Omarion Hampton, Chargers (vs. Cardinals). He's in a situation conducive to a major breakthrough, with limited competition behind him in the banged-up Keaton Mitchell and Kimani Vidal, and a running back-friendly offensive coordinator in Mike McDaniel. Hampton should see a massive workload in this home game which featured the week's widest opening spread (-10), while facing a defense that was the fourth-worst against the position in 2025. The Cardinals allowed 11 games of 15-plus fantasy points to running backs all of last season, and five of those came in the final six weeks alone.

Hampton set for massive workload against fourth-worst RB defense; breakthrough potential.

Hampton is in a situation conducive to a major breakthrough in Week 1 for the Chargers at home against the Cardinals. He has limited competition behind him with Keaton Mitchell and Kimani Vidal both banged up, and operates under running back-friendly offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel. Hampton should see a massive workload in this home game which featured the week's widest opening spread (-10), while facing a defense that was the fourth-worst against running backs in 2025. The Cardinals allowed 11 games of 15-plus fantasy points to running backs all of last season, with five of those coming in the final six weeks alone.
