San Diego Chargers OT Jeromey Clary (knee), OG Tyronne Green (hamstring) and WR Eddie Royal (hamstring) practiced in full Wednesday, Dec. 19. Our View: With WR Malcom Floyd out for the year it will be helpful for the Chargers to get Royal back on the field. We can't trust him as a fantasy starter in week 16 until we see him make it through a game healthy.

San Diego Chargers WRs Robert Meachem (hamstring) and Eddie Royal (hamstring) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 9, and are probable for the team's Week 10 game.
Huddle Up: The Chargers suddenly have a glut of WRs a week after Meachem and Royal were out. For fantasy purposes, count on Malcom Floyd and leave the others for those in deeper leagues.

In the meantime, the team has signed WRs Danario Alexander and Seyi Ajirotutu, so it'll be interesting to see how the playing time pans out if all are healthy this Sunday.

Danario Alexander earns playing time

Danario Alexander to be 'big part' of Chargers offense?

Danario Alexander impressed in his first game as part of the San Diego Chargers and has won the chance to see significant playing time even when Robert Meachem and Eddie Royal return to the lineup. (Union-Tribune San Diego)

FF Today's Take: "Danario's going to play.

Danario Alexander - Chargers' Alexander has earned bigger role

Source: The Huddle

Updating a previous report, San Diego Chargers head coach Norv Turner said Friday, Nov. 2, that WR Danario Alexander will have an expanded role going forward. 'Danario's going to play. We're going to play him,' Turner said. 'He's going to be a big part of what we do. He earned that right last night.'
Huddle Up: Three catches for 61 yards usually isn't cause for a big celebration, but the Chargers have been looking for a wideout to step up alongside Malcom Floyd and Alexander just may fill the bill with Robert Meachem and Eddie Royal struggling with injuries and a lack of production.

Robert Meachem - Two WRs could practice next week

Source: The Huddle

San Diego Chargers WRs Robert Meachem (hamstring) and Eddie Royal (hamstring) are expected to take part in practice Wednesday, Nov. 7. Head coach Norv Turner said both receivers were close to playing Week 9.
Huddle Up: Danario Alexander and Seyi Ajirotutu did a decent job filling in for these two, and they have been largely disappointing in their first year with the Chargers. Still, they will be back in the lineup when they are healthy, rendering Alexander and Ajirotutu useless in the fantasy realm.

Chargers WR Robert Meachem (hamstring) is inactive for tonight's game against the Chiefs.  WR Eddie Royal is also out.  Neither guy has been effective this season, but it leaves QB Philip with only Seyi Ajirotutu and newly-signed Danario Alexander behind top WR Malcom Floyd.  Look for lots of Ryan Mathews and Antonio Gates.

Huddle Up: It's going to be tough for Royal to get ready with the Chargers' short week/Thursday game after sitting out Week 8, but he's not going to be missed fantasy-wise with only 13 catches 98 yards and a TD in 6 games to date.
