• Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Will be full go for camp

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  McConkey (hamstring) said he'll be "full go" for the start of training camp Wednesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports. The wideout will avoid placement on the active/PUP list after he battled a strained left hamstring during spring practices. McConkey had a down season in 2025 due in large part to the presence of Keenan Allen, who siphoned away targets in the middle of the field, but the veteran wasn't re-signed. McConkey is expected to be a featured part of new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's scheme that is built on speed and quickness. It would be a pretty big disappointment if McConkey isn't able to improve on his 66-789-6 receiving line over 16 regular-season games from last season after he went for 1,149 yards and seven touchdowns as a rookie in 2024 without Allen in the picture.

• Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Dealing with strained hamstring

  06/16/2026 • By RotoWire

  McConkey said Tuesday that he's tending to a left hamstring strain, Alex Insdorf of BoltBeat.com reports. Coach Jim Harbaugh told Insdorf earlier Tuesday that McConkey was "working through something" and would be limited to individual drills at this week's mandatory minicamp. McConkey clarified the nature of the injury not long afterward, while adding "let's get it healthy and ready to roll for" training camp. Through 32 regular-season games to begin his career, the 2024 second-round pick has tallied 148 catches on 218 targets for 1,938 yards and 13 touchdowns. McConkey will be seeking the second 1,000-yard campaign of his career under the direction of new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel.

• Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Limited to individual drills

  Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh said Tuesday that McConkey (undisclosed) is "working through something" and will be limited to individual drills at mandatory minicamp, Alex Insdorf of BoltBeat.com reports. Per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com, Harbaugh downplayed the severity of McConkey's injury, so it doesn't appear there's any level of concern about his status for the start of training camp in July. The wideout racked up 66 catches for 789 yards and six scores on 106 targets across 16 regular-season games in 2025, a step down from his rookie year production (82-1,149-7) in 2024. There are reasons to be optimistic about McConkey's chances of rebounding, however, with quarterback Justin Herbert slated to benefit from a healthy offensive line, new OC Mike McDaniel bringing a spark to the offense, and Keenan Allen no longer providing competition for underneath targets.

• Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Leads team with 32 receiving yards

  01/12/2026 • By RotoWire

  McConkey had three receptions on four targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 16-3 wild-card loss to the Patriots. The Chargers failed to keep QB Justin Herbert upright against New England's aggressive pass rush Sunday, resulting in barely any shots being taken downfield in a muted performance by the offense. McConkey wound up leading the team in receiving and grabbing the longest reception (20 yards) of the night for his club despite registering a forgettable stat line in the season-ending loss. The sophomore had a down year in 2025, finishing the regular season with 16 fewer receptions, 360 less yards and one fewer touchdown in the same amount of games played as his stellar rookie campaign (82-1,149-7). McConkey will attempt to reestablish himself as one of Justin Herbert's top receiving options and budding stars of the league when the Chargers regroup this upcoming offseason.

• Chargers' Ladd McConkey: WRs to Sit

  01/01/2026 • By Jamey Eisenberg

  McConkey has scored 4.1 PPR points or less in three of his past four games prior to Week 18, and he's been among the biggest busts this season. That's one problem. Another problem is he's facing the Broncos, who held him to four catches for 41 yards on seven targets in Week 3. And, finally, with Justin Herbert not expected to play, McConkey might sit as well. It also isn't ideal to trust McConkey if Trey Lance is the starting quarterback. I would try to avoid all the main Chargers receivers in Week 18 if you can.
