Chargers Officially Place Omarion Hampton on Injured Reserve on Wednesday
Omarion Hampton (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. In a corresponding move, Kimani Vidal was called up from the practice squad to the active roster. The Bolts also signed veteran pass-catching back Nyheim Hines to the practice squad. An ankle injury suffered in the Week 5 loss to the Washington Commanders is going to keep Hampton out for at least four games. The 22-year-old needs to be stashed in all fantasy formats in the meantime, though, as he should return to bell-cow duties when he's healthy. Heading into Week 6 against the Miami Dolphins, Vidal and Haskins figure to split the backfield workload, making both short-term waiver-wire solutions. Hampton has averaged a healthy 4.8 yards per carry for 314 yards and two touchdowns on the ground for L.A. in his first five NFL games.
