• Chargers' Alex Erickson: Two more catches in loss

  01/09/2024 • By RotoWire

  Erickson caught two of his five targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Chiefs. The 31-year-old joined the active roster Week 11 and, after injuries to Joshua Palmer (knee) and Keenan Allen (heel), somewhat miraculously emerged as the team's top target. finishing with 16 receptions for 232 yards, both of them higher figures than his past three seasons combined. It's safe to say the veteran wideout won't be a highly sought-after free agent despite the positive small sample size, but it's possible Erickson could at least make a preseason roster given his special teams acumen.

  If the Chargers are again without Keenan Allen (heel) and Josh Palmer (concussion) then look at Erickson as a flier in deeper leagues. In Week 17 at Denver with Allen and Palmer out, Erickson had seven catches for 98 yards on eight targets. He appears to have a good connection with Easton Stick, and Erickson could be a useful option in Week 18 against the Chiefs if Allen and Palmer are out again.

  Erickson made seven receptions on eight targets for 98 yards in Sunday's 16-9 loss to the Broncos. A slew of injuries to the Chargers' receiving corps opened the door for Erickson to secure a bigger role on offense in recent weeks. The undrafted Wisconsin product took full advantage of that opportunity Sunday, when he finished as his team's leading receiver across the board. The Chargers aren't getting healthier anytime soon, so Erickson should have another opportunity to put his skills on display against the Chiefs in Week 18.

  Erickson caught both of his targets for 31 yards in the 24-22 loss to the Bills on Saturday. It appears as if Erickson has overtaken Jalen Guyton as the team's No. 4 wideout, a role that has seen more work in the two-game absence of Keenan Allen (heel). Despite the increase in playing time, the 31-year-old did very little, tallying just his seventh total catch this season.

  The Chargers signed Erickson to their active roster Saturday. Erickson is joining Los Angeles' active roster for the third consecutive week.
