Chargers looking to 'simplify' offense
Key Points:
- The Los Angeles Chargers plan to simplify their offense after players struggled with the complex pre-snap motion system, as acknowledged by head coach Jim Harbaugh following their Week 6 loss to the Chiefs.
- Justin Herbert continues to struggle, facing heavy defensive pressure and lacking key wide receivers, leading to poor fantasy football outlooks; meanwhile, wide receiver Ladd McConkey's injury status remains uncertain but he may see limited action.
- The New Orleans Saints are cautiously managing Jordyn Tyson’s hamstring recovery, with Bryce Lance stepping up as the primary wide receiver behind Chris Olave during Tyson’s absence.
- The Indianapolis Colts signed veteran punter Thomas Morstead to their practice squad as insurance after their current punter, Rigoberto Sanchez, was injured in Week 6.
- Several notable players are dealing with injuries and limited practice participation this week, including Patriots CB Carlton Davis (neck), Rams TE Terrance Ferguson (ankle), Browns RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle), and Titans WR A.J. Brown (ankle), affecting their availability and fantasy value.
