News

  • One catch in win

    Guyton caught one of his three targets for five yards in Sunday's 6-0 victory over the Patriots.

    Analysis: Although he logged the third most offensive snaps (38) among Chargers wide receivers, Guyton was hardly used offensively. The 26-year-old has brought in one or fewer receptions in three of his four games played this season and has only tallied double digits in receiving yards once in 2023. At this point, it would be an anomaly if Guyton saw a significant uptick in targets, even with the consistent playing time.

  • One reception in return

    Guyton recorded one catch for four yards in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Guyton struggled to put up a solid game stats-wise even after a Week 10 season-high (4-41-1), but he was still third in targets and tied a season high in offensive snaps with 53. That number was likely aided by the third-quarter injury to rookie Quentin Johnston (ribs), but it's unclear if he would have been able to return. Additionally, receiver Joshua Palmer (knee) could return in the ensuing weeks, as he's already exceeded his mandated four-game absence after landing on injured reserve…read more

  • Active versus Ravens

    Guyton (groin) is officially active for Sunday's home game against the Ravens.

    Analysis: Guyton's set to make his return after a one-game absence. He was on the PUP list for the first seven games of the season, then caught four of eight targets for 41 yards and a touchdown over a two-game span before missing the Chargers' Week 11 loss to the Packers. When healthy, the speedster has seen consistent playing time in three-receiver sets alongside Keenan Allen and Quentin Johnston.

  • Expected to suit up Sunday

    Guyton (groin) is expected to suit up for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Guyton, who is officially listed as questionable, looks set to return to the field after having been sidelined Week 11 versus Green Bay. In his last appearance, Week 10 versus Detroit, Guyton secured four of six targets for 41 yards and a score, so it's possible he handles a significant role alongside top option Keenan Allen and rookie Quentin Johnston on Sunday. Guyton's status will be made official when the Chargers release their inactive list roughly 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET…read more

  • Listed as questionable for Week 12

    Guyton (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens after being a limited participant in practices this week.

    Analysis: After sitting out the Chargers' Week 11 loss to the Packers, Guyton seemingly has a better chance to play this Sunday after he was able to practice this week, albeit in a limited capacity. Ideally for those considering him in Week 12 fantasy lineups, more clarity regarding Guyton's status will come well before the Chargers and Ravens kick off at 8:20 p.m. ET. If Guyton is available, he'll have an opportunity to reclaim a key role in a Chargers' wideout corps that also includes top option Keenan…read more

  • Remains limited Thursday

    Guyton (groin) remained limited at practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Guyton was also limited Wednesday, so he may need to practice fully Friday in order to approach Sunday night's game against the Ravens without an injury designation. If he's available this weekend, Guyton -- who was inactive Week 11 -- will have a chance to reclaim a key role in a Chargers' WR corps that also includes PPR stalwart Keenan Allen and 2023 first-rounder Quentin Johnston.

  • Reps capped Wednesday

    Guyton (groin) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

    Analysis: Guyton closed Week 11 prep as a limited practice participant, only to take a questionable tag into Sunday before sitting out the Chargers' eventual 23-20 loss to the Packers. Though he hasn't taken a meaningful step forward Wednesday in terms of practice activity, he'll still have two more chances this week to upgrade to full participation before the Chargers decide whether he carries a designation into Sunday's game against the Ravens.

  • Practicing Wednesday

    Guyton (groin) was present for practice Wednesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: After logging a limited practice Friday, Guyton was added to the Chargers' Week 11 injury report before he ended up missing Sunday's loss to the Packers. The fact that Guyton was on the field Wednesday offers hope that he could return to action Sunday against the Ravens, but he'll need to practice fully by the end of the week in order to avoid an injury designation.

  • Inactive Sunday

    Guyton (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers.

    Analysis: Guyton was added to the Chargers' Week 11 injury report after logging a limited practice Friday, and he'll end up sitting this one out. In his absence Sunday, Keenan Allen and Quentin Johnston are slated to lead the team's WR corps, with Derius Davis, Simi Fehoko, Alex Erickson and Terrell Bynum also in the mix to help fill in for Guyton, whose next chance to see game action will arrive Nov. 26 against the Ravens.

