San Diego Chargers general manager Tom Telesco said he likes the team's current wide receiver corps and indicated the team likely will not sign a wide receiver even though they lost WR Danario Alexander (knee). "It hurts a lot because Danario worked so hard, he's a good player and a good kid. We thought he had a chance to be a bona-fide playmaker this season," Telesco said. "But we feel pretty good about the position. Fortunately, that is one of the positions where we have some depth."

San Diego Chargers WR Vincent Brown (hamstring) is likely to start opposite WR Malcom Floyd following the season-ending injury to WR Danario Alexander (knee). WRs Keenan Allen, Robert Meachem and Eddie Royal are the other receivers in the mix. Brown is not expected to play in the preseason opener Thursday, Aug. 8, however, after just returning to practice recently after a strained hamstring sidelined him from practice.

Updating a previous report, San Diego Chargers WR Danario Alexander (knee) suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in practice Tuesday, Aug. 6.

Fantasy Tip: Alexander has so much promise, but he just cannot seem to stay on the field. It appears Vincent Brown and Keenan Allen benefit this most, as they'll battle for a starting job opposite Malcom Floyd. Robert Meachem and Eddie Royal might also see more targets, getting another chance to earn their money.

San Diego Chargers WR Danario Alexander (ankle) left practice briefly Thursday, July 25, to get his ankles taped. He has been fragile during his career, but produced big results when healthy. He is hopeful of playing all 16 games this season, and he has changed his diet, conditioning and he said he is "prehabbing so I'm not rehabbing, to squash future problems.

Fantasy Tip: Alexander can be a very productive fantasy receiver, and perhaps the best downfield threat the Chargers have. However, he has had difficulty staying on the field. If he can do so, he might be a very good WR2/3 or flex fantasy option.

San Diego Chargers WR Keenan Allen worked with the first-team offense on the final day of the team's minicamp WRs Danario Alexander and Eddie Royal dinged up with undisclosed injuries. Allen said he's comfortable with the playbook and the offense's terminology. "He's done a nice job buying into what we're doing," head coach Mike McCoy said. "It's a change for him. We're moving guys around, and the skill-position guys really need to know every position because you never know when Philip is going to check at the line of scrimmage. You have an idea where you're playing, but when it comes to a formation, Philip can audible something whenever he wants. ... You've got to know every position."

Fantasy Tip: It'll be tough for Allen to earn a starting role at a position that's probably the deepest on San Diego's depth chart. Alexander, Malcom Floyd and Vincent Brown figure to rotate often, and the Chargers also have Royal and Robert Meachem. Barring an injury or unforeseen change, it's probably best to leave Allen for the waiver wire in redraft leagues.
