Hefty pass-catching role in loss Hampton rushed 14 times for 29 yards and a touchdown and brought in all eight targets for 31 yards in the Chargers' 20-16 loss to the Texans on Saturday.

Impact As his final line suggests, Hampton repeatedly ran into a proverbial brick wall against the Texans' nearly impenetrable front. However the rookie finished with a team-high reception total while also co-leading the Chargers in targets, and he gave his day a serious boost by recording a five-yard touchdown run with just under four minutes remaining. Hampton's average of 2.1 yards per carry was a new career low, and he's stuck with another unenviable matchup in a Week 18 road clash against the Broncos.

Significant workload in win Hampton carried the ball 16 times for 85 yards and a touchdown in the 34-17 win over the Cowboys on Sunday. He also caught one reception for 10 yards as well.

Impact Hampton got a significant workload after Kimani Vidal left the contest due to a neck injury. Head coach Jim Harbaugh declined to give an update on the status of Vidal, but if he's out, Hampton could see another game with significant volume as the Chargers attempt to limit a fearsome Houston pass rush come Week 17. The rookie has double-digit carries in each of the past three weeks since returning from a long-term ankle injury, but he could see a bump in targets too given Hampton had 17 receptions early in the season before the emergence of Vidal.

Serves as lead back in win Hampton rushed 15 times for 61 yards and brought in his only target for four yards in the Chargers' 16-13 win over the Chiefs on Sunday.

Impact Hampton outpaced backfield mate Kimani Vidal by three carries and 28 rushing yards, while also recording a game-long 26-yard run. The rookie upped his workload by one over that of his Week 14 return from an ankle injury, but the workload between both backs may vary week to week down the stretch as head coach Jim Harbaugh looks to keep both players fresh.

Chargers come through with a mythic win over Eagles, fueled by more heroics from QB Justin Herbert

The legend of the Los Angeles Chargers’ 22-19 overtime win against the Philadelphia Eagles will almost certainly outlast the reality

DECEMBER 9 • Associated Press

50/50 split in return Hampton (ankle) carried the ball 13 times for 56 yards and also caught both of his targets for 11 yards in the 22-19 overtime win over the Eagles on Monday.

Impact Kimani Vidal got the start, but Hampton quickly was brought back into the fold after missing the past seven games due to an ankle injury, finishing with an even distribution of the 30 touches from the backfield. It's unclear if that was a counter to Philadelphia's ferocious front seven, or if the duo of Vidal and Hampton will truly have an even split moving forward, but the rookie 2025 first-round pick did have the most explosive of the carries (long of 18 yards). Up next is another difficult matchup against a Kansas City defense fighting for their playoff lives.
