Austin Ekeler, like many of the Chargers’ starters, was held out of preseason action in 2022. Ekeler will again be the primary back in a high-powered offense led by Justin Herbert.
Fantasy Impact: Ekeler currently ranks as the third running back in ECR, according to FantasyPros. Ekeler tallied 911 rushing yards and 12 rushing touchdowns on 206 attempts. The 27-year-old led all RBs in 2021 in receiving yards(647) and receiving touchdowns(8) and was tied for first with 94 targets. Ekeler’s role as one of Herbert’s primary pass catching options should slot the star RB into a top-5 finish again in 2022.