  • Not expected to face Packers

    Guyton (groin) remains listed as questionable but is expected to be inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Guyton appears on track to miss the Week 11 contest due to a groin injury sustained in Friday's practice. On the bright side for Los Angeles, Keenan Allen (shoulder) is expected to play without restrictions. Guyton's status will be made official when the Chargers release their inactive list 90 minutes ahead of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Questionable with groin injury

    Guyton (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers.

    Analysis: Guyton appears to have picked up the groin issue in practice, as he was a late addition to the Week 11 injury report after a limited practice Friday. Fellow wide receiver Keenan Allen (shoulder) also is listed as questionable while tight end Gerald Everett (chest) has been ruled out, so the Chargers' passing game could be shorthanded Sunday.

  • Scores first TD in 2023

    Guyton corralled four of his six targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in the 41-38 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

    Analysis: Despite missing over a year due to a torn ACL, Guyton has essentially slotted right into his previous role, playing over 60 percent of the snaps for the second consecutive week. It's hard to imagine the speedster regularly seeing a half-dozen targets even with Mike Williams (knee) done for the season, but he could still have utility in deeper fantasy leagues depending on the matchup. Expect the Chargers to produce plenty of offense against a disappointing Packers defense in Week 11.

  • Plays 33 snaps in return

    Guyton played 33 offensive snaps in Monday's 27-6 win over the Jets, but he failed to catch his only target.

    Analysis: Guyton finally made his 2023 season debut after tearing his ACL back in Week 3 of last season. While the veteran speedster saw plenty of playing time with Joshua Palmer (knee) sidelined, he predictably didn't draw much of a focus. Expect the 26-year-old to see an occasional target to keep defenses honest, but even a heavy snap count likely won't elicit much fantasy value.

  • Back in action Monday

    Guyton (knee) is listed as active for Monday night's game against the Jets, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Guyton was activated from the reserve/PUP list Sunday and is set to make his first appearance in a game since tearing his ACL in Week 3 of last season. In his return to the mix, he'll bolster the depth of a Chargers' wide receiver corps that will be without Joshua Palmer (knee), who is out at least four games after having landed on IR. While Keenan Allen and Quentin Johnston are slated to lead the unit while Palmer is out, Guyton will have a chance to compete for snaps behind the top duo with…read more

  • Comes off PUP list

    The Chargers reinstated Guyton (knee) from the PUP list Sunday but list him as questionable for Monday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: Guyton had his 21-day evaluation window opened Oct. 19 and turned in a trio of full practices Thursday through Saturday, so the expectation is that he'll avoid the inactive list and suit up Monday for his season debut now that he's been added back to the 53-man roster. The Chargers placed fellow receiver Joshua Palmer (knee) on injured reserve in a corresponding move, potentially opening the door for Guyton to challenge the likes of Derius Davis and Simi Fehoko for the No. 3 receiver role…read more

  • Not yet ready to come off PUP list

    Guyton (knee-ACL) won't come off the reserve/PUP list in Week 7.

    Analysis: Guyton is nearing a return after sitting out the beginning part of the campaign while continuing to rehab the torn ACL he suffered in Week 3 last season. He was able to log a limited practice session both Thursday and Friday this week but isn't quite ready to make his season debut. Guyton will instead look to return next Sunday against the Bears.

  • Nearing return

    Los Angeles opened the 21-day activation window from the PUP list for Guyton (knee) on Thursday, Eric Smith of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Guyton's activation window has been opened and he was spotted participating in individual drills during Thursday's practice, per Daniel Popper of The Athletic. The 26-year-old suffered a torn ACL during the Chargers' Week 3 contest in 2022, and once he's ready for in-game action, expect the wideout to help Los Angeles stretch the field.

  • Starting year on PUP list

    The Chargers placed Guyton (knee) on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday.

    Analysis: Guyton won't be eligible to return until after the first four games of the regular season have concluded, though his shift to the reserve/PUP list was expected. The Chargers have little incentive to rush Guyton's recovery along, as the team can rely on all of Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Joshua Palmer and first-round pick Quentin Johnston to headline Justin Herbert's WR corps.

