    Ladd McConkey (concussion) will practice on Wednesday.

    The Chargers’ No. 1 wide receiver could resume practicing in full today, after recovering during the team’s Week 7 bye. If McConkey is limited, an update will be provided. Exactly one week ago, The Athletic’s Noah Furtado reported that the Chargers will try to “simplify” the team’s offense in the coming weeks. They face an underperforming Rams defense in Week 8 and could (maybe) generate a bounce-back performance.
Moore returns from injury, should you start him?
Can DJ Moore turn around his season after notching just one reception in the month of October? Patrick Daugherty and Denny Carter are cautiously optimistic.

    Harris missed Week 6 before the team’s Week 7 bye but could be held out for an additional week given the nature of his injury. Fantasy managers will want to confirm his status on the team’s final injury report Friday to gauge the viability of entering him back into lineups for Week 8. Fellow wide receiver Ladd McConkey (concussion) got in his second consecutive full session and should be good to go for Week 8.
  • LAC Quarterback #10
    Justin Herbert and the flailing Chargers skill position players have appeared almost comically confused about all the pre-snap motion OC Mike McDaniel uses. That came through in the team’s embarrassing Week 6 loss to the Chiefs when players were bumping into each other during pre-snap motion calls from Herbert. Head coach Jim Harbaugh acknowledged the team is considering narrowing the offensive playbook during their bye week. “Definitely looking at volume and where you can make it to where the players can understand,” Harbaugh said when asked about how Chargers players were adjusting to McDaniel’s complex offense. The Chargers have used pre-snap motion on 74 percent of their snaps, the fourth highest rate in the NFL. Last year they used motion on 56 percent of their snaps. Hopefully these adjustments lead to some production for the NFL’s worst offense.

    McConkey exited the game after a 17-yard reception in the first quarter and was seen entering the blue medical tent before being helped to the locker room. The quickness with which he was ruled out could mean the injury is on the severe side. The Chargers are down to their fifth and sixth wideouts on the depth chart. Justin Herbert likely won’t be fantasy relevant for the rest of the season.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #15
    Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh said he did not know if McConkey or Quentin Johnston would be on snap counts on Sunday. Cool. What we do know is that the Chargers desperately need a win and McConkey is their best receiver, so the incentives are certainly aligned to get McConkey into the fantasy WR3 discussion even with a pitch count.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #15
    McConkey is on track to once again be active on game day, but it is unclear how involved he will be. Two limited sessions are a good sign, but it would be great to see him practice fully tomorrow. In that instance, starting him as a WR2 would be far more palatable.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #15
    We, in turn, expect McConkey to be listed as a limited participant. An update will be provided if he practices in full. The Chargers’ No. 1 wide receiver was an emergency active last week, goose-egging in the box score. His early-week return to practice puts him on track to play in Week 6 against the Chiefs, but it would be great to see him practice in full by the end of the week.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #15
    McConkey was active last week but an emergency-only player and played zero snaps. With the Chargers having a Week 7 bye, we’d be surprised if they pushed McConkey to play unless they really needed him. Unfortunately, since he was already active last week, we know that they may really need him. His status is up in the air ahead of Week 6.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #15
    McConkey did not practice at all this week but was still given a questionable tag on Friday. He was always a long-shot to play after aggravating his foot injury in Week 4. With Quentin Johnston out this week as well, Tre’ Harris will be Justin Herbert’s No. 1 receiver. That puts him in the WR3 mix despite the Chargers’ dismal offensive performance through four weeks.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #15
    McConkey did not practice all week — though they might tack something on in the non-media period on Friday to make it look better — and is clearly just trying to gut it out at this point. He’ll likely be on a snap count if he does play. But Denver’s cornerback room is severely banged up, so McConkey likely remains in low-end WR2 range this week.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #15
    McConkey is firmly on the wrong side of questionable at this point, and unfortunately, the rest of the Chargers’ wide receiver corps is fairly banged up. The Chargers are on bye in Week 7. Hopefully, McConkey’s foot injury is not serious enough to keep him out until Week 8. Stay tuned.

    Christian Watson is questionable to return in Week 9 against the Panthers with a chest injury.

