Ladd McConkey from the Chargers should have a big game against the Broncos.

So far this season, McConkey has 11 receptions for 122 yards, ranking him 27th in the league for receptions. This game at SoFi Stadium provides an opportunity for McConkey to continue racking up yards, as the Broncos defense will have a tough time containing his speed and catching ability.
