The Los Angeles Chargers officially re-signed exclusive-rights free-agent running back Kimani Vidal to an undisclosed one-year deal, according to Howard Balzer of Cardinals Wire.

Relatively Unproven Jadarian Price Could Shine in a Featured Role

Woody Marks Likely to Settle into a Complementary Role

Houston Texans running back Woody Marks handled more than 230 opportunities as a rookie, the third-highest total of any first-year player in his class, despite being the ninth running back selected in the 2025 NFL Draft.

2026 NFL Mock Draft: Landing Spots For the Top 10 Running Back Prospects
