  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Conklin (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. Conklin will be a healthy scratch for a third straight game. It seems like the tight end's time as a regular starter for the team is over, with rookie Oronde Gadsden taking over as the No. 1 and Will Dissly handling the remaining workload.

  Conklin (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday night's matchup with the Eagles, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

• Chargers' Tyler Conklin: One catch in win

  11/12/2025 • By RotoWire

  Conklin caught his lone target for 12 yards in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Steelers. Conklin's catch against the Steelers was his first since Week 5, as the veteran tight end has not been a big part of the Chargers' offensive plans since the emergence of teammate Oronde Gadsden (quadriceps). With Gadsden sidelined due to an injury suffered in the third quarter, Conklin saw an uptick in his snap share. The 30-year-old played 23 of the Chargers' 73 offensive snaps after failing to play a single offensive snap in Week 9. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Gadsden is considered day-to-day, so it appears the issue won't be long-term. If he does miss time, however, Conklin would be a candidate to operate as Los Angeles' top pass-catching tight end when the Chargers visit the Jaguars in Week 11.

• Chargers' Tyler Conklin: Snap count plummets vs. Miami

  10/14/2025 • By RotoWire

  Conklin did not register a target during the Chargers' 29-27 win over the Dolphins on Sunday. The veteran tight end's offensive snap count dropped significantly in Week 6, due in large part to the return of Will Dissly. Conklin saw just three snaps on offense, well behind rookie fifth-rounder Oronde Gadsden (48), Tucker Fisk (27) and Dissly (26). Sunday marked the third time this season that Conklin did not record a catch and the second time he didn't register a target. The 2018 fifth-rounder's fantasy production figures to remain low unless Dissly or Gradsden were to miss time due to injury, illness or suspension.

• Chargers' Tyler Conklin: Two catches in loss

  10/07/2025 • By RotoWire

  Conklin caught two of his three targets for 30 yards in the 27-10 loss to the Commanders on Sunday. Conklin played dramatically fewer snaps (20) than rookie Oronde Gadsden (34), but Conklin at least capitalized on the few looks which went his way. The Chargers are dealing with numerous injuries to the offensive line, which is forcing the tight ends to block more than they typically do. The issue, which won't be resolved in the near future, is impacting the fantasy value of the entire position group.
