STACKED’s take

Positive signalSleeper

Vidal leads Chargers backfield in snaps and routes as Hampton's role collapses week-to-week.

Los Angeles Chargers RB rostered in 23% of leagues; led Chargers in snaps and routes run last week despite Hampton leading in carries (14 to Vidal's 8). Vidal has posted back-to-back double-digit fantasy point finishes (RB26, RB21). Hampton's role is collapsing: started season at 75% early-down snaps, 18.8% third-down snaps, 40% two-minute drill snaps; in week five, those shares dropped to 43.6% early-down, zero third-down, zero two-minute drill snaps. Vidal's snap and route-running leadership signals growing opportunity in Chargers backfield.
