Austin Ekeler Starting Against Steelers
6 years agoLos Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler will get his second start of the season this week when he goes against Pittsburgh on Sunday night. Melvin Gordon is sidelined with a knee injury for at least a couple weeks, so Ekeler should get plenty of play in one of the most potent offenses in the league. While Ekeler is a bit small and didn't impress last time he got a start, expect a lot of the offense to run through him and depend on his playmaking ability. Ekeler is always primed for an explosion, and so he should be treated as a candidate for a huge week.
