"Harris signed with the Chargers after spending his first four seasons in Pittsburgh. He is as durable as they come, as he's the only tailback who has appeared in 100% of his team's games over the past four seasons. He has yet to finish a season lower than seventh in the league in carries (255-plus each season), but that figures to change this season with first-round rookie Omarion Hampton likely to handle lead-back duties in Los Angeles. Harris also figures to be very limited as a receiver, as Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman have a long history of low RB usage in the pass game, in addition to the fact Harris has finished outside the top 20 RBs in targets each of the past two seasons. Harris has ranked in the 20-to-30 range in fantasy PPG each of the past three seasons, but even if he splits carries with Hampton, he'll be hard-pressed to produce consistent flex numbers."


"At 6-foot, 221 pounds, Hampton is smaller than Harris but larger than most NFL lead backs, and with 4.46 combine speed to boot. It may not be long before he challenges Harris for the starting job, although the veteran almost certainly would retain a role in that scenario, if only for pass blocking and to help keep Hampton fresh. Harris signed a one-year, $5.25 million contract in March, with all of that money guaranteed and another $4 million available via incentives. Compared to other RBs, that can either be viewed as low-end-starter money or the top of the market for backups."

"Hill is recovering from a late-season left ACL tear suffered last December, making it no guarantee that he's ready for the start of training camp either. The 34-year-old carries a cap hit of nearly $18 million for 2025, including a non-guaranteed $10 million base salary, so he also still seems a likely candidate to have his contract restructured or become a cap casualty. With both Hill and Moreau sidelined, Juwan Johnson, who inked a three-year extension with New Orleans in March, will take first-team TE reps and get to build chemistry with both Tyler Shough and Spencer Rattler during the offseason program. Jake Haener (oblique) also is part of this team's three-way quarterback competition, but he may miss the remainder of offseason activities due to a recent injury."
