        Josh Palmer Will Play Week 11

        7:29pm UTC 11/14/25

        Bills WR Josh Palmer (knee, ankle) is off the final injury report. He’ll play vs. the Buccaneers on Sunday for the first time since Week 6. Palmer averaged just 3.6 targets and 2.4 catches over five healthy games to open the season and isn’t a viable Week 11 fantasy start.

        Josh Palmer "Week-To-Week" With Knee Injury

        10:25pm UTC 10/14/25

        Bills WR Josh Palmer is "week-to-week" with the knee injury that knocked him out of Monday night's loss to the Falcons, HC Sean McDermott said. Palmer gets a Week 7 bye, but it sounds like he could miss time beyond that. He's drawn just 11.1% of Buffalo's targets so far this season, so his absence would be just a slight upgrade for the team's other pass catchers.

        Ladd McConkey Ready For Week 18

        5:32pm UTC 1/3/25

        Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (toe) is not listed on the final injury report after putting in a full practice on Friday. The toe isn’t a concern. The Chargers will have nothing to gain in Sunday’s game against the Raiders if the Steelers win on Saturday, though. We’ll wait on the result of that game and see what it might mean for McConkey’s playing time. WR Josh Palmer (foot) is out for Week 18.

        Josh Palmer Has Heel Injury

        8:27am UTC 12/31/24

        Chargers WR Josh Palmer suffered a heel injury in Saturday's win over the Patriots. HC Jim Harbaugh didn't have an update on the severity on Monday but said that IR isn't on the table. We'll look for more information on Palmer's injury but don't expect him to play in Sunday's finale vs. the Raiders. That could mean more snaps for guys like D.J. Chark and Derius Davis, although neither would be a bankable Week 18 fantasy start.

        Josh Palmer Back For Week 4

        8:40pm UTC 9/27/24

        Chargers WR Josh Palmer (elbow, calf) practiced all week and is off the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs. Palmer shouldn’t be in Week 4 fantasy lineups, but his return adds target competition for WRs Quentin Johnston and Ladd McConkey.

        Josh Palmer Out Wednesday

        4:12pm UTC 9/18/24

        Chargers WR Josh Palmer (calf, elbow) did not practice on Wednesday. He was dealing with a knee injury last week and now has two new issues. We'll keep tabs on Palmer's status leading up to Sunday's game vs. the Steelers, but he shouldn't be in your Week 3 fantasy plans. Palmer's absence would mean more target opportunity for WRs Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston.

        Justin Herbert Has Foot Injury, Should Be Ready For Week 1

        3:30pm UTC 8/1/24

        Chargers QB Justin Herbert has been diagnosed with a plantar fascia injury in his right foot, the team announced. "Doctors have recommended approximately two weeks in a boot — followed by a graduated return to play protocol — with the expectation that he will be ready for the start of the regular season," the team said in a statement.

        Josh Palmer set to play Week 15

        8:19pm UTC 12/12/23

        Chargers WR Josh Palmer (knee) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice and was activated to the 53-man roster. He's set to play vs. the Raiders on Thursday night for the first time since Week 8. Palmer figures to slide back in as Los Angeles' No. 2 WR but isn't a very attractive fantasy option with QB Easton Stick. Palmer would at least be a WR4 consideration if WR Keenan Allen's heel injury keeps him out on Thursday night.

        Joshua Palmer's practice window opens

        10:11am UTC 12/6/23

        The Chargers are designating WR Joshua Palmer to return from IR, opening his 21-day practice window. HC Brandon Staley just last week described Palmer's situation by saying "there's still a possibility" that he'd return from IR, according to The Athletic's Daniel Popper. That suggests we can't assume Palmer will be ready to return from his knee injury and play in Week 14. And it'll be tough to throw him into fantasy lineups right away, unless we get word from Chargers coaches that he's all the way back. Still, we have mentioned Palmer in our waiver wire article each of the past two weeks on this chance of return. If he does make it back to full participation, we'd bet on Palmer re-emerging as the No. 2 wideout in an offense that needs him. Stash Palmer early if you can ... if that makes sense for your roster, of course.

