Who Should I Start? Keaton Mitchell or RJ Harvey

Wednesday, September 30, 3:43 PM

Los Angeles Chargers running back Keaton Mitchell (ankle) is on the team's injury report for Week 4 and was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Mitchell is now in question for the Week 4 game this Sunday in Seattle against the Seahawks after he was spotted wearing a walking boot on his left leg after he injured his ankle in Wednesday's practice. The good news is that the 24-year-old thinks he avoided a serious injury, but it does not mean that he will be active this weekend. We will keep a close eye on Mitchell's status over the next couple of days. If he is unable to get the green light to play against the Seahawks, Kimani Vidal would have flex appeal as the RB2 behind starter Omarion Hampton. Mitchell had his best game in a Chargers uniform in the Week 3 loss to the Buffalo Bills, carrying the ball eight times for 52 yards while catching all three of his targets for a loss of five yards. He has been extremely efficient, averaging 5.0 yards per carry on 17 rushing attempts through three games for a Chargers offense still looking for answers. If Mitchell is active this weekend, he should be considered a low-upside RB3/flex against a tough Seahawks defense.