  • Likely headed to reserve/PUP list

    Guyton (knee) is expected to begin the season on the reserve/PUP list, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Guyton, who tore his ACL in Week 3 of last season, has been on the active/PUP list, but once a move is made to shift the wideout to the reserve/PUP list, he'll be in line to miss at least the first four games of the coming campaign. As roster cut downs approach, the Chargers' WR corps is led by Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Joshua Palmer and Quentin Johnston.

  • Lands on PUP list

    The Chargers placed Guyton (knee) on the active/PUP list Tuesday.

    Analysis: Guyton tore his ACL in Week 3 of last season and won't be ready to participate in the initial stages of training camp. He can, however, be activated from the list in the coming days and weeks, and if/when that occurs, the 26-year-old will look to cement a depth role in a Chargers wideout corps that led by Keenan Allen and Mike Williams.

  • Re-signs with Los Angeles

    The Chargers re-signed Guyton on Monday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Guyton tore his ACL in Week 3 of last season but is on the field for the start of offseason workouts Monday, according to Popper. He wasn't tendered an offer as a restricted free agent earlier this offseason but now is back at a cheaper rate. Guyton has speed to burn as a deep threat, but the Chargers really need to focus on upgrading their wideout room in the NFL Draft later this month.

  • Headed for free agency

    The Chargers didn't extend Guyton (knee) a qualifying offer or contract tender as a restricted free agent Wednesday, so he's officially an unrestricted free agent, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Guyton is currently rehabbing from an ACL tear he suffered during Week 3 of 2022 campaign, and it's unclear when he'll be 100 percent healthy. The undrafted wideout out of North Texas caught 59 of 103 targets for 959 yards and six touchdowns across his first two NFL seasons in Los Angeles, but he'll likely have to prove he's back to full strength before securing a new deal.

  • Shifts to injured reserve

    The Chargers placed Guyton (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Analysis: Guyton suffered a torn ACL during Sunday's loss to the Jaguars and has been ruled out for the remainder of the season. The speedster was a solid deep threat for the Chargers over the prior two seasons, but he'd only seen 29 snaps and four targets through three games this year as Joshua Palmer and DeAndre Carter had surpassed him on the depth chart, so his absence won't have much of an impact on the team's passing game.

  • Out for season

    Guyton suffered a torn ACL during Sunday's loss to the Jaguars and will miss the remainder of the 2022 campaign, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Guyton caught two of three targets for 64 yards before getting hurt on Los Angeles' meaningless final drive with the game long decided. The wideout has been a solid deep threat over the past two-plus campaigns, catching 59 passes for 959 yards and six touchdowns, so his absence will be a significant blow to the Chargers offense.

  • Knee injury could be serious

    Guyton suffered a knee injury in Sunday's 38-10 loss to Jacksonville, and there are early fears that the injury is significant, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: Guyton caught two of three targets for 64 yards before getting hurt on Los Angeles' meaningless final drive with the game long decided. Another update on Guyton's status will surface after the team performs additional testing, but he's most likely looking at a multi-week absence at minimum, as Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports that Guyton left the locker room on crutches.

  • Completely absent in win

    Guyton did not record a reception on his lone target in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Raiders.

    Analysis: Guyton saw just five offensive snaps despite a midgame injury to Keenan Allen (hamstring). After an uneven training camp in which Guyton clearly fell behind both Joshua Palmer and DeAndre Carter on the depth chart, it's obvious the speedster has completely fallen out of favor with the coaching staff and likely shouldn't be rostered in most fantasy formats.

  • Pair of grabs in preseason opener

    Guyton brought in both targets for six yards in the Chargers' 29-22 preseason loss to the Rams on Saturday night.

    Analysis: Guyton wasn't able to do much with his pair of touches, although the teammate he's still hoping to beat out for the No. 3 receiver job, Joshua Palmer, couldn't corral any of his four targets. Guyton does have the edge on Palmer in experience after appearing in 35 games over the past three seasons, but it appears from recent practices the latter has the edge in the job battle.

