Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (thigh, illness) is active for the wild-card game against the Houston Texans on Saturday, Jan. 11.
Huddle Up: Johnston went nuclear in the final game of the regular season, but he remains a boom-or-bust DFS option against the Texans.
Posted 1/11/2025 8:07 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (ankle) is active for the wild-card game against the Houston Texans on Saturday, Jan. 11.
Huddle Up: Dobbins has been a strong fantasy football asset all year long, but he's a bit shakier of a lineup option this week considering Houston gave up the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to running backs in 2024.
Posted 1/09/2025 10:01 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB Gus Edwards (ankle) fully participated in practice Thursday, Jan. 9, and is not on the injury report for the Wild Card playoff game.
Huddle Up: Edwards' role in the offense will depend on if J.K. Dobbins is able to play in the game. He will see most of the work if Dobbins sits out and can be a flex option but probably will see limited work if Dobbins plays and would only be a possible flex option.
Posted 1/09/2025 9:58 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (illness, thigh) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 9, and is listed as questionable for the Wild Card playoff game.
Huddle Up: Johnston returned to practice Thursday, so he had a decent chance to play against the Houston Texans. He will see a good amount of targets if he plays and can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (ankle) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 9, and is listed as questionable for the Wild Card playoff game.
Huddle Up: Dobbins was a limited participant in all three practices, so fantasy players should monitor the situation to see if he will be able to play this week. He probably will see a majority of the carries if he plays and can be at least a flex option in leagues.
Posted 1/09/2025 9:50 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Joshua Palmer (foot) did not participate in practice Thursday, Jan. 9, and has been ruled out of the Wild Card playoff game.
Huddle Up: Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston will be the main options in the passing game if Johnston plays since Palmer is not available. Both McConkey and Johnston can be starting options in fantasy leagues if both play.
Posted 1/09/2025 3:02 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey became one of seven rookie receivers since 2015 to finish with at least 80 receptions and 1,100 yards.
Huddle Up: McConkey closed the year by topping 80 receiving yards in six of the last seven games, establishing himself as the steadiest option in the Chargers' passing attack. He should be viewed as a WR1 heading into postseason contests.
Posted 1/09/2025 12:25 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB Gus Edwards (ankle) was limited during practice Wednesday, Jan. 8.
Huddle Up: Edwards did not play in the regular season finale but seems to have a chance to play against the Houston Texans. He probably will see a decent amount of touches if he plays and could be a flex option in some fantasy leagues.
Posted 1/09/2025 12:16 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (ankle) was limited during practice Wednesday, Jan. 8.
Huddle Up: Dobbins seems to have a decent chance to play in the playoff game, but fantasy players will know more in the next day or two. He likely will receive most of the carries in the running game if he plays and can be a starting option in fantasy leagues.
Posted 1/09/2025 12:13 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Joshua Palmer (foot) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Jan. 8.
Huddle Up: Palmer was not available for the Week 18 game and appears likely to miss another game after two missed practices. Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation but should look for other options to use.
Posted 1/09/2025 12:06 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (illness, thigh) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Jan. 8.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players should monitor the situation over the next few days if see if Johnston will be available for the Wild Card playoff game. He is coming off an outstanding Week 18 performance has been targeted at least six times in each of the last five games. He can be at least a flex option in leagues if he plays.
Posted 1/08/2025 4:05 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB Gus Edwards (ankle) was limited in practice on Tuesday, Jan. 7.
Huddle Up: Tuesday's session marks the first time in exactly two weeks that Edwards participated in a practice. It remains to be seen if he can ramp up enough over the next two days to get cleared to play against the Houston Texans. With that said, Edwards offers very little upside against a stout Houston run defense and should be avoided if possible in most playoff leagues or DFS contests.
Posted 1/08/2025 3:31 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (thigh) was limited in practice on Tuesday, Jan. 7.
Huddle Up: Johnston appears on the practice report a couple of days after ripping up the secondary of the Las Vegas Raiders for 186 yards on 13 catches. He did not appear to be limited in any way during that contest, so it seems likely the Chargers are just managing his reps ahead of their road game versus the Houston Texans in the Wild Card Round.
Posted 1/07/2025 10:38 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (ankle) was limited at practice Tuesday, Jan. 7.
Huddle Up: Dobbins avoided an injury after a scary tackle but it's no surprise he's on the injury report. The Houston Texans were solid against the run during the regular season, but Dobbins' workload and success this season make him a solid starting option.
Posted 1/06/2025 3:35 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers TE Will Dissly ended up with five receptions for 42 yards and a touchdown on six targets in Week 18 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Huddle Up: Dissly spent time this season as a borderline low-end TE1 or top TE2 in most fantasy leagues in the regular season. However, in postseason leagues he is certainly a decent enough low-end TE1 in most leagues. The Chargers travel to meet the Houston Texans Saturday in the wild-card round.
