Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh said Omarion Hampton (ankle) is "on track and looking good" for Week 14 against the Eagles.Harbaugh did not go as far as to say that Hampton will play this week, but it certainly sounds like he is on the right side of questionable. Fantasy managers, of course, will need to stay locked into this situation heading into the final week of the fantasy football regular season. Hampton would return for an RB2 ranking versus an Eagles defense that was just carved up by the Bears on the ground. If he is held out another week, Kimani Vidal would force his way to the top of the RB2 ranks.
Kimani Vidal's Big Day Might Not MatterChargers RB Kimani Vidal racked up 126 yards and a TD on 25 carries in Sunday's win over the Raiders. That beat his season high for yardage by 2 and matched his season high in carries, set two games prior. Vidal added 1 catch for 11 yards.
Kimani Vidal rushed 25 times for 126 yards and one touchdown in the Chargers' Week 13 win over the Raiders, adding one reception for 11 yards.Vidal deserves credit in this one. The fill-in starting running back served as the engine of the offense, touching the ball six times on the Chargers' opening drive. He ripped off a 59-yard touchdown on the fifth drive, shooting the gap created by OL Jamaree Salyer after catching the pitch from QB Justin Herbert. Vidal easily strode through a shoestring tackle and broke loose down the left sideline for the score. Vidal could still be FLEX-viable against the Eagles next week if RB Omarion Hampton (ankle) returns from injured reserve.
