Who Should I Start? James Conner or Kimani Vidal

Tuesday, November 10, 5:02 AM

Los Angeles Chargers running back Kimani Vidal continues to mix into the team's backfield alongside Omarion Hampton and Keaton Mitchell. Vidal has shown some big-play potential and gets enough passing-down work to be a deep league option, even though his workload is unpredictable. In Week 9, after the bye, Vidal played 28 snaps (39%), which was just one fewer than Hampton and 10 more than Mitchell. He took seven carries for 30 yards and added a six-yard reception. He has at least seven carries in four straight games and is averaging a healthy 4.5 yards per carry on the season. He has one rushing touchdown and one receiving touchdown, along with 10 catches for 56 yards. He's not getting enough volume to be a regular starter, but he's definitely still in the mix for the Bolts, who are desperate for any sort of spark on offense. Vidal has enough potential to be a hold or a stash in deep leagues, in case he gets more work down the line, but he's hard to start in most formats in Week 10 against the Ravens.
