Austin Ekeler, Joshua Palmer Will Play Against Atlanta
2 years agoLos Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (abdomen) and wide receiver Joshua Palmer (concussion) will both play in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons. Ekeler popped up on this week's injury report, but the Chargers were just being cautious with him and he shouldn't have any restrictions this weekend. He heads into Week 9 as the overall RB2 in half-point PPR leagues, so Ekeler is an absolute must-start against the Falcons on Sunday. Palmer missed Week 7 due to a concussion but had the bye to recover last week. He has cleared the league's concussion protocol and will serve as the team's No. 1 wideout with Keenan Allen (hamstring) out again and Mike Williams (ankle) on Injured Reserve.
