Los Angeles Chargers DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (calf) is listed as questionable heading into his team's season finale against the Miami Dolphins in Week 18. Assuming Conklin is able to play through his calf injury he draws a plus matchup against a Dolphins defense that is allowing the 12th-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season. Conklin turned in his best fantasy performance of the season in a Week 17 loss to the Buffalo Bills and will be worth a look as a TE2 in fantasy this Sunday if he ultimately suits up on Sunday.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker is a strong choice for Week 18 fantasy lineups when the Chargers take on the Las Vegas Raiders. Dicker has been one of the league's most consistent and reliable kickers all season and should remain that way in the regular season finale. While most of the Chargers starters are in a holding pattern awaiting the results of Saturday's Bengals-Steelers game, Dicker is one Charger fantasy asset who will be a top-10 option at his position regardless of the result of any other matchup.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly doesn't have much upside in a Week 18 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Dissly will share snaps with Stone Smartt and possibly also with Hayden Hurst in a game that could see a lot of Chargers starters getting some rest. Dissly would seemingly have the highest floor of the three Bolts tight ends, but he's still in the middle of TE2 rankings at best.

According to sources, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Trey Lance is expected to play his first significant snaps of the season in the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday versus the division-rival Washington Commanders. Earlier on Friday, owner Jerry Jones said on 105.3 The Fan that the team won't reveal who they will start in Week 18 until Sunday, which is further evidence that Lance could make the start over Cooper Rush to close out a disappointing season. From 2022 through 17 weeks this season, Lance has attempted just 20 passes in game action. Rush has been the starting QB for Dallas since Dak Prescott suffered a season-ending hamstring injury in Week 9, but it looks like Lance is going to see some run in Week 18. He won't have top wideout CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) to work with and could come in as relief for Rush on Sunday, so the 24-year-old will be a high risk for a potentially low reward in fantasy.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston is a decent option for Week 18 fantasy lineups. Whether or not the Chargers will play to win on Sunday depends on the results of Saturday's Bengals-Steelers game, but Johnston is likely to play regardless. With Josh Palmer (foot) already ruled out and Ladd McConkey potentially getting some rest before the playoffs, "QJ" could be the lead receiver for the Chargers for at least part of this game. He has some touchdown upside and a decently high floor as well.