  • Losing ground for WR3

    Guyton has seemingly been surpassed by Joshua Palmer for the No. 3 role, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Palmer had worked with the starting unit for most of the offseason OTAs, something that has clearly carried over into the early stages of training camp. Popper did note Guyton has put together a solid camp and likely could be used in specific sub packages whenever the team needs additional speed on the field, but it's hardly a ringing endorsement for the 25-year-old after two consecutive seasons as a starter. It doesn't seem as if Guyton is on the roster bubble yet, but special teams standouts…read more

  • Draws praise for special teams work

    Guyton earned rave reviews from Chargers head coach Brandon Staley for his performance on special teams during OTAs, Gavino Borquez of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: As a capable returner and special teams gunner, Guyton looks as though he'll have a key role in 2022 on the Chargers' third unit. Guyton's outlook on the offensive end is more muddled, however, after Joshua Palmer was spotted working with the first-team offense during offseason workouts. Expect the two to have a spirited battle for the No. 3 wideout role throughout training camp.

  • Signs exclusive rights tender

    Guyton officially signed his exclusive rights free agent tender Tuesday and will remain with the Chargers this coming season, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old finished the 2021 campaign third among Los Angeles' wide receivers in terms of yardage (448), while logging 31 receptions on 48 targets and three touchdowns in 16 games. Beyond competing for reps behind Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, Guyton could also contribute in the return game, as the Chargers haven't re-signed last season's primary returner Andre Roberts.

  • To receive contract tender

    The Chargers are slated to extend a contract tender to Guyton, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

    Analysis: As a result, Guyton -- an exclusive rights free agent -- is poised to reclaim his role in the Chargers offense in 2022. The 24-year-old is coming off a 2021 campaign in which he logged 31 catches (on 48 targets) for 448 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games. This coming season Guyton will continue to work behind the team's top pass-catching options, Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, while competing with Joshua Palmer and possibly others for No. 3 wideout reps.

  • Excels in final game

    Guyton caught six of his nine targets for 52 yards in Sunday's 35-32 loss to the Raiders. The third-year wide receiver finished the season with 31 receptions for 448 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games.

    Analysis: It took until the final game of the season, but Guyton recorded season highs in receptions and targets while tallying his third effort with at least 50 receiving yards over his last five contests. Part of that extra volume was due to the Chargers furiously attempting a double-digit fourth quarter comeback, but it underscores what had been an encouraging month of December for Guyton after what looked liked a subpar season for the 24-year-old. That being said, it's hard to have much optimism from…read more

  • Catches two passes in win

    Guyton caught both of his targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 34-13 win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: Guyton and teammate Joshua Palmer shared the Chargers' No. 3 receiver role Week 17 after Mike Williams (illness) activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list prior to the contest. Guyton played on 32 of the Chargers' 67 offensive naps, while Palmer played just one fewer snap.

  • Poised for No. 3 receiver role

    Guyton and Joshua Palmer are expected to share the Chargers' No. 3 receiver role Sunday against the Broncos after Mike Williams (illness) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list, Gavino Borquez of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: While both Williams and Guyton were on the list last week, Palmer stepped in as the No. 2 wideout behind Keenan Allen and played a whopping 98 percent of the Chargers' offensive snaps and finished with a 5-43-1 receiving line on six targets in a 41-29 loss to the Texans. After Guyton was activated from the list Wednesday, both he and Palmer looked poised to have regular spots in three-receiver sets this weekend, but Williams' reinstatement Thursday will close the door on that possibility.…read more

    Analysis: Guyton wasn't available during last week's loss to Houston, but he's been cleared with plenty of time to spare before Sunday's game against the Broncos. Mike Williams remains on the reserve/COVID-19 list, and while there's still a solid chance Williams returns this week as well, for now, Guyton tentatively slots in as the No. 2 wide receiver behind Keenan Allen.

  • Tallies another score

    Guyton snared both of his targets for 10 yards and a touchdown in the 34-28 loss to the Chiefs on Thursday.

