Ladd McConkey

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

McConkey was dealing with a foot injury for multiple weeks before suffering a concussion in the Chargers' last game Oct. 18. With the benefit of the team's Week 7 bye, he didn't endure any practice restrictions Wednesday and also ditched his previous foot issue. McConkey thus appears as if he only needs clearance from an independent neurologist in order to play Sunday against the Rams.

McConkey was knocked out of the Chargers' Oct. 18 loss to the Chiefs after sustaining a concussion but appears to have made some progress through the five-step protocol following the team's Week 7 bye. He was spotted practicing Monday during the Chargers' bonus session coming out of the bye week and looks on track to participate in at least a limited fashion Wednesday in the Chargers' first official practice of Week 8.

After a Week 7 bye, the Chargers held an unofficial practice Monday as they begin prepping for a road matchup with the Rams next Sunday. Though the team won't have to release its first Week 8 injury report Wednesday, McConkey appears poised to be listed as at least a limited practice participant, which suggests that he's made some progress through the five-step concussion protocol. The wideout will look to practice fully by the end of the week and receive clearance from an independent neurologist in order to play against the Rams.

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey ruled out with concussion vs. Chiefs

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey, in his first action since injuring his foot in Week 4, left Sunday's game early after suffering a concussion in the second quarter.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

McConkey was being evaluated for a possible head injury early in the second quarter before the Chargers quickly ruled him out. This follows a nearly three-week stretch in which he was dealing with a lingering foot issue that didn't allow him to log a snap in Week 4, despite being active. Now that he's subject to the concussion protocol, McConkey's next game action is up in the air.

Ladd McConkey — Active

Quentin Johnston (chest) has also been cleared to play, while Tre' Harris (hamstring) has been ruled out. Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh declined to comment on playing-time expectations for Sunday, simply telling reporters, "I don't know," and "we'll see how it goes," when asked about McConkey and Johnston on Friday, per Alex Insdorf of BoltBeat.com. McConkey has been the No. 1 target when available, but Justin Herbert may not have time to look downfield behind an injury-ravaged offensive line.

Ladd McConkey — Active

After being active but not playing in this past Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Broncos, McConkey is in a better spot on the health front in Week 6. He's participated on a limited basis in the Chargers' first two practices of the week, and if he can maintain that level of activity of upgrade to full Friday, McConkey could head into Sunday's game against the Chiefs without an injury designation. Much like the other core members of a struggling Chargers offense, McConkey has gotten off to an underwhelming start to 2026 with a 12-183-1 receiving line on 17 targets through his four appearances.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

Head coach Jim Harbaugh revealed earlier Wednesday that McConkey would get some work in, and he was officially marked down with a limited tag. It's too early to tell if McConkey will take the field in Week 6, but his participation in Wednesday's session bodes well for his chances of doing so.

Though he was technically active for this past Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Broncos, McConkey wasn't available after failing to practice in any fashion leading up to the contest. Now that he's poised to get back on the practice field Wednesday, McConkey should be in good position to reclaim his usual role as the team's No. 1 wideout this weekend in Kansas City, provided he has no setbacks in his recovery from the foot injury leading up to Sunday. McConkey's potential return is an important development while the Chargers contend with multiple injuries at receiver, as Tre' Harris (hamstring) exited the Week 5 loss early and Quentin Johnston (chest) and Brenen Thompson (quadriceps) were inactive for the game.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

Initially labeled as week-to-week by head coach Jim Harbaugh at the beginning of Week 5 prep, McConkey didn't practice in any fashion Wednesday through Friday but was still listed as questionable heading into Sunday. Though he ultimately suited up against Denver, McConkey looks to have been active only in an emergency since the Chargers had two other wideouts (Quentin Johnston and Brenen Thompson) sitting out with more worrisome injuries. The Chargers' depth was further tested when Tre' Harris (hamstring) left Sunday's game early, resulting in the team finishing with just three healthy receivers. McConkey's practice activity will bear watching this week to determine whether he has a more legitimate chance at playing meaningful snaps next Sunday in Kansas City.

Following an aggravation of a foot injury last Sunday at Seattle, McConkey was held out of drills during Week 5 prep but still entered the weekend listed as questionable to suit up. Adam Schefter of ESPN then reported Sunday morning that McConkey wasn't slated to play, and while the wide receiver actually is in uniform, he isn't expected to have a significant role, per Schefter. If that comes to pass, Tre' Harris likely will serve as the No. 1 WR for QB Justin Herbert, while Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Derius Davis and Theo Wease are the other players available at the position aside from McConkey.

McConkey aggravated a foot injury in the third quarter of last Sunday's loss at Seattle and didn't log any on-field work in the meantime, but the Chargers still gave him a chance to suit up in Week 5 by tagging him as questionable. Despite the listing, he's likely to be included among the team's inactives once the list is posted about 90 minutes before a 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. With fellow WRs Quentin Johnston (chest) and Brenen Thompson (quadriceps) already ruled out, Tre' Harris is expected to be L.A.'s top pass catcher Sunday, with Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Derius Davis and Theo Wease on hand for targets at the position.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

McConkey didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday and wasn't spotted by media at the start of Friday's session. The Chargers nonetheless are holding out hope he can play, potentially setting up a game-time decision ahead of a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday. Tre' Harris figures to play a lot of WR snaps for the Chargers even if McConkey is active, as the team's depth was depleted before the starters got injured.

