Sun, 10 Feb 2013 18:11:26 -0800 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem had just 14 receptions, and he was targeted only 32 times in 2012, but he is guaranteed $5 million in 2013.
Mon, 26 Nov 2012 19:05:53 -0800 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem did not appear on the stat sheet in Week 12 against the Baltimore Ravens. "He's in it, but it comes down to what we're using in terms of personnel groups," head coach Norv Turner said Monday, Nov. 26. "We have a comfort level with (WR Malcom Floyd). Malcom plays all the positions. We've tried to get (WR Danario Alexander) going and he's made some plays for us. That's where we're at right now."
Sat, 17 Nov 2012 19:42:50 -0800 San Diego Chargers WR Malcom Floyd has taken over as the team's "Z" receiver. The "Z" typically lines up on the same side as TE Antonio Gates, and Floyd was moved there in Week 10 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to create mismatches and make opponents pick their poison. The position was previously manned by WR Robert Meachem. "With Antonio and I lining up next to each other, we put a strain on whatever side we're on," Floyd said.
Wed, 14 Nov 2012 16:24:07 -0800 San Diego Chargers WR Danario Alexander (knee) said his left knee, which he's undergone five surgeries on dating back to sophomore year in college, feels just as good as his right knee these days. He has eight catches for 195 yards and a touchdown in his last two games with the Chargers, and he started over WR Robert Meachem in Week 10.
Mon, 12 Nov 2012 18:13:50 -0800 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem has a $5 million base salary that is fully guaranteed for 2013. The potential of a new coaching staff and personnel staff complicates his future.
Fri, 09 Nov 2012 13:54:08 -0800 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem (hamstring) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 9, and is probable for the team's Week 10 game.
Thu, 08 Nov 2012 14:48:28 -0800 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem (hamstring) fully participated in practice Thursday, Nov. 8.
Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:27:58 -0800 San Diego Chargers CB Chris Carr (quadriceps), WR Robert Meachem (hamstring) and WR Eddie Royal (hamstring) practiced in full Wednesday, Nov. 7.
Fri, 02 Nov 2012 17:06:30 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Danario Alexander said he is still learning the team's playbook and working at getting on the same page as QB Philip Rivers. Rivers and Alexander worked together closely the past two weeks to build chemistry. Alexander caught three passes for a team-high 61 yards against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 9, which he said is just the beginning. Rivers was impressed with Alexander's performance. "Danario was big and he was great. He had a third down slant way down in there inside the ten, then a couple more end routes, an out route that got us going. He was good, he was comfortable. It's just amazing," Rivers said of his new weapon. Fantasy Tip: Alexander is worth the look if you're hurting at wide receiver. Robert Meachem has been a huge disappointment thus far for the Chargers, plus he is dealing with an injury, as is WR Eddie Royal. Vincent Brown, who the team hoped would be able to return, appears to still be at least several weeks away from hitting the field if he does at all.
Fri, 02 Nov 2012 12:34:20 -0700 San Diego Chargers WRs Robert Meachem (hamstring) and Eddie Royal (hamstring) are expected to take part in practice Wednesday, Nov. 7. Head coach Norv Turner said both receivers were close to playing Week 9.
Thu, 01 Nov 2012 16:14:24 -0700 The San Diego Chargers have declared SS Brandon Taylor, CB Chris Carr, WR Eddie Royal, LB Jonas Mouton, TE Ladarius Green, LB Larry English, WR Robert Meachem inactive for Week 9.
Wed, 31 Oct 2012 13:02:08 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem (hamstring) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Oct. 31, and is questionable for the team's Week 9 game.
Tue, 30 Oct 2012 19:53:28 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem said that he wants to be more consistent for his head coach Norv Turner and QB Philip Rivers. He said he has been far too inconsistent to help his team to this point. Meachem said he feels physically fine after having arthroscopic surgery in the offseason and losing roughly 10 pounds in training camp.
