Antonio Gates and Malcom Floyd are inactive for the Chargers tonight. Vincent Jackson becomes a borderline WR1 start with Legedu Naanee & Seyi Ajirotutu also in the mix. Randy McMichael is a TE2 option highly reliant on the TD.

What the Rams do have is a rookie receiver who has learned from Davante Adams for the last seven months, taking in everything that the veteran has had to offer. Konata Mumpfield, a seventh-round rookie out of Pittsburgh, could see an increased role after Adams suffered a hamstring injury in Sunday’s win, which could sideline him for multiple weeks.
The story said Mumpfield has played between 38% and 45% of the snaps in the last four games, emerging as the Rams’ No. 3 receiver. He’s only caught five passes for 42 yards and a touchdown this season, but he’s been on the field a lot and has gained valuable experience. The story went on to say the Rams will likely use a committee approach to replace Adams on offense, assuming he does miss Thursday night's game. Mumpfield could lead the way as a true X receiver opposite Nacua, the story said, the same position Adams plays. Mumpfield has acquired a ton of knowledge about lining up in that spot from Adams, the story went on to say. Mumpfield probably isn't a guy to insert into fantasy lineups in typical leagues, but he may be worth picking up if he's on your wire in very deep leagues.

Sean McVay did not rule Davante Adams, who is also listed with a knee issue, out for Thursday night, however, and indications are that the team will wait as long as possible before making a decision about whether he will play.
Adams aggravated a hamstring injury in Sunday’s win over the Lions and the team listed him as a non-participant on Monday’s estimated practice report. Adams will be out of practice again on Tuesday.

In ending a two-game losing streak, the Ravens (7-7) looked like a playoff team, recording their most complete performance of the season. And by throwing touchdown passes and running for first downs, Jackson took another step toward looking like his old self.
"I believe I told you guys early on in the week that I was feeling better, like Thursday," Jackson said. "I guess you guys had to see it to believe it."
Jackson's final numbers were pedestrian. He recorded the fewest completions of his eight-year career in a full game, connecting on 8-of-12 passes for 150 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.
Jackson's production lately has dipped in tandem with his reduced practice time, the story pointed out. He has missed at least one full practice in each of the past five games, sitting out for the most part because of injuries (knee, ankle and toe), the story continued. While his numbers last week weren't what fantasy owners have become used to, he was producing touchdowns again. Hopefully those who played Lamar in Week 15 have advanced in the playoffs. The Ravens and Jackson get the Patriots in Week 16.
