McConkey (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice estimate. McConkey was on the field for 73 percent of the Chargers' snaps on offense during the team's Week 11 win over the Bengals en route to catching six of his nine targets for 123 yards. However, now that he's listed as having a shoulder issue, the wideout's status is worth tracking as Monday night's game against the Ravens approaches. Look for added context regarding McConkey's Week 12 playing prospects to arrive via his participation level in Friday's practice.

McConkey (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice estimate. McConkey was on the field for 73 percent of the Chargers' snaps on offense during the team's Week 11 win over the Bengals en route to catching six of his nine targets for 123 yards. However, now that he's listed as having a shoulder issue, the wideout's status is worth tracking as Monday night's game against the Ravens approaches. Look for added context regarding McConkey's Week 12 playing prospects to arrive via his participation level in Friday's practice.
McConkey caught six of his nine targets for 123 yards in the 34-27 win over the Bengals on Sunday. McConkey was briefly in the locker room due to an apparent shoulder injury in the first half, but the rookie returned relatively shortly thereafter. Justin Herbert found the Georgia product twice on the final drive of the game, as McConkey tallied receptions of 28 and 27 yards to help put the team in field-goal range before J.K. Dobbins punctuated the win with a long touchdown run. This is now the eighth time this season McConkey has led all Chargers receivers in targets as he continues to emerge as Herbert's go-to target. Expect the 23-year-old to be poised with more opportunities next week against a susceptible Ravens pass defense.
McConkey (shoulder) returned to Sunday's game against the Bengals, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports. McConkey went to the locker room after landing hard on his shoulder in the first half, but he managed to return to the game after a few minutes. He caught his only target for 20 yards prior to the injury scare.
McConkey (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bengals. McConkey got up favoring his shoulder after landing hard at the end of a 20-yard catch in the first quarter. That was the rookie's only target prior to the injury. The Chargers' other active wide receivers Sunday night are Quentin Johnston, Joshua Palmer, Jalen Reagor and Derius Davis.
McConkey caught both of his targets for 52 yards in the 27-17 win over the Titans on Sunday. McConkey had the team's most explosive play of the afternoon, a nice 18-yard out route deep in enemy territory that the rookie then jettisoned for nearly another 20 yards. The reception was a part of a 95-yard touchdown drive early in the fourth quarter that effectively iced the game. The 22-year-old has typically been the go-to wide receiver for the offense, but in a game where Justin Herbert attempted just 18 passes there was never going to be a ton of volume to prop up a massive fantasy day. That should change in Week 11 when the porous Bengals defense comes to Los Angeles.
McConkey secured five of seven targets for 64 yards in the Chargers' 27-10 win over the Browns on Sunday. McConkey set the pace in receptions and targets for the Chargers while checking in second in receiving yards to Quentin Johnston. The rookie has shown consistently improving chemistry with Justin Herbert, now having recorded at least five receptions in four of the last five contests. McConkey next takes aim at the Titans in a Week 10 home matchup.
McConkey (hip) practiced fully Thursday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports. The same goes for Quentin Johnston (ankle), which sets the stage for the Chargers to have their top three wideouts (McConkey, Johnston and Joshua Palmer) available Sunday against the Browns. It also looks like DJ Chark (groin, IR) is trending toward returning to action this weekend, but in any case McConkey should maintain steady enough volume going forward to yield weekly fantasy lineup utility.
McConkey (hip) was limited at practice Wednesday. McConkey continues to manage a hip issue, but with no reported setbacks in this past Sunday's win over the Saints, a game in which he caught all six of his targets for 111 yards and two touchdowns, his listed limitations Wednesday are likely maintenance-related. McConkey now has two more chances to upgrade his practice participation (and in turn avoid a Week 9 injury designation) ahead of this weekend's game against the Browns.
McConkey (hip) caught all six of his targets for 111 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 26-8 win over the Saints. McConkey was questionable heading into the game due to a hip injury, but the rookie didn't seem hampered at all physically in a breakout performance that included a 60-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter and a nine-yard touchdown in the fourth. His two touchdown catches in this one matched McConkey's total from his first six NFL games, and the second-round pick out of Georgia has seen at least six targets in all but one game in what has been a promising start to his career. McConkey will look to build on this standout effort when the Chargers travel to Cleveland in Week 9.
