WILL DISSLY NEWS

Outproduced by Conklin Dissly secured his only target for 18 yards during Los Angeles' 27-21 win over the Chiefs on Friday.

Impact Dissly played more offensive snaps (37) than Conklin (28), but he was outproduced in the receiving game. Dissly's lone target, which he turned into an 18-yard reception, came in the fourth quarter, while Conklin managed 50 yards on two targets, both of which he secured. Dissly and Conklin will again split reps at tight end in Week 2 on the road against Las Vegas on Monday night, but the Chargers' passing attack appears intent on funneling through starting wideouts Ladd McConkey, Keenan Allen and Quentin Johnston.

Finds end zone in preseason opener Dissly brought in both targets for 14 yards and a touchdown during the Chargers' 34-7 preseason win over the Lions in Thursday's Hall of Fame Game.

Impact The veteran tight end capped off the Chargers' first drive with a nifty five-yard touchdown grab on a perfect touch pass from Trey Lance. Dissly broke out in 2024 with a career-best 50-481-2 receiving line over 15 regular-season games, and he's slated to open the regular season with at least a share of the top tight end job again in 2025 despite the additions of Tyler Conklin and Oronde Gadsden via free agency and the draft, respectively.

Impact Dissly emerged as a consistent target for quarterback Justin Herbert in his inaugural season with the Chargers, setting new career-high marks across the board as a receiver. That said, the veteran tight end remained a fringe fantasy option in formats that start just one tight end, as he exceeded 50 yards in a game just twice during the 2024 season. Dissly remains under contract with Los Angeles for the next two years, though the team will have a potential 'out' to evaluate after the 2025 campaign.

Scores touchdown in Week 18 Dissly took the field for 43 of the Chargers' 75 snaps on offense and recorded five catches for 42 yards and a touchdown on six targets in Sunday's 34-20 win over the Raiders.

Impact Dissly found the end zone for the second time during the regular season and finished with 50 catches for 481 yards on 64 targets -- all career highs -- over his 15 games with the Chargers. He was one of four tight ends the Chargers kept active in Week 18, but Dissly's 57 percent snap share handily outpaced Tucker Fisk (35 percent), Stone Smartt (19 percent) and Hayden Hurst (eight percent). Expect Dissly to remain the Chargers' clear top tight end as the team kicks off postseason play Saturday in Houston.

Logs two receptions Dissly (shoulder) caught two passes for 21 yards on three targets against New England on Saturday.

Impact It's possible that Dissly was playing injured and was less than his 100 percent self, as fellow tight end Stone Smartt (two catches for 23 yards on two targets) had not previously matched Dissly's catch count in any game where the two of them were both active for the whole game. Dissly was originally signed by the Chargers to be a blocking specialist -- Dissly's productive season as a pass catcher was out of necessity due to a lack of alternatives -- but the more Smartt emerges, the more the Chargers might reduce Dissly's pass-catching volume in favor of more of the blocking tasks the Chargers originally had in mind for Dissly.

Active versus New England Dissly (shoulder) is listed as active for Saturday's game against the Patriots, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

Impact Dissly, who has missed the Chargers' last two contests, was listed as limited on Tuesday and Wednesday's practice reports, before upgrading to full participation Thursday and then being deemed questionable for Saturday's contest. In his return to action, Dissly will have an opportunity to reclaim his lead role in a Los Angeles tight end corps that also includes Stone Smartt and Tucker Fisk. In 13 games thus far, Dissly has logged a 43/418/1 receiving line on 55 targets, a pace that makes him a fantasy lineup consideration in deeper formats.

Deemed questionable for Saturday The Chargers list Dissly as questionable for Saturday's game against the Patriots.

Impact Dissly has missed the Chargers' last two contests, but he looks like he'll have a chance to play Saturday after he was able to resume practicing in a limited fashion this week. Official word on Dissly's status will arrive when Los Angeles posts its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Saturday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. In addition to Dissly, Hayden Hurst (illness) is also listed as questionable, so Stone Smartt and Tucker Fisk could be in store for elevated snaps at tight end if neither Dissly nor Hurst is able to play.

DECEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Stays limited in practice The Chargers listed Dissly (shoulder) as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.

Impact After missing the Chargers' last two games with the shoulder injury, Dissly has now gone down as a limited participant on both of the team's first two Week 17 injury reports. He may need to put in a full session Thursday in order to approach Saturday's game at New England without an injury designation.

Reps capped Tuesday Dissly (shoulder) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice.

Impact Dissly has missed the Chargers' last two games with the shoulder injury, but after not practicing in any fashion in Week 16, he seems to have made some progress to kick off Week 17 prep. The tight end will look to upgrade to full participation in practice by Thursday to clear the way for him to suit up Saturday at New England.

Won't play Week 16 Dissly (shoulder) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Broncos.

Impact Dissly will miss a second consecutive game due to this injury. Hayden Hurst (hip) is questionable and has a chance to return from IR, while Stone Smartt could be in line to maintain an elevated role in Dissly's absence. Dissly's next chance to take the field will be Dec. 28 against the Patriots.

Sits out practice Tuesday Dissly (shoulder) did not participate in practice Tuesday.

Impact Dissly was also tagged as DNP on Monday, though that was a walkthrough session. The tight end hurt his shoulder Week 14 against Kansas City and missed this past Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers. If he's out again Thursday, which is a likely scenario, Stone Smartt would likely be in line for another start, though Los Angeles could also be getting back Hayden Hurt (hip) this week. Hurst remains on IR, but he was designated to return Monday and logged a full practice Tuesday.

The tight end hurt his shoulder in Week 14 against Kansas City and missed this past Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers.

Estimated as DNP on Monday Dissly (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice reports.

Impact Dissly was injured in Week 14 against the Chiefs and missed this past Sunday's loss to the Bucs. He's viewed as "week-to-week," and now the Chargers have a short week ahead of a Thursday night game against the division-rival Broncos. With Dissly out versus Tampa Bay, Stone Smartt played 67 percent of the offensive snaps and posted a useful 5-50-0 receiving line on six targets, though he also lost a fumble.

Out for Week 15 Dissly (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucs.

Impact Dissly was injured last week against the Chiefs, but coach Jim Harbaugh said Friday that he doesn't envision Dissly needing to go to injured reserve, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports. With Dissly sidelined, Stone Smartt is expected to handle TE1 duties for the Chargers. Following Disney's injury versus Kansas City, Smartt was more involved in the pass game and finished with three catches for 54 yards on three targets.
