Los Angeles Chargers running back
J.K. Dobbins (knee) is officially questionable to be activated from Injured Reserve and play against the New England Patriots on Saturday. The former Baltimore Ravens' second-round pick has missed the last four games after suffering a knee injury but could return to action after logging two limited practices on Tuesday and Wednesday. However, he did not practice on Thursday, so he might be on the wrong side of questionable for Week 17.
Gus Edwards (ankle) won't play against the Patriots, so if Dobbins is also out, rookie
Kimani Vidal and veteran
Hassan Haskins will likely share touches. All Chargers' backs are risky fantasy options given all the uncertainty.

Los Angeles Chargers running back
Gus Edwards (ankle) did not practice on Thursday and has officially been ruled out of the game against the New England Patriots in Week 17. Edwards had his most productive game of the season last week against the Denver Broncos, posting 71 total yards and two touchdowns. Meanwhile,
J.K. Dobbins (knee), who has missed the last four games on Injured Reserve, is listed as questionable for Saturday's AFC showdown. If Dobbins is activated, he should be considered a risky RB2 option for the fantasy football season finale. If Dobbins can't go, rookie
Kimani Vidal and veteran
Hassan Haskins will likely share touches in L.A.'s backfield.

The Los Angeles Chargers defense had a tale of two halves in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football. In the first half, the Broncos looked like they were doing whatever they wanted and the Bolts were completely unable to stop them or slow them down. They allowed 21 points in the first half and looked on their way to another blowout like the previous week's 40-17 drubbing by the Bucs. Instead, they came out much different in the second half and allowed only six more points total. They didn't record any turnovers but got two sacks and ended up with 27 points allowed, all of which was good for a one-point fantasy performance in standard scoring leagues. That's certainly not great, but it's a whole lot better than it looked like things were going at halftime. The Bolts should fare better in Week 17 against the New England Patriots offense.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker
Cameron Dicker had an exciting and productive game in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos. Dicker made all four of his kicks, including an extremely rare fair catch free kick field goal from 57 yards out to end the first half. Dicker made both of his extra point tries, the 57-yarder, and added a 37-yard kick as well. The Bolts went for two on two of their touchdowns which limited Dicker's opportunities, but he was still nails every time he was called upon. He should remain one of the league's most consistent kickers in Week 17 as the Chargers will face the Patriots on Saturday.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Quentin Johnston played an insignificant role in a Thursday Night Football win over the Denver Broncos in Week 16. Johnston tied for the team lead with six targets but made just three catches for a total of 18 yards. The biggest play of the game for Johnston was a dropped pass when he was absolutely wide open and given a perfect pass from his quarterback
Justin Herbert. The same drop issues that plagued him throughout his rookie year clearly remain this season despite marked improvement in his overall game. He'll look to bounce back rather than have the ball bounce off his hands in Week 17 against the New England Patriots.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Derius Davis scored a key touchdown in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football. Davis appeared to be much more involved in this game, recording one carry and two targets, but shuffling around in the backfield several more times throughout the game. Davis scored his touchdown on a perfect 19-yard pass from
Justin Herbert in the fourth quarter. In total, he lost three yards on the ground with his one rush but gained 31 yards through the air with his two catches. Davis was an important part of the Chargers win but is unlikely to develop much fantasy value for the remainder of the season.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end
Stone Smartt made three catches on three targets in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football. Smartt got another start with
Will Dissly (shoulder) still unavailable. The Bolts did activate tight end
Hayden Hurst before this game, but Smartt was still the clear starter at the position. With his three catches, Smartt gained 37 yards with a long gain of 19. He's been a solid contributor since joining the starting lineup and should continue as a solid TE2 option as long as Dissly remains out.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Joshua Palmer made three catches in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos. Palmer tied for the team lead in targets with six, making his three catches for 41 yards. He also made an incredible catch to score on a two-point conversion in the fourth quarter. Palmer made some solid plays in this game and remains an important part of the Chargers offense on the field, but it just isn't translating to fantasy value. He and the Bolts will face the Patriots on Saturday in Week 17.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver
Ladd McConkey led the Chargers in catches again in a Week 16 win, making six catches on six targets for 87 yards. McConkey made some huge catches in this one and got some solid yardage after the catch as well. His long play was a 27-yard gain on his first target of the game. Quarterback
Justin Herbert ended up targeting 10 different pass catchers in this game, but McConkey still remained the clear first look on most plays. The Bolts spreading the ball around so much limits McConkey's counting stats, but he's still a solid WR2 with a high floor week in and week out.

Los Angeles Chargers running back
Hassan Haskins scored a touchdown in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football. Haskins did not record a rushing attempt, but he was targeted twice in the passing game, making two catches for a total of 39 yards. His touchdown came on a shovel pass from quarterback
Justin Herbert that turned into a 34-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. Haskins will continue playing an important role on the real life Chargers, but he's unlikely to do much in fantasy leagues despite his exciting play in this game.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back
Kimani Vidal ran the ball five times in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos, gaining 24 yards. He was not targeted in the passing game. Most of Vidal's yards in this game came on a big 19-yard run. He spent some time as the lead back while
Gus Edwards was tended to on the sidelines due to an injury, but when Edwards was healthy he was the clear lead back for the Bolts. That will likely continue next week when the Chargers face the Patriots on Saturday in Week 17.

Los Angeles Chargers running back
Gus Edwards scored two touchdowns in a Thursday Night Football win over the Denver Broncos. Edwards ran the ball 14 times for 68 yards and added one catch on two targets for three more yards. It was the best Edwards has looked in a long time, as he ripped off a huge 43-yard run that completely changed the game's momentum in the Chargers' favor. Edwards first touchdown came on a one-yard goal line plunge in the first quarter and his second was on a five-yard run in the third. He did miss some time in the middle of the game with an injury, but was able to come back and actually looked better after his return that before he went to the sideline. This was by far the best game of the season for Edwards, who will get some extra rest before facing the New England Patriots on Saturday in Week 17.
