Yahoo Sports NFL on Omarion Hampton

Hampton poised for breakout under McDaniel's system with healthy OL support.

Rookie running back Omarion Hampton, the 2025 first-round pick from North Carolina, got off to a good start with a 128-yard rushing performance against the Giants in Week 4 before sustaining a fractured ankle that sidelined him for two months. In his sophomore season, he should be running behind a far better offensive line and playing for offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who has a history of coaching running backs to breakout seasons. De'Von Achane ran for 1,350 yards and caught 67 passes under McDaniel in Miami last season; if Hampton can come close to that, he'll be a popular fantasy pickup.
