Ladd McConkey caught 5-of-7 targets for 46 yards in the Chargers’ Week 7 loss to the Cardinals.

22 October 2024

McConkey was victimized by two uncharacteristic drops as the Chargers were forced to the air 39 times against a Cardinals defense that emphasized stopping the run. While the seven targets were nice, the short-area role of McConkey in a typically low pass volume offense leaves a lot to be desired as far as fantasy expectations moving forward are concerned. Up next for McConkey and the Chargers is a reeling Saints team in Week 8.