Tue, 30 Oct 2012 16:14:08 -0700 San Diego Chargers CB Chris Carr (quadriceps) and WR Robert Meachem (hamstring) were limited in practice Tuesday, Oct. 30.
Sun, 28 Oct 2012 14:05:26 -0700 San Diego Chargers RB Ronnie Brown led the team in receiving in Week 8 against the Cleveland Browns, hauling in seven receptions for 85 yards. WR Malcom Floyd was the top wide receiver target with four grabs and 43 yards. No other wide receiver had a reception, although WR Robert Meachem did carry once for minus-6 yards.
Mon, 15 Oct 2012 21:06:06 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Malcom Floyd had five receptions for 60 yards in the Week 6 game against the Denver Broncos Monday, Oct. 15, to lead the team's wide receivers in both categories. WR Robert Meachem followed up his impressive Week 5 performance with just three grabs for 30 yards, and WR Eddie Royal had two grabs for 22 yards.
Sun, 07 Oct 2012 21:52:37 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem had three receptions for 67 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Week 5 against the New Orleans Saints, his former team.
Wed, 03 Oct 2012 18:56:08 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem has gotten off to a slow start statistically, and head coach Norv Turner did not sound overly concerned Wednesday, Oct. 3. "Just the way our games have been going, we haven't had the opportunity to get the ball to our wide receivers a lot," Turner said. "I see it all the time on the practice field with he and Eddie Royal that we're making progress and we're doing a lot of good things. It will show up in games soon, or sometime along the way when I don't expect it or you don't expect it."
Sun, 23 Sep 2012 21:52:54 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Malcom Floyd posted three catches for a team-high 52 yards in the Week 3 loss against the Atlanta Falcons. WR Robert Meachem checked in with four receptions for 43 yards, while WR Eddie Royal mustered only seven yards on two receptions.
Mon, 17 Sep 2012 23:02:01 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem has two catches through two games and failed to record a catch during the team's Week 2 win over the Tennessee Titans, but head coach Norv Turner doesn't sound worried about it. "Robert is just having bad luck. On the fourth play of the game (against the Titans) he was running as open as you can be and Tyronne Green pulled and overshot his guy. He was surprised at how flat the defensive end was. Philip (Rivers) had to run out and Robert almost caught it. If the protection was clean, he would have had a 50-yard touchdown there. He would have had a few other opportunities and some things seemed to go wrong in the middle there. Not by fault of Robert or Philip. I'm excited about the threat that Robert gives us and he was hauling," Turner said.
Mon, 10 Sep 2012 22:52:42 -0700 San Diego Chargers WRs Robert Meachem and Eddie Royal each made their team debuts in Week 1 against the Oakland Raiders Monday, Sept. 10. Meachem had two grabs for 49 yards, while Royal posted just four yards on two receptions.
Thu, 02 Aug 2012 06:58:10 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem (knee) left practice early Wednesday, Aug. 1, with a right knee injury; however, head coach Norv Turner said the injury does not appear to be serious. The team plans to give an update on his status Thursday, Aug. 2.
Tue, 31 Jul 2012 22:26:49 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem (general soreness), who missed practice Sunday, July 29 due to general soreness, was back on the practice field Tuesday, July 31.
Sun, 29 Jul 2012 13:34:48 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem (undisclosed) did not participate in practice Sunday, July 29, because of soreness. Head coach Norv Turner said he expects Meachem to return to practice Tuesday, July 31.
Thu, 19 Jul 2012 05:07:00 -0700 San Diego Chargers QB Philip Rivers said he will miss WR Vincent Jackson, who signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the offseason; however, he is excited about the receivers on the roster. "You miss Vincent Jackson, I wish we never had to lose any of the big free agents that we lost," Rivers said. "But at the same time, I'm excited about who we gained in return. And getting Eddie Royal, getting Robert Meachem, those are guys that can make plays and do some different things."
