Joshua Palmer Not Practicing On Thursday

Joshua Palmer Not Practicing On Thursday

one year ago

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer (knee) was not seen on the practice field on Thursday after getting hurt in the Sunday night win over the Chicago Bears in Week 8. The good news is Palmer still has two more days to try and return to practice before the Chargers must release their final injury report for Week 9. The bad news is that if Palmer ultimately ends up as being questionable, he'll be an extremely risky flex play with the Chargers facing off against the New York Jets on Monday night this week. Rookie first-rounder Quentin Johnston would become much more intriguing as a deep-league flex option in Week 9 if Palmer is out or limited against the Jets. The 24-year-old Palmer has caught 15 of 26 targets for 294 yards and no touchdowns in four games since Mike Williams' (knee) season-ending injury.