        Josh Palmer to miss more than four games?

        10:53am UTC 11/10/23

        Chargers WR Josh Palmer will miss at least four total games (three more) with his knee injury. But HC Brandon Staley hinted Wednesday that Palmer might miss more time. "He'll be out for the four weeks for sure and then we'll just see from there," Staley said. Asked if he's expecting Palmer back this season, Staley replied, "no expectations." We still don't have any details on the type or severity of Palmer's knee injury. We'll keep an eye out for that info, but Palmer is not a must-stash on fantasy benches. His absence will continue to provide a big opportunity for WR Quentin Johnston. He predictably struggled against a tough Jets secondary last week but ran a route on a season-high 95% of pass plays.

        Josh Palmer sidelined Thursday

        8:58pm UTC 11/2/23

        Chargers WR Josh Palmer (knee) did not practice on Thursday. He battled through this injury last week but managed just three catches for 24 yards on a deflated 68% snap rate. Between the knee and a matchup vs. the Jets' top-ranked WR defense, Palmer is shaping up as a shaky Week 9 fantasy play.

        Chargers WR Josh Palmer (knee) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. It's officially time to worry about his status for Sunday night's game vs. the Bears. We'll see if Palmer gets on the practice field tomorrow and how he's listed on the final injury report.

        Chargers WR Joshua Palmer (groin) is active for tonight's game vs. the Cowboys. He was added to the injury report on Sunday, adding risk to his fantasy outlook tonight. Palmer is available if you waited on him in season-long leagues, but he's a fade in one-game DFS contests.

        Chargers WR Joshua Palmer (groin) is expected to play vs. the Cowboys tonight, "barring a setback," according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Palmer was curiously added to the injury report as questionable on Sunday. It adds some risk to using him in Week 6 fantasy lineups. We'll get the Chargers' inactives around 7 pm ET tonight.

        Mike Williams done for season with torn ACL

        12:19pm UTC 9/25/23

        Chargers WR Mike Williams has been diagnosed with a torn left ACL and will miss the rest of the 2023 season, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The timing of the injury at least gives Williams a good chance to be ready for the start of the 2024 campaign. He turns 29 in about a week and is officially signed with the Chargers for next season. But his contract currently carries a $32.5 million cap hit. Williams will need to restructure that deal to remain with the team. His absence for the rest of this season leaves behind big opportunity. Williams averaged 8.7 targets on a 21.3% share through three games. WR Josh Palmer is the better immediate bet for production with Williams out. But first-round rookie WR Quentin Johnston is the higher-upside longer-term bet. WR Keenan Allen, RB Austin Ekeler (once healthy), and TE Gerald Everett should also see a bit more volume without Williams.

        Mike Williams possibly done for season?

        7:37am UTC 9/25/23

        NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the Chargers fear WR Mike Williams may have suffered a "potentially" season-ending left knee injury in Sunday's win over the Vikings. He'll have an MRI today to confirm the diagnosis. Losing Williams would present opportunity to rookie WR Quentin Johnston and third-year WR Josh Palmer. Each will be worth a look on the waiver wire this week, with Johnston carrying more upside.

        Keenan Allen is a monster

        7:17pm UTC 9/24/23

        Chargers WR Keenan Allen racked up 20 targets, 18 catches, and 215 yards in Sunday's win at Minnesota. He even added a 49-yard TD pass to WR Mike Williams in the third quarter. Allen claimed 42.6% of QB Justin Herbert's pass attempts, in a game Williams left late with an injury. Allen looks like a weekly must-start as long as he remains healthy. Williams tallied 7 receptions and 121 yards on 8 targets, which ranked a distant second. WR Josh Palmer posted a 4-66-1 receiving line on 7 targets. He'll be worth claiming off the waiver wire in many fantasy football leagues this week, if Williams appears to be in danger of missing the Week 4 home date with the Raiders.
