Austin Ekeler rushed for 36 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries in Monday night’s win over the Broncos. He added 10 catches for 47 yards on a team-high 16 targets.
Fantasy Impact: After a slow start to the season, Ekeler has started to heat up the last three weeks. The numbers aren’t eye-popping, but the usage is great to see, particularly the 16 targets. Justin Herbert has relied on the short game while recovering from a rib injury, so expect Ekeler to continue to get a handful of targets each week. A matchup with the Seahawks next week could provide top-5 RB potential.