With McConkey now missing practice throughout the week after coach Jim Harbaugh previously termed him week-to-week, it's looking like the wide receiver will miss Sunday's game against the Broncos. Look for Oronde Gadsden to see more action out of the slot for the Chargers, while Tre' Harris and Quentin Johnston (chest) continue to soak up the bulk of the wideout snaps.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

McConkey dealt with a foot injury last week before attempting to play through it this past Sunday in Seattle. He eventually exited for good in the third quarter and hasn't practiced since then. Coach Jim Harbaugh termed McConkey "week-to-week" Monday, according to Alex Insdorf of BoltBeat.com, so it won't be a surprise if he's ruled out on the Chargers' final Week 5 injury report Friday.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

McConkey attempted to play through a foot injury in Week 4, but when he exited this past Sunday's loss at Seattle in the third quarter, he had no catches among his two targets. Coach Jim Harbaugh told Alex Insdorf of BoltBeat.com on Monday that McConkey is "week-to-week," so his lack of activity to begin Week 5 prep lines up with that assessment. Friday's injury report ultimately may provide clarity on McConkey's status for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

Harbaugh didn't reveal what the extent of McConkey's participation might be, and it's possible that the wideout is limited to rehab work off to the side. McConkey has battled through a couple of injuries this season, the most recent being a foot issue that flared up in the third quarter of Sunday's loss to the Seahawks. The -0-4 Chargers have a critical game this weekend at home against the Broncos.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

McConkey suited up for Sunday's loss to the Seahawks despite dealing with a foot injury throughout the week, but he was forced from the game with the same issue, and Harbaugh's comment Monday indicates he could miss some time. Another report -- via Kris Rhim of ESPN.com -- indicates McConkey may be more "day-to-day" than "week-to-week," but one way or another more will be known about McConkey's status when the Chargers next release an official injury report Wednesday. Should McConkey wind up sidelined, Quentin Johnston and Tre' Harris would presumably be Justin Herbert's clear top two options at the wideout spots.

McConkey may have aggravated the foot issue he tended to in advance of this game, but in any case he had no catches (on two targets) at the point of his departure in the third quarter. With the third-year pro ruled out Sunday, Quentin Johnston, Tre' Harris, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Derius Davis represent the Chargers' healthy available wide receivers for the rest of Week 4 action.

McConkey had an interesting week, to say the least, which included sitting out Thursday's practice due to a foot injury and then being spotted with a visible limp afterward, according to Kris Rhim of ESPN.com. The third-year wide receiver sandwiched limited sessions around that absence, and after he entered the weekend as questionable for Week 4 action, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Sunday morning that McConkey was likely to play this weekend. Now that that's been confirmed, McConkey will look to build upon his 12-183-1 line on 15 targets in three contests to begin the campaign.

McConkey was limited at Wednesday's session due to a foot injury and then didn't practice at Thursday, after which he was seen exhibiting a limp, per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com. McConkey again was limited Friday before drawing a questionable tag for Week 4 action. The current health concern isn't considered as serious as the rib issue he dealt with earlier this season, per Rapoport, so he should be good for his usual No. 1 WR role in the Chargers offense Sunday, assuming he's active.

McConkey missed practice Thursday but returned for Friday's light session, giving him a chance to suit up versus Seattle. With the Chargers still looking for their first win, having McConkey available would give them significantly better odds of beating the Seahawks. Playing through injuries already to begin the season, McConkey has 12 catches for 183 yards and one touchdown on a disappointing 15 targets. He's a fantasy WR2/3 at less than 100 percent in a struggling offense.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

After failing to practice Thursday and being seen leaving the locker room with a limp, McConkey's presence Friday is a positive sign for his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Seahawks. It's been a disappointing season for the Los Angeles offenses as a whole, and that includes McConkey, who has already dealt with rib and foot issues four weeks into the campaign.

McConkey showed up on the Chargers' first Week 4 injury report Wednesday as limited due to a foot injury. His downgrade to DNP one day later was potentially an ominous sign of things to come, and the aforementioned limp adds fuel to the fire that he may be in danger of sitting out Sunday's game at Seattle. Ultimately, the team may clarify McConkey's status when it posts its final practice report of the week Friday.

Ladd McConkey — Questionable

McConkey opened Week 4 prep Wednesday as a limited participant, so his downgrade in activity a day later is somewhat concerning with regard to his status for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. The Chargers will see what, if anything, McConkey is able to do during their final practice of the week Friday before deciding whether he'll carry a designation into the weekend. If Los Angeles' top wideout ends up being sidelined Sunday, more opportunities in the passing game would open up for wideouts Quentin Johnston and Tre' Harris and tight end Oronde Gadsden.

McConkey had previously been managing a rib issue, but the wideout is tending to a new health concern this week that could threaten his availability for Sunday's game at Seattle. After the foot injury resulted in him being a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, McConkey looks like he'll take a step back in terms of activity Thursday. The Chargers could provide more clarity on the extent of McConkey's injury once Thursday's practice concludes.

McConkey previously dealt with a rib issue this season, but he's been able to suit up for all three contests en route to a 12-183-1 line on 15 targets. He'll have two more chances this week to get back to full participation, and Friday's practice report ultimately will unveil whether or not he enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game at Seattle.
