Chargers thinned at WR with Joshua Palmer ruled out for MNF

The Los Angeles Chargers have ruled out wide receiver Joshua Palmer for Monday's game against the New York Jets due to a knee injury.

Since wide receiver Mike Williams tore his ACL in Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings, the Chargers have leaned heavily on Palmer as the second option behind Keenan Allen. Palmer has 294 yards on 15 receptions since Week 3, including five catches for 133 yards against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7.

With Palmer out, the Chargers will rely on rookie first-round pick Quentin Johnston, who hasn't had a significant impact yet this season.
