Since his return, Hampton has had a 33.8% snap rate, a 17.6% route share, and only a 5.5% target share. He has averaged 15.5 touches and 66 total yards as the Bolts' goal-line back. In those two games, Hampton has had six red zone rushing attempts versus Kimani Vidal's one. Hampton has looked like a shell of himself, though, with an 11% missed tackle rate and 1.25 yards after contact per attempt. He's a middling flex play again this week. Since Week 11, Dallas's run defense has been beastly, giving up the second-fewest rushing yards per game, the 11th-fewest yards after contact per attempt, the ninth-fewest yards before contact per attempt, and the 13th-lowest rushing success rate.

In the backfield, Kimani Vidal dominated the snaps at 64% over Omarion Hampton (36%). Hampton led the way with 15 carries for 61 yards (including a 26-yard burst). The rookie also played more on third downs than the previous week and he seized the red-zone work for the second straight game.

I'd expect the team to continue to lean on Hampton in what will be his third game back from IR in Week 16 versus Dallas.

He has 15-plus touches in back-to-back games.

In the last two games, the Chargers have a -9% pass rate over expectation. Weeks 1-13: +4%.

If Dallas doesn't have Quinnen Williams...wheels up for the Chargers' rushing attack.