    Analysis: With both Mike Williams (heel) and Keenan Allen (COVID-19) back and healthy, Guyton's role predictably reverted back to his rest-of-season figures, but the speedy target did manage to snag his third consecutive touchdown thanks to a short red-zone pass. It's hard to imagine Guyton, who had back-to-back games with at least 87 yards and a touchdown prior to Thursday, will emerge as a key piece in Los Angeles' passing attack, but it's clear Justin Herbert has developed a bit of budding confidence…read more

  • Shines in win

    Guyton caught all three of his targets for 87 yards and a touchdown in a 37-21 win over the Giants on Sunday.

    Analysis: After a disappointing start to the season in which the wideout did not record a touchdown through 12 weeks, Guyton has had back-to-back strong games with at least 87-plus yards and a touchdown. The 24-year-old has shined as the Chargers' deep-threat option, catching a 59-yard touchdown pass and a 44-yard touchdown pass over the past two weeks. The wideout's deep-ball ability has opened up a lot of offensive production underneath as defenses have now started to worry about the long pass. In the…read more

  • First TD of 2021

    Guyton caught all four of his targets for 90 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-22 win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Guyton made an impressive 44-yard catch against man coverage, coming down with a nifty jump ball for his first score of the 2021 season. The rarely utilized wide receiver also saw his most targets since Week 6, capitalizing on quarterback Justin Herbert's willingness to spread the ball around Sunday. Don't expect Guyton to emerge as a crucial target most weeks as the Chargers have become heavily dependent on a narrow target tree of Keenan Allen, Mike Williams and Austin Ekeler.

  • Grabs key catch on fourth down

    Guyton caught two of his three targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 28-13 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: The Chargers never managed to gain much traction against a stifling Broncos defense, but Guyton did help the team with a critical 15-yard catch-and-run on fourth-and-4 near the end of the third quarter. The drive ultimately ended thanks to an ill-timed interception, but that reception was arguably one of Guyton's lone highlights of the season to date. The speed threat now has back-to-back games playing at least 50 percent of the offensive snaps, but the extra workload predictably hasn't…read more

  • Posts 18-yard catch in win

    Guyton caught one of two targets for 18 yards while also carrying the ball once for two yards in Sunday night's 41-37 win over the Steelers.

    Analysis: Guyton has not had a game with more than one catch since the Week 5 contest against the Browns. However, the receiver has recorded a catch of at least 15-plus yards in five of his last six games. After splitting a lot of the third wide receiver role last week, Guyton out-snapped Josh Palmer 41 to 23 on Sunday night.

  • Zero catches in loss

    Guyton did not catch a pass and had just one target in Sunday's 27-20 loss to Minnesota.

    Analysis: Guyton's disappointing season continues as he was unable to catch a pass for the second time this season. The 24-year-old was only on the field for 31 percent of offensive snaps, a number significantly less than his season average. Not only did the young receiver put up nothing offensively, but Josh Palmer, his main competition for the No. 3 wide receiver spot, caught three passes for 22 yards. Look for Guyton's workload to continue to decrease as he splits offensive snaps with Palmer.

    Guyton caught one of two of his targets for 19 yards in Sunday's win over the Eagles 27-24.

    Analysis: As the No. 3 wide receiver, Guyton has not been targeted much this season. It's a bit concerning that the speedy wide receiver saw his snap-share dip coincide with rookie Josh Palmer taking a small jump in playing time, but neither did much with the Chargers' trio of tight ends all putting together positive outings. It's possible Palmer's development as a prospect could result in a more even playing-time split over the coming weeks, but neither figures to see enough volume to be fantasy…read more

    Guyton caught one of his two targets for 18 yards in the 27-24 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

    Analysis: Guyton now has one or fewer catches in four of the last five games after emerging as the No. 3 wide receiver to begin the season. Primarily a run blocker and speed decoy, Guyton will see plenty of playing time any given game, but it's hardly useful for fantasy purposes.

    Guyton caught just one of his five targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 34-6 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: For the first time all season the Chargers passing attack, particularly Mike Williams and Keenan Allen, was completely stifled, which allowed for Guyton to get an usually high five targets. The lack of efficiency with those opportunities likely has more to do with numerous uncatchable passes thrown by Justin Herbert and less of an indictment on Guyton, but it's obviously a difficult line nevertheless.

