LOS ANGELES CHARGERS NEWS

Joey Bosa - Unlikely to play vs. Arizona Bosa (hip) is listed as doubtful ahead of Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Impact Bosa has been bogged down with a hip injury since Week 3 against the Steelers, and it appears the 2016 first-round pick will miss his third straight game as a result. If Bosa is indeed inactive, expect Bud Dupree and Tuli Tuipulotu to see more snaps with the first-team defense Monday opposite starting edge rusher Khalil Mack.

2024 NFL odds Week 7: Lines, spreads for all 15 games

NFL Week 7 is almost here. Check out the odds for all 15 matchups!

OCTOBER 19

Zion Johnson - Good to go vs. Cardinals Johnson (ankle) was a full participant in Friday's practice.

Impact Johnson popped up on the Chargers' injury report Thursday due to an ankle injury he likely sustained in Week 6 against the Broncos. It doesn't appear to be a major issue as the 2022 first-round pick was able to practice in full Friday, and barring any setbacks, he should start at right guard Monday against the Cardinals.

OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Deane Leonard - In jeopardy of missing Week 7 Leonard (hamstring) was listed as a DNP on the Chargers' injury report Friday.

Impact Leonard has logged back-to-back DNPs this week due to a hamstring injury he suffered in Week 6 against the Broncos. He's at risk of missing his second regular-season game of the year unless he's able to practice in at least a limited capacity Saturday. Leonard has primarily operated on special teams and has logged four tackles (three solo) and one pass breakup across four regular-season games.

OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Kristian Fulton - DNP on Friday Fulton (hamstring) did not practice Friday.

Impact Fulton injured his hamstring during the Chargers' Week 6 win over the Broncos. He has yet to practice since the injury, and unless he's able to participate in some capacity Saturday, he's in jeopardy of being ruled out ahead of Monday's game against Arizona. Backup corner Deane Leonard (hamstring) and nickel corner Ja'Sir Taylor (leg) are both dealing with injuries ahead of Monday's game, and a vulnerable Chargers' secondary could open up the field for quarterback Kyler Murray and the Cardinals' passing attack.

OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Joey Bosa - Doesn't practice Friday Bosa (hip) was listed as a DNP on Friday's injury report.

Impact Bosa has opened the week with back-to-back DNPs due to a hip injury he sustained in Week 3 against the Steelers. The 2016 first-round pick is in jeopardy of being sidelined for a third straight game unless he's able to practice in at least a limited capacity Saturday. If Bosa cannot play Monday against the Cardinals, Tuli Tuipulotu and Bud Dupree will compete for snaps with the first-team defense at outside linebacker opposite starter Khalil Mack.

Ja'Sir Taylor - Limited Friday Taylor (leg) was a limited participant in Friday's practice.

Impact Taylor has now logged back-to-back limited sessions to begin the Chargers' week of practice, which suggests he may be nearing a return to the field. The third-year pro has missed the Chargers' last two games due to this knee injury, and his participation in Saturday's practice will likely be the best indication of whether he can play in Monday night's matchup against the Cardinals.

OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

DJ Chark Jr. - Limited practice Friday Chark (groin) was limited at practice Friday

Impact The Chargers opened up Chark's 21-day practice window Wednesday, but it remains to be seen if he'll be activated from IR ahead of Monday night's game against the Cardinals. Once he returns to the mix, Chark will have an opportunity to claim a role in a wideout corps currently led by Ladd McConkey (hip), Quentin Johnston (ankle) and Joshua Palmer.

OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Ladd McConkey - Limited practice Friday McConkey (hip) was limited at practice Friday.

Impact McConkey was listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate, a level of participation he maintained a day later. McConkey thus has one more chance to upgrade to full participation, and in turn avoid an injury designation ahead of Monday night's game against the Cardinals. With a 19/219/2 receiving line on 32 targets through five games to date, McConkey has carved out a degree of fantasy utility in his first season as pro, thanks to his steady involvement in the Chargers' passing game.

OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Simi Fehoko - Full practice Friday Fehoko (shoulder/groin) practiced fully Friday.

Impact Fehoko was estimated as a limited participant on Thursday's practice report, but his full participation in Friday's session paves the way for him to suit up Monday night against the Cardinals. Fehoko has just three catches on seven targets for 61 yards in five games to date, but two of those catches (for 44 yards) occurred in the Chargers' win over the Broncos in Week 6, when Fehoko saw a season-high 51 percent snap share. Ultimately, his Week 7 fantasy upside hinges on the availability of fellow WRs Quentin Johnston (ankle, DNP on Friday) and Ladd McConkey (hip, LP on Friday).

OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Will Dissly - Logs full practice Friday Dissly (shoulder) practiced fully Friday.

Impact After being listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate, Dissly worked fully a day later, which sets the stage for him to suit up Monday night against the Cardinals. With fellow TE Hayden Hurst (groin) logging another 'DNP' listing Friday, Dissly -- who has recorded a 13/111/0 receiving line on 15 targets in five contests -- could be in line to see a modest uptick in Week 7 opportunities if Hurst ends up unavailable versus Arizona.

OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Quentin Johnston - Doesn't practice Friday Johnston (ankle) didn't practice Friday.

Impact After being listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice estimate, Johnston didn't work in Friday's session, which sets the stage for what (if anything) he does Saturday to be pivotal with regard to his chances of suiting up Monday night against the Cardinals. In five games to date, Johnston has caught 14 of his 22 targets for 164 yards, though the wideout has helped the fantasy prospects of those who roster him by catching three TDs in that span.

OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Hayden Hurst - Remains absent from practice Friday Hurst (groin) wasn't spotted at practice Friday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact Hurst is set to log a second straight DNP after exiting in the first half of the Chargers' Week 6 win over the Broncos due to a groin injury. He'll have one more chance to practice in some capacity Saturday, but Hurts is fighting an uphill battle to gain clearance for Monday's game against the Cardinals. If Hurst is unavailable, Eric Tomlinson and Stone Smartt could see additional playing time alongside Will Dissly (shoulder).

OCTOBER 17 • DATA SKRIVE

Simi Fehoko - Nursing shoulder injury Fehoko (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice session.

Impact Fehoko played a season-high 37 snaps in Week 6 against the Broncos and finished the game with two catches (on four targets) for 44 yards. However, it appears the 2021 fifth-round pick may have picked up a shoulder injury during the contest, which limited him in practice Thursday. Fehoko will have two more chances to increase his practice participation ahead of Monday's game against the Cardinals.

OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Hayden Hurst - Doesn't practice Thursday Hurst (groin) was listed as a DNP on the Chargers' injury report Thursday.

Impact Hurst left in the first half of the Chargers' Week 6 win over the Broncos due to a groin injury. He will have two more opportunities to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Monday's game against Arizona. Through the first five games of the regular season, Hurst has caught six passes (on 10 targets) for 59 yards.

OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Joey Bosa - Opens week as DNP Bosa (hip) did not practice Thursday.

Impact Bosa has missed the Chargers' last two games due to a hip injury. He'll have two more chances to return to the practice field in at least a limited capacity ahead of Monday's game against the Cardinals. Tuli Tuipulotu and Bud Dupree will continue to see more reps at outside linebacker opposite Khalil Mack for as long as Bosa is sidelined.

OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Will Dissly - Logs limited practice Dissly (shoulder) was limited at practice Thursday.

Impact Dissly now has two more chances to upgrade his practice participation ahead of Monday night's contest against the Cardinals. Meanwhile, fellow TE Hayden Hurst (groin) didn't practice Thursday, and if he's unavailable versus Arizona, Dissly (assuming he plays) would be in line to see added Week 7 opportunities.

OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Ladd McConkey - Limited by hip injury McConkey (hip) was limited at practice Thursday.

Impact McConkey, who caught four of his eight targets for 43 yards in this past Sunday's 23-16 win over the Broncos, is one of three Chargers' WRs on the team's Week 7 injury report. In addition to McConkey, Quentin Johnston (ankle) missed Thursday's practice, while Simi Fehoko (shoulder/groin) was limited. The trio's status is thus worth tracking as Monday night's game against the Cardinals approaches.

OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Quentin Johnston - Misses practice Thursday Johnston (ankle) didn't practice Thursday.

Impact Johnston exited this past weekend's win over the Broncos after suffering an ankle injury, and though he was able to return to the contest, the wideout's absence from Thursday's practice makes his status worth monitoring ahead of Monday night's game against the Cardinals. Meanwhile, fellow WRs Ladd McConkey (hip) and Simi Fehoko shoulder/groin) are also on the Chargers' Week 7 injury report after logging limited sessions Thursday.
