Ladd McConkey Still Holds WR1 Upside Despite Rushing Attack
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey continued his hot streak, catching six of 10 targets for 88 yards and a touchdown against the Minnesota Vikings last Thursday, leading the team in all major receiving categories. He ranks fifth in the league in targets and carries a solid 23.3% target share. He faces a middle-of-the-pack Tennessee Titans pass defense, but McConkey's outlook is boosted by an especially favorable slot matchup against defensive back Roger McCreary, who is allowing an 85.7% catch rate to opponents. While the overall passing volume might be limited due to a run-heavy game script, McConkey's high volume and favorable individual matchup keep his floor high. RotoBaller ranks him at WR13 this week. You can start him with confidence as a high-end WR2, with WR1 upside if he finds the endzone again.
