Los Angeles Chargers DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly (groin) upgraded to a limited participant in practice on Thursday. He had been a non-participant Wednesday. Dissly has played quite well lately, catching 13 passes for 157 yards and one touchdown over his last three games. Fantasy managers invested in Dissly's status should check back on Friday to see if he ends up with any sort of injury designation. At the very least, he's trending in the right direction and ranks as a mid-to-high fantasy TE2 for the time being.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly (knee) did not practice on Wednesday with a knee injury. The tight end did not show any sign of this injury on Monday evening as he was deployed as the clear TE1 in the Los Angeles offense. In this game, Dissly brought in all four of his targets for 47 yards. Since Week 7, Dissly has begun to see a drastic increase in targets as he has averaged 6.2 per game during this span which is an increase compared to the 3.0 he saw per game during the first six games of the season. Over his past three games, Dissly has caught at least four passes in each game and averaged 11.6 PPR points per game. If Dissly can suit up this weekend, fantasy managers should view him as a low-end TE1 facing the Atlanta Falcons.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker had a big game on Monday Night Football in Week 12 against the Baltimore Ravens. He attempted five kicks and made all five of them, keeping the Chargers in the game while their offense was struggling to move the ball too far beyond midfield. Dicker made both of his extra point attempts and also made all three of his field goal tries. His field goal kicks were from 42, 52, and another 52 yards out. He remains one of the most consistent fantasy and real life kickers and should again be a top-10 option at the position in Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston had a rough performance in a Week 12 loss against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football. Johnston was targeted five times and came up with zero catches for zero yards. Several of the balls thrown his way were placed perfectly by quarterback Justin Herbert, but Johnston regressed to his rookie year drop issues, where passes thrown right at his chest in clearly open ground with no defenders nearby turn into incomplete passes. Johnston was expected to have a big game, as the Ravens defense has struggled all year against similar wide receivers, but QJ ended up with a zero. He's almost sure to do a little better in Week 13 when the Chargers take on the Atlanta Falcons.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly made four catches in a Week 12 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Playing on Monday Night Football, Dissly was targeted four times, making the four catches for 47 yards. The Chargers ended up only completing 21 passes in this one, so Dissly was pretty heavily involved despite only the four grabs. He's been a key part of the Bolts offense since the bye week and should continue in that role in Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons. He's a high-floor, low-ceiling type of tight end who is best rostered in 2TE leagues.
