Records second catch of the year McKitty hauled in his only target for four yards during Thursday's overtime loss 34-28 against the Chiefs. Impact McKitty, the 2021 third-round pick, saw his first game with over 35 offensive snaps on the season after Donald Parham left early in the game with a serious head injury. The 22-year-old tight end has been extremely underutilized in his rookie year as the Chargers have incredible depth at the tight end position. That being said, if Parham were to miss extended time with his injury, there would be additional opportunities for McKitty and Stephen Anderson to take snaps at tight end. Neither backup figures to see a heavy workload as top-option Jared Cook remains active for the Chargers.
