Chargers WR Ladd McConkey raised profile in win over Bengals

LOS ANGELES -- Ladd McConkey's first NFL primetime game ended in disappointment.

Against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 7 on "Monday Night Football," the rookie receiver caught five passes for 45 yards and had two drops in a 17-15 loss. It was the most disappointing game of McConkey's career up to that point, he said after the game.

That day, his performance and the struggles of the entire receiving group prompted a meeting amongst the receivers in the locker room. L.A.'s receivers had multiple drops, a fumble and the offense didn't score a touchdown despite gaining almost 400 yards.
