The Chargers had a forgetful day as they got demolished by the Texans 32-12 in the opening game of Wild Card weekend. The lone bright spot for the Chargers was Ladd McConkey. McConkey set a rookie record for receiving yards in a playoff game with 197. 

This performance is notable as it will surely make it easier to click Ladd McConkey near the 1-2 turn in fantasy football drafts next season. Ladd caught 9 passes on 14 targets and added a touchdown to his large day. This was good for 34.7 fantasy points which are helpful to those who play in playoff leagues. 

Overall, Ladd McConkey’s stock continues to soar up. Buying McConkey in dynasty will be a tall task. Those who were in on Ladd McConkey throughout the rookie process are waking up very happy every day!
