From the episode

where he wins as a route runner is in those big breaking routes in the intermediate area, which is that's going to be a lot of what this offense wants to do out of heavy personnel packages. He wins against man. He wins against zone.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

McConkey's intermediate route-running fits Chargers' heavy personnel scheme.

McConkey's strength is in big breaking routes in the intermediate area, which aligns perfectly with the Chargers' heavy personnel package scheme. He wins against both man and zone coverage and remains a strong vertical slot player. The new offensive environment should feature more intermediate targets and quick hitters, reducing the downfield chaos that plagued him last year.
