With Omarion Hampton healthy, the Chargers now find themselves with a two-headed backfield. The second-year running back, Kimani Vidal, had delivered four top ten weekly finishes in Hampton’s absence, and the running back usage will be something for fantasy managers to monitor moving forward in our playoff schedule.

Chargers OC Greg Roman frequently used the term “hot hand” when referring to the usage of his running backs. Hampton should find his workload ramping back up as he showed why he was selected 22nd overall this spring, recording 294 all-purpose yards and two touchdowns in the weeks before his injuries. Hampton had 13 carries and two receptions, opposed to Vidal’s 14 carries and three catches in the Week 14 win over the Eagles.
