Los Angeles Chargers DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver DJ Chark has been active for just two games this season, and he has not recorded a target. The former 1,000-yard receiver has reportedly struggled to make an impact with his fourth NFL team and is unlikely to see an upgrade in his role down the stretch. "Some guys are playing better than him," head coach Jim Harbaugh said. "It's a meritocracy out there." Chark was a second-round pick by the Jaguars in 2018 and has recorded at least 500 yards in each season of his career in which he played at least five games. However, any deep-league fantasy managers holding onto him can let him go, though he might be worth holding in dynasty setups since he will be a 28-year-old free agent this offseason.

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said that rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey (knee) is "working through a couple things" and that the team will evaluate him as the week progresses. "We'll see," Harbaugh said when asked about the possibility of McConkey practicing in preparation for the Week 14 contest on the road on Sunday night versus the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs. The 23-year-old impressive second-rounder put up nine catches for 117 yards on 12 targets in Sunday's win over the Atlanta Falcons, but he was injured late in the game and didn't return. McConkey's Week 14 status is now up in the air, and with the game being on Sunday night, it could make decisions very difficult for those that have McConkey rostered. The Georgia product has been a must-start in fantasy, but if he's out against KC, the Chargers will need Quentin Johnston, Joshua Palmer and DJ Chark to step up.

The Atlanta Falcons defense held the Chargers to just 17 points, the fewest amount of points they've held an opponent to all season, but they still lost the game as the offense could only produce 13 points. They were able to limit Los Angeles due in part to the five sacks that were recorded on the day. It was an impressive performance as the team came into the week with only 10 sacks on the season. Linebacker Arnold Ebiketie led the way with two of the five sacks. The defense also recovered a fumble, making them one of the top 10 defenses this week in terms of fantasy scoring. While next week's matchup against the Vikings may not be favorable, the Falcons have two solid matchups during the fantasy playoffs against the Raiders and the Giants that could make them an intriguing streaming option.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker made all three of his field goal tries in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Dicker did not get a chance to attempt any extra points. His three field goals came from 45, 51, and 34 yards out. It was another solid and predictably consistent performance from one of the NFL's most reliable kickers. He should once again be near the top of the kicker ranks in Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly put up a zero in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Dissly was on the injury report earlier in the week with a groin injury, but he practiced in full on Friday and came into the game with no injury designation. Still, he ended up with only one target thrown his way and was unable to make a catch on the play. The shutout was unexpected, as Dissly has been a high-floor tight end option most of the season, but the Chargers passing game went almost exclusively through Ladd McConkey. McConkey made nine catches while no one else on the Chargers made more than two. It was likely an anomaly, and as long as he's healthy, Dissly should return to his solid, reliable production next week against the Kansas City Chiefs.
