Keaton Mitchell, if healthy, should be a factor in the Chargers offense as a speedy change-of-pace back behind No. 1 running back Omarion Hampton. Mike McDaniel specifically highlighted Mitchell's value in the passing game, where he hasn't been able to fully showcase his abilities in his career. McDaniel said Mitchell "is as dynamic as they come with the ball in his hands in space" and "is a matchup issue for every defense," with "a lot of pass-game value that he hasn't been able to really represent in his career, but it's showing so far in camp." Mitchell will complement Hampton and Kimani Vidal in the backfield.
