Who Should I Start? Hassan Haskins or Will Shipley

Wednesday, September 24, 9:30 AM

Los Angeles Chargers running back Hassan Haskins isn't expected to see a significant role increase despite recent injuries in the backfield. Haskins has yet to log a touch in 2025 and has primarily operated as the RB3 behind rookie Omarion Hampton and veteran Najee Harris. With Harris suffering a torn Achilles in Week 3's win over the Denver Broncos, the RB2 job is now up for grabs. Second-year back Kimani Vidal, who has been a healthy scratch through the first three games, could push for that role. Vidal filled in effectively last season when J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards were sidelined, making him the more likely candidate to step into the rotation. Haskins remains most valuable to the Chargers on special teams, leaving him without meaningful fantasy appeal.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Will Shipley (oblique) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Shipley injured his oblique in the Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys and did not play in Weeks 2 or 3. However, with a return to a full practice on Wednesday, the 23-year-old looks to be on track to play in a Week 4 tilt on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Since he was injured, the Eagles acquired RB Tank Bigsby from the Jacksonville Jaguars, but Bigsby is still learning the offense and did not have a snap on offense in the Week 3 win over the Los Angeles Rams. If Shipley returns to action this Sunday, he'll most likely be sprinkled in alongside AJ Dillon in a change-of-pace role behind starter Saquon Barkley. It's more bad news for Bigsby, whose fantasy value has tanked with the trade to Philadelphia.
