Agrees to three-year deal in Buffalo Palmer agreed Monday to a three-year contract with the Bills, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact The initial report has it as a three-year, $36 million deal with half the money guaranteed. A 2021 third-round pick, Palmer never had more than 769 receiving yards or four TDs in a season for the Chargers, but he capably handled different roles under three offensive coordinators. In 2022, he had a 72-769-3 receiving line on 107 targets at an 8.7 aDOT. In 2024, he had a 39-584-1 receiving line on 65 targets at a 15.2 aDOT. The Bills need a downfield presence more so than another possession receiver, but it's nonetheless tough to predict exactly how they'll use Palmer, apart from the size of his contract suggesting he's expected to be a starter and play a lot of snaps. Then again, we said the same thing when they signed Curtis Samuel to a three-year, $24 million deal last offseason. Palmer at least is much younger than Samuel, turning 26 in September, and there's been no indication that Palmer's foot injury from late in the 2024 campaign will be an issue for 2025.

Unable to live up to expectations Palmer (foot) logged 39 catches (65 targets) for 584 yards and one touchdown across 15 regular-season appearances with the Chargers in 2024.

Impact Palmer entered the 2024 campaign seemingly staring down tremendous opportunity, with the Chargers having moved on from wideouts Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, but he ultimately took a backseat to both 2024 second-rounder Ladd McConkey and 2023 first-round pick Quentin Johnston. Despite suiting up for five more games in 2024, Palmer's production totaled remained similar to the 38-581-2 receiving line he put up across 10 appearances in 2023. After missing Los Angeles' regular-season finale and wild-card round loss to the Texans, Palmer will now work to fully recover from his foot injury in time for the start of free agency.

Won't play Saturday Palmer (foot) has been ruled out for Saturday's wild-card game against the Texans.

Impact Palmer, who was unable to practice this week, will thus target a potential return to action in the divisional round of the playoffs, should the Chargers advance. In his absence, wideouts DJ Chark and Derius Davis are candidates to see added snaps alongside Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston (thigh/illness), provided Johnston is available after being deemed questionable for Saturday's contest.

Can Jim Harbaugh save the Chargers from their miserable playoff history?

Still not practicing Palmer (foot) wasn't spotted at practice Wednesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact Palmer was listed as a non-participant Tuesday as well, so what, if anything, the wideout is able to do Thursday will provide key context rewarding his chances of playing in Saturday's playoff opener against the Texans. If Palmer -- who was inactive in Week 18 -- remains out this weekend, DJ Chark and Derius Davis would be in line to see added snaps alongside fellow WRs Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston.

Set to miss practice Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said Palmer (foot) isn't in line to practice Tuesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact After exiting the Chargers' Week 17 win over the Patriots with the foot injury, Palmer didn't practice in any fashion last week before sitting out the Chargers' 34-20 win over the Raiders in the regular-season finale. He's yet to take any tangible steps forward in his recovery from the injury as the Chargers begin prepping for Saturday's wild-card game in Houston, but Palmer will still have two more opportunities to get in some on-field work before the team decides whether he'll take a designation into the weekend. In Palmer's absence in Week 18, DJ Chark stepped in as the Chargers' No. 3 wideout and finished with a six-yard touchdown reception across three targets.

Ruled out for Sunday Palmer (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's regular season finale against the Raiders.

Impact Palmer didn't practice this week and will target a potential return to action in next weekend's playoff opener against an opponent to be determined. In his absence Sunday, DJ Chark and Derius Davis are candidates to log added snaps behind top wideout options Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston.

Sidelined for practice again Palmer (foot) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Palmer has been a spectator for both of the Chargers' first two Week 18 practices, so he'll likely need to take part in Friday's session in some fashion in order to avoid a designation for Sunday's regular-season finale in Las Vegas. If Palmer is sidelined for Week 18, DJ Chark and Derius Davis could both be in store for expanded roles at receiver.

Not practicing Palmer (heel) didn't practice Wednesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact Palmer left Saturday's win over New England in the third quarter and was spotted in a walking boot after the game. It's not yet clear how aggressive the Chargers will or won't be this Sunday against the Raiders; they know they'll be either the fifth or sixth seed in the AFC, with hope for moving up to No. 5 depending on Pittsburgh losing to Cincinnati on Sunday. It's unclear, in any case, if Palmer will be healthy enough to play.

Needs walking boot Palmer (heel) was donning a walking boot in the locker room following Saturday's 40-7 win at New England, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Chargers may just be exercising caution with Palmer after he was forced out of Week 17 action late in the third quarter. He finished Saturday's game with four catches (on six targets) for 41 yards, which marked the third time in the last four contests that he surpassed 40 yards.