Posted 1/06/2025 3:31 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey ended up with five receptions for 95 yards on eight targets in Week 18 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Huddle Up: McConkey had at least five receptions in each of his final seven games, and at least 83 yards in six of those seven outings. He finished with 77 receptions, 1,054 yards and seven scores, and he is a legit WR1 in all fantasy postseason leagues. The Chargers travel to meet the Houston Texans Saturday in the wild-card round.
Posted 1/06/2025 3:26 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston ended up with 13 receptions for 186 yards in Week 18 against the Las Vegas Raiders, while he was targeted 14 times.
Huddle Up: Q-Money had a giant game, and he will look to carry that momentum into the AFC wild-card game against the Houston Texans on the road Saturday. Normally he is more of a WR4 or flex fantasy option, but in postseason fantasy leagues he could be a low-end WR2 or flex option while serving as a decent mid-tier DFS play.
Posted 1/06/2025 3:23 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB Hassan Haskins rushed 12 times for 33 yards and a touchdown in Week 18 against the Las Vegas Raiders, while he was not targeted in the pass game.
Huddle Up: Haskins was seeing a bigger role in the regular-season finale, but he will likely see a reduced part in the offseason in the wild-card round if Gus Edwards is back with J.K. Dobbins in the Los Angeles backfield Saturday in Houston.
Posted 1/06/2025 3:16 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins ran 18 times for a game-high 63 yards in Week 18 against the Las Vegas Raiders, while adding three receptions for 12 yards on three targets.
Huddle Up: Dobbins was handling a majority of the touches, while Hassan Haskins was the primary backup. Dobbins could be a sneaky RB1 in postseason fantasy leagues, especially if the Chargers can win on the road Saturday in the wild-card round in Houston.
Posted 1/06/2025 3:13 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert completed 28-of-36 passes for 346 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 18 against the Las Vegas Raiders, while running four times for 42 yards.
Huddle Up: Herbert did a good job single-handedly lifting the Bolts to their 11th win of the season, and the fifth seed. The Chargers will travel to meet the Houston Texans in the wild-card round on Saturday afternoon. He is a tremendous QB1 in all fantasy postseason leagues and as a DFS option.
Posted 1/04/2025 4:47 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins faces the Las Vegas Raiders in the season finale, and Dobbins ran for 135 yards and a touchdown against the Raiders back in Week 1.
Huddle Up: Dobbins ran the ball 19 times in his return from injury last week, so the Chargers seem comfortable giving him a heavy workload. Don't be surprised if he ends his season the way it began with a big game against the Raiders, especially if the Pittsburgh Steelers lose Saturday and the No. 5 seed is up for grabs.
Posted 1/03/2025 10:59 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (toe) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 3, and is not on the injury report for Week 18.
Huddle Up: McConkey should receive his normal workload this week and has posted at least 80 yards in five of the last six games. He has become a must-start option in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 1/03/2025 10:54 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Joshua Palmer (foot) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 3, and has been ruled out for Week 18.
Huddle Up: Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston likely will receive most of the targets in the passing game this week with Palmer injured. McConkey should be a starting option in all leagues, while Johnston could be a possible flex option in leagues.
Posted 1/03/2025 10:53 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB Gus Edwards (ankle) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 3, and has been ruled out for Week 18.
Huddle Up: J.K. Dobbins should receive most of the snaps at running back with Gus Edwards unavailable and can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.
Posted 1/02/2025 11:34 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (toe) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 2.
Huddle Up: McConkey seems to have a chance to play in the regular season finale, but fantasy players will know more in the next day or two. He is the main option in the passing game when healthy and should be a starting option in all leagues if active.
Posted 1/02/2025 11:33 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Joshua Palmer (foot) did not participate in practice Thursday, Jan. 2.
Huddle Up: Palmer's status for Week 18 appears to be in question after missing the first two practices of the week. The team may consider hold Palmer out since the Chargers have clinched a playoff spot, so fantasy players should look for other options to use.
Posted 1/02/2025 11:29 pm GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB Gus Edwards (ankle) did not participate in practice Thursday, Jan. 2.
Huddle Up: Edwards has missed the first two practices of the week, so he seems to be unlikely to play in Week 18. J.K. Dobbins likely will receive most of the work at running back this week and can be at least a flex option in all leagues.
Posted 1/02/2025 1:33 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers WR Joshua Palmer (foot) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Jan. 1.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players can check on Palmer's status later in the week to see if he will be able to play in Week 18. He has posted 41 yards in each of the last two games but probably can be avoided in most leagues even if he is active for the game.
Posted 1/02/2025 1:30 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers RB Gus Edwards (ankle) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Jan. 1.
Huddle Up: Edwards was not available for the Week 17 game and the team may decide to hold him out until the playoffs. J.K. Dobbins likely will receive most of the work in the running game and should be a starting option in all leagues.
