors and highlights an L.A. Ladd.

Yahoo Sports fantasy analyst Tera Roberts breaks down why the Chargers WR is a smart play for fantasy managers in Week 12.

McConkey started hot with a 20-yard reception on the team's opening drive but would be forced from the game after landing on his shoulder on the long reception. The team initially deemed him questionable to return before he made his way back onto the field in the second quarter. He made two key receptions on the team's final possession to place them in position to sneak out of Week 11 with a win after squandering a 21-point third quarter lead, improving to 7-3 in the process. McConkey could once again be busy through the air against the pass-funnel Ravens in Week 12.

Palmer suddenly finds himself behind rookie Ladd McConkey, tight end Will Dissly, and second-year wide receiver Quentin Johnston in the weekly target pecking order for the Chargers. While unlikely to see consistent volume, a deep 13.9 average depth of target could return sporadic fantasy viability should he connect on a deep pass or two, something that could come to fruition when the Chargers host the Ravens in Week 12.
