Los Angeles Chargers

Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards carried the ball six times in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. He gained 32 yards on the ground, with a long of 12 yards. In the passing game, he was targeted once, making a one-yard catch on the play. As expected, Edwards took the starting role in the backfield with J.K. Dobbins (knee) on IR, but the touches just weren't there, as the Bolts ran the ball only 17 times total, split between five different players. Edwards and the whole Chargers offense will likely need to do a lot more next week when they take on the division-leading Kansas City Chiefs.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert game managed his way to a 17-13 win over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 13. Herbert didn't put up a strong fantasy performance despite a good matchup, but despite the close final score, the Chargers seemed mostly in control throughout the game. Herbert ended up attempting 23 passes, completing 16 of them for 147 yards. He took five sacks, losing 19 yards, but didn't throw any touchdowns or interceptions. On the ground, Herbert turned five "carries" into one total yard. The Bolts will face the Chiefs in Week 14, where Herbert will almost certainly have to do a lot more.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey (knee) caught nine of 11 targets for 117 yards before exiting during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. McConkey was seen limping repeatedly throughout the game, and the injury evidently worsened enough that the rookie needed to depart the contest in the final quarter. The Chargers listed McConkey as questionable to return, but he ultimately stayed on the sideline for the rest of the game. He has been one of the NFL's most productive rookie receivers this season, catching 58 passes for 815 yards and four touchdowns. He'll rank as a WR2 in Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs, but only if he's healthy enough to play. Fantasy managers should monitor his status on the Chargers' injury reports next week.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver DJ Chark is officially active for Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons. This is noteworthy given that Chark missed the early portion of the season due to a hip injury and has been a healthy scratch on numerous occasions since being activated from injured reserve. In fact, he has only been on the field for one offensive snap this season and has failed to log a target. Moving forward, he remains buried behind Ladd McConkey, Josh Palmer, Quentin Johnston, and Jalen Reagor on the depth chart.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Kimani Vidal should be back on the field in a Week 13 game against the Atlanta Falcons. Vidal has been inactive since Week 9, but with J.K. Dobbins (knee) heading to IR, Vidal should at least play a small role going forward. He has the talent to overtake the veterans currently ahead of him, Gus Edwards and Hassan Haskins. The Chargers will probably give the reins to Edwards this week, but Vidal is worth stashing for the fantasy playoffs.