  • Critical catch in win

    Guyton tallied two receptions (on three targets) for 35 yards in Sunday's 47-42 win over the Browns.

    Analysis: Guyton continues to see plenty of snaps but simply hasn't been a major factor. Known more for his speed rather than his strength, Guyton showcased the latter on a nifty 21-yard reception in the second half but was otherwise hardly used. Given the Chargers' narrow passing tree, it's hard to imagine Guyton emerging as a reliable fantasy option most weeks.

  • Does little in win

    Guyton caught one of his two targets for nine yards and also registered two carries for 20 yards in the 28-14 win over the Raiders on Monday.

    Analysis: Guyton once again saw a healthy 42 offensive snaps, whereas No. 4 wideout, Josh Palmer, saw a paltry seven total, but the speedy option once again did little with the playing time. After seeing five targets in Week 1, Guyton has more carries (four) than catches (three) over the last three weeks, essentially reverting back to his 2020 days as an offensive decoy.

    Guyton didn't catch his lone target but rushed once for three yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Guyton handled 41 offensive snaps (62 percent) but couldn't beat out Mike Williams, Keenan Allen and Austin Ekeler for a piece of the target pie. The 24-year-old has deep-threat appeal and could be used on gadget plays, but he's not a dependable fantasy option.

  • Just two receptions

    Guyton caught his two targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: It was a disappointing outing for Guyton after emerging as the team's third wideout in the Week 1 win. Keenan Allen, Mike Williams and Austin Ekeler combined for 260 of the 338 total receiving yards, so the lack of opportunities could easily be attributed to the trio's brilliance. It might be difficult for Guyton to break out against a Chiefs defense that has done a good job limiting big plays from the passing game this season.

  • Emerges as No. 3 wideout

    Guyton caught three of his five targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 20-16 victory over Washington.

    Analysis: Guyton, not Josh Palmer, was clearly the team's No. 3 wideout behind Keenan Allen and Mike Williams as the speedy wideout was a certifiable threat for quarterback Justin Herbert in the intermediate level. Underutilized as simply a speed decoy in Anthony Lynn's offensive system, Guyton could be poised to actually make good on his large number of snaps on a week-to-week basis.

    Analysis: Guyton missed most of the final week of training camp with a leg injury, but the speedy wide receiver appears to be past the issue. It'll be interesting to see how much Guyton plays after the 24-year-old lost a training-camp battle to rookie Josh Palmer for the team's No. 3 wideout role.

    Analysis: The specifics of the issue remain unclear, though Guyton was seen getting his upper leg wrapped at Tuesday's practice. The 24-year-old caught 28 passes for 511 yards and three touchdowns last season and is competing for the No. 3 job at wide receiver with Tyron Johnson and Josh Palmer.

    Guyton caught his lone target for 39 yards in Sunday's 15-10 preseason loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: Guyton ended up leading the Chargers in receiving yards despite making just one catch, as he was the only receiver able to break through the 49ers' tight coverage in this exhibition. The third-year wideout currently is battling for the vacant No. 3 WR job, so Sunday's big play should help his bid. Expect things to remain competitive between Guyton, Tyron Johnson and rookie Josh Palmer heading into the Chargers' third preseason tilt against the Seahawks on Saturday.

    Guyton has been outplayed by Josh Palmer and Tyron Johnson (foot) through the first week of training camp, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The three are competing to be the Chargers' No. 3 receiver, a role Guyton handled for most of last season, though he drew only 55 targets on 920 offensive snaps. While the team could get its third wideout more involved now that TE Hunter Henry is gone, the role still figures to entail a lot of blocking and clear-out routes. The blocking responsibilities might work in Guyton's favor, but Johnson is probably the better deep threat and Palmer is the only one the Chargers really have an investment…read more

  • Massive snap count yields little

    Guyton (hamstring) finished the 2020 season with 28 receptions for 511 yards and three touchdowns across 16 games.

