STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Hampton ranked RB8 with 4.4 YPC pace; breakout potential under McDaniel.

Hampton is ranked eighth and showed strong efficiency as a rookie, averaging 4.4 yards per carry in nine games (six starts) with a pace of nearly 1,500 scrimmage yards and over 1,000 rushing yards. An ankle injury limited him to about half the season and diminished snap count upon return. If he stays healthy in 2026, he'd be a solid RB1 option. New Chargers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel could elevate his ceiling after helping De'Von Achane put together a career year in Miami.
