Chargers' Hayden Hurst: Grabs one catch in return
Hayden Hurst caught his only target for eight yards in Thursday's 34-27 Week 16 win over Denver.Hurst suited up for the first time since Week 10 after missing five games due to a hip injury. He logged eight offensive snaps for Los Angeles, much fewer than fellow tight ends Stone Smartt (39 offensive snaps) and Tucker Fisk (28). Hurst's snap share could become more aligned to that of Smartt and Fisk as the former further distances himself from the hip issue, though Will Dissly figures to regain his role as the starter at the position once he's ready to return from a shoulder injury.

Chargers' Hayden Hurst: Back in action Thursday
Hayden Hurst (hip) is listed as active for Thursday night's game against the Broncos, Eric Smith of the Los Angeles Chargers' official site reports.Hurst, who had been sidelined since Week 10, was activated from IR ahead of the contest, and in his return to action he'll provide added depth to a tight end corps that will be without Will Dissly (shoulder). In that context, Hurst has an opportunity to get back into the Chargers' passing game mix in short order while working in tandem with fellow TE Stone Smartt, who logged five catches for 50 yards last weekend in Dissly's absence. With a possible timeshare looming, Hurst profiles as a speculative Week 16 fantasy lineup option.

Chargers' Hayden Hurst: Activated from IR
Hayden Hurst (hip) has been activated from IR ahead of Thursday night's game against the Broncos.Hurst, who last saw game action Week 10, still carries a questionable designation for the contest, but he's on track to bolster a Los Angeles Chargers' tight end corps that will be without Will Dissly, who's still sidelined with a shoulder injury. Hurst thus should have an opportunity to get right back into the mix Thursday while working alongside fellow TE Stone Smartt, who caught five passes for 50 yards in Week 15 in Dissly's absence.

Chargers' Hayden Hurst: On track to be activated
The Los Angeles Chargers plan to activate Hayden Hurst (hip) from IR ahead of Thursday night's game against the Broncos, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.Hurst last saw game action in Week 10, but his looming return to the mix arrives at an opportune time, with fellow tight end Will Dissly still sidelined with a shoulder injury. With that in mind, Hurst should have an opportunity to contribute as pass catcher Thursday while working alongside Stone Smartt, who caught five passes for 50 yards in Week 15 with Dissly inactive.

Chargers' Hayden Hurst: Questionable after full practices
Hayden Hurst (hip) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Broncos.Hurst practiced without limitations Tuesday and Wednesday after being designated to return from injured reserve Monday. If Hurst is activated from IR and plays Thursday for the first time since Week 10, he could step in as a starter with Will Dislly (shoulder) having been ruled out. However, Hurst may not take on a robust snap count if cleared to play, as Stone Smartt has fared well as a pass catcher the past two weeks and could challenge Hurst for playing time.

Chargers' Hayden Hurst: Full practice Tuesday
Hayden Hurst (hip) was a full participant at the Los Angeles Chargers' practice Thursday.Hurst was designated to return from injured reserve Monday and he officially made his return to the practice field one day later. The tight end has been out since mid-November with a hip injury, missing the Chargers' last four games while on injured reserve. Hurst has caught seven of 12 targets for 65 yards over seven games in 2024. With Will Dissly (shoulder) still banged up, it's possible that Hurst would operate in a significant role Thursday night versus Denver if he gets activated from IR.

Chargers' Hayden Hurst: Resumes practicing
The Los Angeles Chargers designated Hayden Hurst (hip) for return from injured reserve Monday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.Hurst has already missed the minimum four games after being placed on injured reserve Nov. 25, and he's made enough progress to resume on-field work. The Chargers aren't likely to hold a full slate of practices this week in advance of Thursday's game in Denver, so the veteran tight end may not be able to get in sufficient reps to prove he's ready to rejoin the lineup. When Hurst does get activated, his playing time is likely to hinge on the status of top tight end Will Dissly (shoulder), who sat out Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers and is trending toward missing a second straight game.

Chargers' Hayden Hurst: Added to injury report
Hayden Hurst (hip) was limited at practice Friday.Hurst wasn't listed on Thursday's practice estimate, so the tight end's addition to the Los Angeles Chargers' injury report a day later makes his status worth monitoring ahead of Monday night's game against the Ravens. That said, Hurst carries modest fantasy lineup upside Week 12, given that Will Dissly is his team's clear-cut top passing-catching option at the TE position.