    Watson was hurt on a deep pass in the middle of the second quarter, and went to the locker room to be evaluated. The 27-year-old was playing well prior to the injury with six catches for 100 yards on his seven targets. Matthew Golden will be the primary wideout target for Jordan Love if Watson can’t return.

    Jack Bech (forearm) was a full participant in Thursday’s practice.

    That’s back-to-back full practices for Bech after the Raiders opened up the 21-day window for the wideout. He’s worth monitoring in redraft leagues in part because the options ahead of him aren’t exactly elite, but fantasy managers don’t need to consider a stash just yet.

    Jadarian Price (chest) was a limited participant during Thursday’s practice.

    Price gets in the limited session after coach Mike Macdonald said that it was realistic that the tailback could be back Monday night against the Bears in Week 8. Zach Charbonnet was a full participant Thursday, so the Seattle backfield could finally be at full strength — or close to it, anyway — for the stretch. That’s nice for the Seahawks, but creates a lot of confusion from a fantasy perspective.

    Rashid Shaheed did not practice Thursday.

    Shaheed received positive news on his knee injury that caused him to leave Sunday’s blowout win over the Chiefs, but there’s a pretty good chance that he’s going to miss at least Week 8’s game against Chicago on Monday. Assuming that’s the case, it will lead to more snaps for Tory Horton both as a receiver and as the primary returner.

    Zach Charbonnet (knee) was a full participant during Monday’s practice.

    It’s obviously a positive development for Charbonnet, who appears to be on track for his season debut against the Bears in Week 9. Fantasy managers just have to keep in mind that the rug was pulled from underneath last week when the Seahawks ruled the tailback out late in the week. Jadarian Price (chest) was a limited participant, but fantasy managers who want to use a Seattle tailback on Monday night won’t have clarity until Saturday at the earliest.

    Tyler Allgeier (toe) was a limited participant during Thursday’s practice.

    Allgeier was able to get a bump up after a DNP for Wednesday. It appears to just be a case of rest for the 26-year-old, but fantasy managers who will consider Allgeier for Week 8 against the Cowboys if Jeremiyah Love (ankle) can’t go — Love was also limited Thursday — should keep an eye on Friday’s designation.

    Jeremiyah Love (ankle) was listed as a limited participate in practice Thursday.

    That’s a second straight limited session for Love. The Cardinals are taking this slowly with the 21-year-old ahead of a potential return in Week 8 against the Cowboys, but fantasy managers will obviously need to pay close attention to how much he practices Friday and his injury designation.

    Panthers declared TE Ja’Tavion Sanders, OLB Jaelan Phillips, QB Haynes King, RB AJ Dillon, G Damien Lewis, G Torricelli Simpkins, and DT Bobby Brown inactive for Week 8 against the Packers.

    The Panthers are extremely shorthanded along the offensive line and on the defensive side of the ball, most notably in the secondary and with the pass rush. That could spell trouble agains the high-powered Green Bay passing game, particularly with wide receiver Matthew Golden active. The Panthers look to halt their recent skid on the road in hostile territory at Lambeau Field.

    Matthew Golden (shoulder/foot) is active for Week 8 against the Panthers.

    Golden got in a lone limited session in preparation for the team’s Week 8 meeting with the Panthers on a short week, ultimately able to go as he looks to continue to recent hot stretch in fantasy production. No limitation in expected role has been passed by the team, meaning Golden should be good to go for a normal workload against the Panthers. Fantasy managers can confidently insert him into Week 8 rosters as an upside WR2. Inactive for the Packers are TE Jonnu Smith, RB Kaleb Johnson, LB Zaire Franklin, G Donovan Jennings, C Sean Rhyan, and G Travis Glover.

    Colby Parkinson (ribs) did not practice Thursday.

    Parkinson will have one more chance to get back no the practice field Friday to avoid an injury designation entering the weekend. The veteran tight end was in and out of the team’s Week 7 game with the injury but managed to finish it, apparently feeling much worse after the adrenaline wore off. Fantasy managers of Parkinson and Tyler Higbee will want to track Parkinson’s status closely to end the week. An absence from Parkinson could also bring Davis Allen into the fantasy spotlight after the young tight end scored twice against the Raiders.
