J.K. Dobbins

J.K. Dobbins rushed 14 times for 40 yards in the Chargers’ Week 7 loss to the Cardinals, adding 26 yards on three receptions.

The Chargers managed just 2.7 yards per carry as a team against a Cardinals defense that had allowed 153 yards on the ground per game during the first six weeks of the 2024 regular season. With Dobbins struggling to find running room, the Chargers turned to the air as quarterback Justin Herbert attempted a season-high 39 passes. Even so, Dobbins remained the clear and away top running back with Gus Edwards on injured reserve, meaning we should see better fantasy days ahead for the oft injured veteran. Dobbins and the Chargers get a beautiful on-paper matchup against a Saints defense allowing the most yards before contact per rush attempt in the league in Week 8.
