Omarion Hampton Officially Activated From Injured Reserve
The Los Angeles Chargers officially activated running backs Omarion Hampton (ankle) and Hassan Haskins (hamstring) from Injured Reserve and onto the 53-man active roster for Monday night's game against the visiting Philadelphia Eagles. Hampton was considered questionable to return from IR. The 22-year-old first-rounder will be active for the first time since fracturing his left ankle back in Week 5. Before getting hurt, Hampton had 66 rushing attempts for 314 yards (4.8 yards per carry) and two rushing touchdowns in his first five NFL games, adding 20 receptions for 136 yards. The North Carolina alum should eventually be the Bolts' lead back, but after his long layoff, the Chargers are expected to go with more of a timeshare between Hampton and Kimani Vidal on Monday night. Hampton will be more of a shaky RB3/flex in fantasy football against a tough Eagles defense in his return to the gridiron.
