Will Dissly Injury History & Analysis

The Chargers are signing TE Tyler Conklin to a one-year deal. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports that it carries a $3 million base value, with a max of $4.5 million. Conklin spent the past three years with the Jets after beginning his career with four seasons in Minnesota.

Chargers TE Will Dissly (shoulder) is active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He’s been out since Week 14 but had been operating as Los Angeles’ lead TE, averaging 5.4 targets, 4.0 catches, and 39 yards over his last eight healthy games. We’re expecting Dissly to step back in as the starter today, but he’d be a shaky TE1 play in season-long leagues. TE Hayden Hurst (illness) is inactive.

Chargers TE Will Dissly (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game vs. the Patriots. He was a full participant in Thursday's practice, though, which should have him on track to play. Dissly has been out since Week 14. He had emerged as the Chargers' lead TE before the shoulder injury, averaging 5.4 targets, 4.0 catches, and 39 yards over his last eight healthy games. Dissly figures to resume lead duties against New England but would be tough to trust as a TE1 in fantasy lineups.

Chargers TE Will Dissly (shoulder) is out for Thursday night's game vs. the Broncos. He remained sidelined in practice all week, so consider him iffy for Week 17. TE Hayden Hurst (hip) is listed as questionable after being designated to return from IR earlier this week. He's not a Week 16 fantasy option, but his return would make TE Stone Smartt a riskier fantasy play. We'll get the Chargers' inactives a little before 7 pm ET tomorrow.
