Zander Horvath
RB -
Week 16 Outlook
Availability
The New Orleans Saints released FB Zander Horvath.
Fantasy Impact
Horvath signed with New Orleans back in March. He'll look to land a different opportunity with another team.
According to Daniel Popper of The Athletic, seventh-round rookie FB Zander Horvath is running with the Los Angeles Chargers' first team in practice.
Fantasy Impact
Horvath has quickly become a fan favorite among the Chargers' faithful, being a seventh-round pick out of Purdue. Chargers' offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi said they're still in the "discovery process" with Horvath, who was an RB in college, as they transition him more to a FB role. At Purdue, Horvath showed an ability to work in both phases of the offense at 6-foot-3 and 230 pounds. In fantasy, it might not translate to success for Horvath, but if the Chargers get more creative with their running game it could mean more opportunities for both RBs Austin Ekeler and rookie Isaiah Spiller.
The Los Angeles Chargers have selected RB/FB Zander Horvath with the No. 260 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact
Horvath has no fantasy value as he will mainly play fullback for the Chargers. With Austin Ekeler and Isaiah Spiller clearly the top two running backs on the team, Horvath has no fantasy value.
