Joshua Palmer Getting Close To A Return

Joshua Palmer Getting Close To A Return

12 months ago

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer (knee) was listed as a full-go on Monday's estimated practice report. The Chargers opened the 21-day practice window for Palmer to be activated off Injured Reserve last Wednesday, and there's a chance that they officially activate him before Thursday's contest versus the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders if he looks good on Tuesday. The 24-year-old should resume his role as the No. 2 receiver in LA's offense behind target hog Keenan Allen when he returns, which has made him a popular stash candidate in fantasy leagues. However, the injury to quarterback Justin Herbert (fractured index finger) that could keep him out for the final four games of the year, means that Palmer probably isn't going to have much upside when he returns if he's taking passes from backup Easton Stick.
