Hampton's elite Week 1-4 efficiency and McDaniel's RB-friendly scheme suggest massive 2026 upside.

Hampton's rookie season was derailed by ankle injury in Week 5, but in Weeks 1-4 he averaged 17 touches and 95 total yards as RB13 in fantasy points per game with elite efficiency metrics: 7.4% explosive run rate, 19% missed tackle rate, and 2.54 yards after contact per attempt (would have ranked 4th, 10th, and 8th respectively if sustained). He also contributed through the air with 10.1% target share and 27.5 receiving yards per game, positioning him as Mike McDaniel's possible bellcow with rock-solid RB1 status and massive upside in 2026.
