Keaton Mitchell's Status Threatens Chargers RB Depth | Los Angeles Chargers News

Chargers’ season opener against the Cardinals looms with a major question mark at running back: Keaton Mitchell, their electric but injury-prone star, is sidelined heading into Week 1 after missing six practices. While not yet placed on IR, his availability is uncertain, adding pressure to Omarion Hampton and Kimani Vidal. The team’s depth is already tested — Denzel Perryman’s season-ending injury and Tyler Biadasz’s ACL tear compound the concern. Mitchell’s career stats are elite when healthy — averaging over six yards per carry — but his history of missed games (only 26 of 51 games played) makes this a critical moment for the Chargers’ playoff hopes.
