Mitchell offers big-play upside in ancillary role; competing for RB2 with Vidal in McDaniel's scheme.

Keaton Mitchell landed with the Chargers this offseason and should be solid competition for Kimani Vidal for the RB2 role. The source projects him at RB62 (65.0 FPTS) versus his ECR of RB50 (-12 differential). Mitchell flashed with big-play ability in his short career with the Ravens last season. With only 68 touches, he posted a 10.2% explosive run rate and a respectable 1.37 yards per route run. The source notes he likely won't have ton of bankable standalone value week-to-week with the Bolts but will offer flashy big plays for Mike McDaniel's offense when called upon in 2026, and wouldn't be surprised if he works his way into an ancillary role.
