Palmer (knee) will not play Monday against the Jets, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Palmer didn't log a practice rep this week, so it's hard to be surprised by this outcome. Rookie Quentin Johnston might have to be a critical member of the passing game as a result, especially in the continued absence of Mike Williams (knee, done for the season). Expect Keenan Allen, Johnston and some combination of Derius Davis and Simi Fehoko to see the majority of the receiver snaps in three-wideout sets.

Palmer (knee) isn't practicing Friday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Palmer missed practice Thursday, so what the wideout is able to do Saturday, if anything, will be telling with regard to his chances of suiting up Monday night against the Jets. If Palmer ends being limited or out, though, rookie first-rounder Quentin Johnston would be slated to see added Week 9 opportunities alongside fellow WR Keenan Allen.

Palmer (knee) was officially a non-participant in practice Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Palmer now has two more chances to return to practice ahead of Monday night's game against the Jets. If the wideout ends up limited or out Week 9, however, Quentin Johnston would be in line to see added opportunities alongside the Chargers' top pass catcher Keenan Allen.

Palmer (knee) wasn't spotted at Thursday's practice, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Chargers' upcoming injury report will confirm Palmer's participation level either way, but the wideout did appear to be dealing with a knee issue during a portion of this past Sunday's win over the Bears, per Popper. Palmer, who finished up the contest, ended up catching three of his four targets for 24 yards while logging 47 of a possible 69 snaps on offense.

Palmer (knee) temporarily exited Sunday's contest to have his right knee examined, only to return later and finish with three catches on four targets for 24 yards in a 30-13 win over the Bears.

EDGE Analysis

Palmer appeared to have hurt the same knee that he injured in last week's loss to Kansas City. It was a positive sign that he returned and was able to finish the contest, but it is worth noting that two of Palmer's three receptions Sunday occurred before he went down in the first quarter. While no one would have questioned his toughness had he sat out the rest of the contest, it sounds like the receiver was playing at a limited capacity. Another piece of evidence in support of that theory was that No. 3 wideout Quentin Johnston (5-50-0) ended up having his most productive game of the season. The Chargers' first injury report of Week 9 should help clear up Palmer's status ahead of a Monday Night Football clash with the Jets.

Palmer (knee) has returned to Sunday's game against the Bears, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Palmer had his right knee looked at in the blue medical tent after liming off the field in the first quarter but managed to return in the second quarter after getting the knee taped up. An injury to the same knee had limited his practice participation heading into Sunday's game, so Palmer's playing at less than full health but will try to tough it out.

Palmer limped off the field in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Bears while grabbing the same right knee that he hurt in his previous game against the Chiefs, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Palmer missed practice Wednesday and Thursday due to the injury but managed to suit up Sunday after logging a limited session Friday. He caught two passes for 18 yards but stayed down after his second catch. Palmer eventually limped off the field and to the blue medical tent for further evaluation, but an official injury designation has yet to be provided by the team.

Palmer (knee) is listed as active for Sunday night's game against the Bears.

EDGE Analysis

Palmer missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, but after his return to a limited session Friday he was listed as questionable heading into the weekend. With Palmer's availability against Chicago confirmed, the wideout figures to remain a key cog in the Chargers' Week 8 passing game alongside PPR stalwart Keenan Allen in the absence of any in-game setbacks or limitations, with Quentin Johnston and Derius Davis also candidates to mix in. In his team's 31-17 loss to the Chiefs last weekend, Palmer caught five of his seven targets for a season-high 133 yards.

Palmer (knee) is considered a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Bears, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Palmer and tight end Gerald Everett (hip) are both officially listed as questionable, but the Chargers will likely gauge the health of both players during pregame warmups before deciding on their availability. Of the two players, the Chargers are reportedly more optimistic about Palmer's chances of suiting up versus Chicago. Official word on Palmer's status will arrive when the Chargers release their inactive list roughly 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

Palmer (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears after practicing in a limited fashion Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Palmer missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, but his return to a limited session Friday suggests that he has a chance to play through his knee issue this weekend. Per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, Palmer sported a sleeve on his right leg while doing drills Friday. With the Chargers kicking off at 8:20 p.m. ET on Sunday, Palmer's fantasy managers will likely want to keep a close eye on news pertaining to the wideout to get a sense of whether he's trending toward playing or sitting out. If Palmer ends up being inactive for the contest or is available only in a limited capacity, rookie first-round pick Quentin Johnston could step into a heightened role behind No. 1 receiver Keenan Allen.
