Omarion Hampton, the Los Angeles Chargers' second-year running back, has totaled 309 rushing yards on 89 carries (3.5 yards per attempt) through seven games in the 2026 season, with three touchdowns. He operates in a committee alongside Kimani Vidal and Keaton Mitchell, limiting his touches as the team sits at 0-7 with one of the league's least productive offenses. Hampton has posted 45 or fewer rushing yards in four of his last five outings, lost two fumbles, and seen his snap share decline, including just 18 offensive snaps in Week 8. The Chargers face a Texans defense in Week 9 that has been stingy against the run, while Hampton's prior ankle injury history adds some uncertainty to his availability over the remaining schedule.
