Chargers RB Omarion Hampton (ankle) designated to return

Pro Football Talk

Nov 25, 2025 · 3:22 PM EST

Chargers rookie running back Omarion Hampton is on his way back to the lineup.

Head coach Jim Harbaugh told reporters on Tuesday that the team will designate Hampton for return from injured reserve. Hampton has been out since suffering an ankle injury in Week 5.

Fantasy Impact:

Hampton will be able to practice for the next 21 days and can be activated at any point in that window. The Chargers will play the Raiders this Sunday. This will be worth monitoring for Hampton fantasy owners to see if he'll be back this week. If the full window is used, he would return for Week 16. It's possible if he returns this week, he'll split the work with Vidal, but could at least be a flex option in a nice matchup.

Jim Harbaugh said he doesn’t think the Chargers will open the window for running back Omarion Hampton to return from IR until after the Week 12 bye.

Fantasy Impact:

Hampton was injured back in Week 5 but the reports all along have said he wouldn't be back when first eligible, which would have been this week. We at least have some sort of timetable to go on and Week 13 is, of course, down the stretch of the fantasy regular season. Vidal should be the team's lead back until Hampton returns, and even after that maybe Hampton is eased back into action.

Chargers Hassan Haskins (hamstring) doubtful for Week 8

Jim Harbaugh said RB Hassan Haskins (hamstring) is doubtful for Thursday night vs. Vikings.

Related players: Kimani Vidal, Nyheim Hines, Amar Johnson

Fantasy Impact:

With no Haskins Vidal stands to get a big workload in Week 8, which is a Thursday night game against the Vikings. Hines looks to be the RB2 at this point, but he's played just one snap in each of the last two weeks.

Chargers Beat: Kimani Vidal could be team's answer at RB

The Athletic

Oct 14, 2025 · 11:04 AM EDT

Kimani Vidal’s performance Sunday could change how the Chargers approach the running back market ahead of November’s trade deadline. Omarion Hampton must miss at least three more games. When Hampton does return, the Chargers will need a second back to pair with him.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said the Chargers were going to be in the market for a running back with Najee Harris out for the season. But the author went on to say Vidal's performance may change the team's approach. The story added Vidal will likely need to string together more performances like last week. Looking like the odd man out to start the year, Vidal was convinced to sign with the practice squad. The story added Vidal's also improved in pass protection, making him a possible option for passing situations and third down snaps, even when Hampton returns.
