DJ Chark Jr. News
Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. had a big afternoon in a 37-27 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Chark hauled in four of his 11 targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in the high-scoring loss in Week 3. In the second quarter, the veteran wideout spun out of a tackle attempt at the Seattle 15-yard line and raced to the end zone for his first touchdown of the season. Chark dealt with a hamstring injury late in the preseason and missed Week 1 but he appears to be rounding into form. He is on the map as a flex play in deeper leagues heading into a Week 4 matchup against a porous Minnesota Vikings secondary.
Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. (hamstring), who was questionable to play on Monday night against the New Orleans Saints, is active and will make his debut for the Panthers. Chark has been dealing with a hamstring injury since late August and was forced to sit out of the team's Week 1 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Now that the 26-year-old is back, he'll give rookie first-round quarterback Bryce Young another receiving threat, mostly deep down the field. His return will be bad news for the fantasy ceilings of wideouts Adam Thielen and rookie Jonathan Mingo and tight end Hayden Hurst. The oft-injured Chark will most likely be a boom/bust WR4/5 in fantasy leagues this year in an offense that is expected to spread the ball around.
Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. (hamstring) was listed as a limited practice participant for the second straight day on Friday. Chark was inactive for the Week 1 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, and his status remains up in the air for a Week 2 meeting with the New Orleans Saints on Monday Night Football. The 26-year-old appears to be making some progress with his injury this week, but he could be questionable and is much too risky to rely on in fantasy lineups, especially with Carolina's game not coming until Monday this week. Rookie quarterback Bryce Young is likely to continue to keep spreading the ball around on offense, making all of the rookie's pass-catchers pretty unreliable for fantasy purposes against a lockdown Saints defense in Week 2.
