Ladd McConkey Injury Update: Latest News on Chargers WR's Status in Week 6 Game

McConkey played two drives and caught a 17-yard pass before leaving after five minutes in the medical tent, the team said.

  • On Sunday, Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey was ruled out early in the second quarter against the Chiefs with a concussion after spending five minutes in the medical tent.
  • McConkey returned to action Sunday after two days of limited practice, marking his first appearance since a Week 4 foot injury that sidelined the winless Chargers' receiving corps.
  • During his brief appearance, McConkey caught a 17-yard pass from quarterback Justin Herbert on the opening two drives before his final snap on a third down in the red zone.
  • With McConkey sidelined, the Chargers relied on Quinten Johnson and KeAndre Lambert-Smith, whom the team activated earlier this week, as Tre' Harris remained out due to hamstring injury.
  • The team awaits official medical reports to assess concussion severity, as McConkey's injury history includes rib and foot issues that previously limited him to emergency capacity against the Broncos.
