Joshua Palmer Fantasy

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Josh Palmer continued his impressive preseason by catching three of his five targets for 26 yards in Saturday's contest versus the Seattle Seahawks. Palmer has lived up to all of the buzz that's he's gotten this preseason. Palmer has been competing with fellow wideouts Tyron Johnson and Jalen Guyton for the No. 3 spot. Williams has dealt with foot issues in camp, but had a nice performance with four catches and 41 on nine targets in Saturday's preseason finale. Palmer appears to have sealed the deal though with his strong performance and is worth a late-round target with No. 2 wide receiver Mike Williams being one of the more injury plagued wide receivers in the game.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Josh Palmer will look to lock down the No. 3 wide receiver spot in Week 3 of the preseason versus the Seattle Seahawks. The rookie is competing with Jalen Guyton and Tyron Johnson for the spot. The former Tennessee Volunteer has drawn plenty of praise throughout training camp and that has carried over to both preseason games. Johnson has been dealing with a foot injury that has slowed him down and Guyton has been used more as someone to stretch the field. Palmer has caught seven of his eight targets for 39 yards and a touchdown so far and has been making more noise than Guyton and Williams throughout the offseason. Despite starting quarterback Justin Herbert sitting out preseason games, Palmer continues to impress and he could be a sleeper to target at the end of upcoming drafts. If he wins the No. 3 spot, managers should note that No. 2 wide receiver Mike Williams has a history of health problems and that could make him even more valuable in the long term. Those playing DFS in Week 3 should give the rookie a look.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Josh Palmer caught one pass for three yards and a touchdown in Sunday's preseason game versus the San Francisco 49ers. Palmer put the Chargers on the board with his touchdown grab in the second quarter, but it was otherwise a quiet night. The former Tennessee Volunteer has been drawn the attention of the Chargers during training camp and has been competing with Jalen Guyton and Tyron Johnson for the No. 3 spot behind Kennan Allen and Mike Williams. The Chargers spent a third-round pick on Palmer in this year's draft and he has now caught seven of his eight targets in the preseason for 39 yards and a touchdown. The rookie's situation is worth keeping an eye on and he could have sleeper appeal towards the end of upcoming drafts with the Chargers looking like they will have one of the higher scoring offenses this upcoming season.
