Kimani Vidal
RB - Los Angeles Chargers
Availability
Kimani Vidal rushed the ball 14 times for 44 yards and caught 1-of-3 targets for 60 yards in Monday night's 22-19 OT win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
Fantasy Impact
It seemed like Vidal's workload was set to go down the drain with Omarion Hampton back in the lineup for the Chargers, but that wasn't the case on Monday night. He actually saw one more carry than the rookie and led the team in receiving yards with a single 60-yard catch. His workload will likely decrease as Hampton continues to ramp back up, however, so he can't be considered a reliable fantasy option at this point.
Kimani Vidal rushed for 126 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries in the Chargers 31-14 win over the Raiders. He caught his lone target for 11 yards.
Fantasy Impact
Vidal found the end zone on a 59-yard rush early in the third quarter to give the Chargers the lead. With Omarion Hampton (ankle) rumored to be close to a return, Vidal could return to the backup role as soon as Week 14 against the Eagles.
Kimani Vidal ran five times for 13 yards and caught both of his targets for -1 yards in the Chargers' 35-6 loss to the Jaguars.
Fantasy Impact
The Chargers' offense was completely shut down in this game, and Vidal was injured for part of it as well. With that said, there is little to take away from this performance, other than the fact that Vidal has successfully swapped bad and good performances for the past few weeks. By the looks of things, he will have a great performance once the Chargers come back from their bye against the Raiders, assuming Omarion Hampton is still out.
Chargers RB Kimani Vidal (thigh) has returned to the game.
Fantasy Impact
Vidal was listed as questionable after suffering a thigh injury. After being evaluated, he has returned and should resume his role as the primary running back against Jacksonville.
Chargers RB Kimani Vidal (thigh) is questionable to return Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Vidal tallied 11 rushing yards on three carries prior to the injury. Amar Johnson will likely see the bulk of the carries if Vidal is unable to return.
