D.J. Chark Placed On IR With Hip Injury

D.J. Chark Placed On IR With Hip Injury

The Chargers placed WR D.J. Chark (hip) on IR. He's out for at least the first four games of the season. Chark looked like the favorite to open the season as Los Angeles' starting outside WR opposite Josh Palmer, but WR Quentin Johnston will now get another crack at that job. We're not very optimistic Johnston will take advantage, but he's worth monitoring in tomorrow's opener vs. the Raiders. Chark can be dropped in all redraft leagues.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert (foot) was on the field for Monday's practice. The Athletic's Daniel Popper posted video of Herbert taking a couple of half-speed dropbacks and launching deep balls.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert has been diagnosed with a plantar fascia injury in his right foot, the team announced. "Doctors have recommended approximately two weeks in a boot — followed by a graduated return to play protocol — with the expectation that he will be ready for the start of the regular season," the team said in a statement.
