Yahoo Fantasy Football on Keaton Mitchell

Mitchell excels on outside zone attempts; could benefit from edge-attack scheme vs. KC.

Keaton Mitchell has been capable of generating explosive plays but lacks down-to-down consistency in Los Angeles's struggling running game. On outside zone attempts, Mitchell (4.37 40-yard time) has accumulated 189 yards on 38 attempts with success rates well above Omarion Hampton's, and his usage on these concepts has reduced Justin Herbert's yards needed for a first down to 7.1. Against Kansas City in Week 7, Mitchell could be a beneficiary if the Chargers employ outside zone concepts to attack the defensive edge, similar to how Jonathan Taylor and Ashton Jeanty found success against Steve Spagnuolo's defense.
