Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins Out Week 13, to "miss some time"

Ian Rapoport

Nov 27 · 9:18 AM EST

Chargers standout RB JK Dobbins suffered a knee sprain in Monday’s game that will cause him to miss some time, sources say.

He’s out this week against the Falcons and up in the air after that. Gus Edwards is his backup.

Related Players: Kimani Vidal, Hassan Haskins

Fantasy Impact:

Vidal was a healthy scratch in Week 12, so signs are pointing up for Edwards' usage this coming week. He should be considered a high-end RB3 while Vidal can't be trusted after spending Monday Night on the sidelines.

LAC RB Gus Edwards - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs Denver Broncos

When the Chargers fell behind early, it was game over for Gus Edwards. Kimani Vidal saw more work as Los Angeles were playing catch-up. Unfortunately, that's the nature of playing Edwards. He finished with 8 carries for 23 yards against a defense that had been hemorrhaging yards on the ground of late.

It has been easier to run on Denver this season, so in theory this should be a good spot for Edwards. Denver is 23rd aFPA against running backs so it's not awful. Edwards is a back-end RB3 or flex option and you'll have to hope he scores a touchdown.