    Analysis: The second-year player provides an example that high snap counts don't necessarily translate into fantasy success. Despite playing the 12th-most snaps of any wide receiver in 2020 and posting the third-highest average depth of target among wideouts with at least 40-plus targets (16.0), Guyton was hardly a factor in his first season as a starter. Content to use the 23-year-old as blazing speed decoy and not much more, Guyton caught three or more passes just three times all season, with two of…read more

    Analysis: Guyton's ability to take every rep Thursday clears the way for him to fill a starting role out wide for the Chargers in Sunday's game versus the Chiefs. Though Guyton has typically served as a secondary target for quarterback Justin Herbert this season, the receiver could be in store for a heightened role in the passing attack Week 17.

    Guyton was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring injury.

    Analysis: With Keenan Allen (hamstring) seemingly trending toward a second straight absence Sunday against the Chiefs, Guyton's Week 17 status gains added import. If Allen ends up out and Guyton is cleared to play this weekend, he would be taking aim at a Kansas City squad that's likely to be sitting or limiting some of its key defensive players, given that the Chiefs have already clinched the AFC's No. 1 seed.

    Guyton caught three of his five targets for 43 yards in the 19-16 win Sunday over the Broncos.

    Analysis: For a fourth consecutive week, Guyton saw the most offensive snaps of any wide receiver, but the speedy wideout was once again used as a decoy despite Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Hunter Henry (reserve/COVID-19 list) ruled out ahead of the contest. The 23-year-old Guyton has risen from relative obscurity to tally at least 30 receiving yards in four of the last five games, but he is simply a cursory cast member when considering the rest of the Chargers' dangerous receiving ensemble.

    Analysis: On a night when both Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Mike Williams (back) were at least partly hobbled, Guyton took advantage of extra opportunity to post a career- and team-high yardage figure. The catch that propelled him to those accomplishments was the most critical of the game for Los Angeles, as it came in the form of a 53-yard grab on a post pattern with just 3:05 remaining in overtime and the Raiders holding a 27-24 lead.

Instead, second-year pro Tyron Johnson immediately filled the void to the tune of six receptions for 55 yards and a touchdown, and he came up with the critical catch in the waning seconds to set up a game-winning 43-yard field goal.

    Analysis: Quarterback Justin Herbert was pressured tremendously throughout this game, which is likely why he looked to Guyton more times than ever before (seven targets). This matchup also marked Guyton's second time playing the most amount of offensive snaps (64), which was even more than Keenan Allen (62 snaps) and Mike Williams (59). The Chargers were unfortunately stumped in this blowout loss, but hopefully Guyton and company can turn it around for next Sunday against the Falcons.

The receiver also played in a similar number of offensive snaps (63) compared to Williams (67).

    Analysis: Coming off last week's season high in receptions, Guyton did not receive the same amount of opportunities in this matchup against the Jets. His limited opportunities were due to Keenan Allen's incredible performance, as Allen tied the franchise record for most receptions in a single game. Sunday's matchup against the Bills might make it difficult to give the 23-year-old Guyton more chances to be involved.

    Analysis: Guyton continues to be low on the pecking order with Mike Williams, Hunter Henry and Keenan Allen once again seeing many more targets. It's a bit surprising the 23-year-old hasn't found more targets considering he continues to see plenty of playing time (69 snaps Sunday, second behind Keenan Allen's 78), but so long as Guyton maintains his exclusive deep threat role, it'll be hard to roster him in fantasy leagues.

He now has nine receptions for 261 yards, while the Chargers' top two receivers, Mike Williams and Keenan Allen, have both seen more than double the yards and receptions.

Guyton's role isn't likely to change any time soon, but he'll remain a deep threat and a DFS dart throw for Week 8's road game against the Broncos.

That's to be expected considering Guyton is essentially meant to be a speedy distraction for opposing defenses.

    Analysis: There was some thought Guyton could emerge as an intriguing speed option if Mike Williams were ruled out Sunday after spraining his shoulder, but the big-bodied wideout managed to power through, relegating Guyton to the No. 3 role.

Whoever ultimately ends up winning that job would be expected to play opposite Williams on the outside, which is why Guyton's speed, which was clocked an unofficial 4.35 at North Texas' pro day, makes for an intriguing option and likely effective decoy.