Wed, 27 Jun 2012 13:49:30 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Malcom Floyd is expected to enter training camp as the No. 1 receiver with WR Robert Meachem being the No. 2 receiver, but the designations likely will not matter since both will receive plenty of playing time.
Fri, 22 Jun 2012 19:06:13 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem spent the past four season working with the New Orleans Saints and QB Drew Brees. He notes significant similarity between Brees and QB Philip Rivers, and he likes the style of head coach Norv Turner. "As far as approach, you have two coaches on the field who tell everybody where to go, put people in the right spots," Meachem said. "And you enjoy that, being a wide receiver."
Fri, 08 Jun 2012 22:44:43 -0700 San Diego Chargers head coach Norv Turner said Friday, June 8, that WR Robert Meachem has been more versatile than when he looked at videotape from his play with the New Orleans Saints. "Meachem can get up the field. He's a deep threat, but he's also a more versatile receiver than I thought he'd be when you looked at tape," Turner said. "He can do a lot more things than he did in New Orleans because they didn't need those things from him because they had other guys. But he's an outstanding route (runner), he's a good 'feel' receiver and he does have outstanding hands."
Sun, 20 May 2012 12:37:49 -0700 San Diego Chargers QB Philip Rivers said he has been working on building a rapport with WRs Robert Meachem, Eddie Royal, Micheal Spurlock and Roscoe Parrish because it will be easier to him to communicate with them and understand their tendencies. Rivers said creating chemistry and timing with the receivers on the field is something they can work on during offseason workouts.
Wed, 02 May 2012 05:41:50 -0700 San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem (knee) had arthroscopic knee surgery shortly after the end of the season and his recovery has been smooth so far. "I'm going to do everything: OTAs, minicamp," Meachem said. "I'm feeling good. I'm in a new atmosphere. I'm getting all the help I need to make sure I'm good for the next year. Pretty much everything is good right now."
Sun, 01 Apr 2012 10:14:58 -0700 San Diego Chargers head coach Norv Turner said he would not be surprised if WR Robert Meachem catches 60 to 70 passes for at least 1,000 yards this season.
Fri, 16 Mar 2012 10:36:54 -0700 San Diego Chargers new WR Robert Meachem is projected to be a starting receiver for San Diego. The team sees him as a speedy, downfield threat. They are looking for him to improve on his 40- to 45-catch range that he posted the past three years while he was with the New Orleans Saints.
Thu, 15 Mar 2012 05:44:46 -0700 San Diego Chargers head coach Norv Turner said he considers WR Robert Meachem an exciting vertical threat and a potential No. 1 receiver.
Tue, 13 Mar 2012 21:30:38 -0700 The San Diego Chargers agreed to a four-year deal with free-agent WR Robert Meachem (Saints) Tuesday, March 13. The deal is worth $25.9 million, with $14 million fully guaranteed. Fantasy Tip: Meachem will be asked to replace Vincent Jackson as a the team's deep threat, but you can't expect him to be a true No. 1. The Chargers spread the ball around so much that Meachem's reception total should be low (after all, Jackson never caught more than 68 passes in a single season with the Chargers). The offense may return to more of a ground-control emphasis, with Antonio Gates being the featured target in the passing game. Meachem can be considered a high-upside No. 4 or a slightly risky third fantasy receiver because of his issues with drops.
Tue, 13 Mar 2012 15:22:23 -0700 The San Diego Chargers have inquired and reached out about free-agent WR Robert Meachem (Saints), who is visiting with the Buffalo Bills. No visit with the Chargers has been planned thus far.

Tue, 06 Mar 2012 16:19:59 -0800 Retired WR Randy Moss "looked like the old Randy" during his workout for the New Orleans Saints Tuesday, March 6. He ran 45 routes and impressed the team in his performance. A source said his workout "couldn't have gone better." Impending free-agent WRs Marques Colston and Robert Meachem may not return next season.
