Chargers clinch playoff spot in Jim Harbaugh's 1st season with 40-7 rout of Patriots
Picks up heel injury Palmer exited Saturday's game at New England due to a heel injury.
Impact At the time he was deemed questionable to return in the third quarter Saturday, Palmer had hauled in four of six targets for 41 yards. As long as Palmer is sidelined, DJ Chark and Derius Davis will be the tertiary options at wide receiver for the Chargers behind Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston.

Scores on conversion pass in win Palmer secured three of six targets for 41 yards and caught a two-point conversion pass in the Chargers' 34-27 win over the Broncos on Thursday night.
Impact The veteran wideout was second to Ladd McConkey in both receptions and receiving yards while tying for the team lead in targets. Palmer's two-point conversion grab was also important, as it gave the Chargers a three-point lead early in the fourth quarter following a Derius Davis go-ahead 19-yard touchdown grab. Palmer remains a clear complementary option in Los Angeles' passing attack that's yet to surpass 78 receiving yards in any game, but he could see some additional opportunities in a Week 17 road clash against the Patriots on Saturday, Dec. 28 if New England's standout cornerback Christian Gonzalez spends the majority of his time on McConkey.

Minimal production in loss Palmer caught two of three targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 40-17 loss to the Buccaneers.
Impact After serving as the Chargers' top target in Week 14, Palmer reverted back to his smaller role with the return of rookie receiver Ladd McConkey to the lineup. The veteran played 75 percent of the Chargers' offensive snaps, but he was unable to produce much with his few opportunities. Despite a solid share in playing time, Palmer is unlikely to be a trustworthy option for fantasy purposes in the fantasy playoffs. Los Angeles will host the Broncos in Week 16.

Chargers have improved under Jim Harbaugh but are still struggling in close games

Jim Harbaugh has brought toughness to the Los Angeles Chargers
DECEMBER 10, 2024 • Associated Press
Emerges as top target Palmer caught six of his nine targets for 78 yards in the 19-17 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.
Impact With Ladd McConkey (knee/shoulder) out, Palmer took over as the team's top option, although quarterback Justin Herbert did spread the ball around to eight separate targets in the contest. Palmer had been held to just 11 receptions for 243 yards in the last six games combined, so the evidence seems pretty clear the fourth-year wideout's significant bump ties directly to McConkey's status. That will be something to monitor next week given the Chargers take on the porous Cincinnati defense in what could be an offensive explosion.
DECEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
One catch against Atlanta Palmer caught his lone target for 11 yards in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Falcons.
Impact Palmer had a quiet day against the Falcons, as his 11 receiving yards accounted for his lowest total in a contest this season. The veteran wideout played 63 percent of the Chargers offensive snaps Sunday, his lowest snap since Week 10. Through 11 games, Palmer has recorded just 24 catches for 414 yards and one touchdown in what has been an underwhelming 2024 campaign for the fourth-year receiver. The 25-year-old will be remain difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as the Chargers head into a Week 14 matchup against the Raiders.
DECEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Struggles with eight targets Palmer finished with three receptions (eight targets) for 38 yards in Monday's 30-23 loss to Baltimore.
Impact Palmer led the Chargers in targets, but the wideout finished just third in receptions and yardage Monday. It was actually the 24-year-old's best output since Week 9, highlighting the underwhelming nature of his performance in 2024. Palmer should only be considered a deep-league option in Week 13 in a road matchup against Atlanta.
NOVEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Hardly involved in passing game Palmer caught two of his four targets for 23 yards in the 34-27 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Impact It appears as if both Ladd McConkey (6-9-123) and Quentin Johnston (six touchdowns this season) have surpassed Palmer, who was once presumed to be the team's defacto No. 1 to begin the year. The 2021 third-round pick has yet to surpass more than five targets in a game, but he's at least seen four or more targets in all but three contests this season. That low volume could change next week as the Chargers try to keep pace with the Ravens.
NOVEMBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Only one catch Palmer tallied 36 yards on his one reception (two targets) in the 27-17 win over the Titans on Sunday.
Impact The Chargers once again finished with more rushing attempts (39) than pass attempts (18) limiting any sort of volume Palmer might have been able to compile. It's a feast or famine fantasy system in Los Angeles dependent on wide receivers scoring touchdowns. It's possible there will be more passing volume against the porous Bengals defense next week.
NOVEMBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Strong production on two targets Palmer brought in two of four targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in the Chargers' 27-10 win over the Browns on Sunday.
Impact Palmer made good use of his pair of grabs, recording a 28-yard touchdown grab in the first quarter and adding a 26-yard catch on the final drive of the first half. Palmer was also credited with an additional nine receiving yards on an end-of-half lateral, leading to his third straight game with 60-plus receiving yards. Palmer has yet to see more than five targets in any game this season, however, so he remains a somewhat risky option dependent on efficiency heading into a Week 10 home matchup against the Titans.

Continues upward trajectory Palmer caught two of four targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 26-8 win over the Saints.
Impact Palmer didn't see significant volume but made the most of his limited touches with catches of 27 and 45 yards. He has increased his receiving yardage total in all six of his appearances this season, with a jump from 38 yards in Week 6 to 63 in Week 7 preceding Sunday's season-best effort, but Palmer has yet to score a touchdown this season. Palmer will look to snap that touchdown drought in Week 9 against the Browns.

Joshua Palmer on What Bolts Can Learn From Loss vs. Cardinals Wide receiver Joshua Palmer speaks to the media following the Chargers matchup with the Arizona Cardinals.
OCTOBER 22, 2024 • CHARGERS.COM
Solid but unspectacular in loss Palmer secured four of five targets for 63 yards in the Chargers' 17-15 loss to the Cardinals on Monday night.
Impact Palmer was expected to see a larger role with the absence of No. 2 receiver Quentin Johnston (ankle), but he saw only a slight bump in targets. The extra involvement was enough to allow Palmer to set season highs across the board, yet he was only third in catches and fourth in targets, with tight end Will Dissly surprisingly setting the pace across the board for the Chargers' pass catchers. Palmer next takes aim at the Saints in a Week 8 home matchup, a game that Johnston could also potentially sit out.
OCTOBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Not involved much in win Palmer caught two of his three targets for 38 yards in the 23-17 win over the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact Simi Fehoko, Quentin Johnston and Ladd McConkey all saw more targets than Palmer, but the 25-year-old did play the second-most snaps of any Chargers wideout. The offense just doesn't pass the ball often enough to have more than one target be a consistent fantasy factor, and right now Palmer is no better than third on the target chart week to week.
OCTOBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Four catches in return Palmer recorded three receptions on four targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Chiefs.
Impact Palmer returned from a one-game absence caused by an elbow and calf issue. He finished tied for third on the team in targets -- behind Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston -- and did the majority of his damage on a 26-yard reception late in the third quarter. While it wasn't a particularly impressive performance, it was Palmer's highest yardage total in a game this season.
