Hampton drew 9 carries but did take them for 45 yards and a TD. Kimani Vidal rushed five times for 25 yards. Both Mitchell (6) and Vidal (3) beat Hampton's 2 targets.

Chargers RB Keaton Mitchell (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 4 injury report. He was in a walking boot early in the week but was a full participant in practice by Friday. Mitchell is coming off season highs last week in playing time and touches and could be working himself into a fantasy-viable role. But he can’t yet be trusted in Week 4 lineups.
