Los Angeles Chargers’ Austin Ekeler RB: NFL Fantasy Data & Stats Speculations 2022
Player Outlook
Austin Ekeler, a running back RB for the Los Angeles Chargers, is looking to establish himself in the NFL once more this season after having a good 2021 campaign. With QB Justin Herbert at the helm, the five-year veteran, who scored 20 total touchdowns last season (12 runnings and 8 receiving), hopes to guide the Chargers to a victorious 2022 campaign.
With 911 rushing yards on 206 carries last season, the top running back set new career highs. He is currently 27 years old, so some regression may be expected. This season, there is a lot of competition at running back as six of them made it into the top-10 ranks in the ADP report.

In fantasy football, Austin Ekeler is putting up strong numbers. Due to his participation in the passing game, he has much better potential in any kind of points per reception league. He shared the league lead in targets with 94. Ekeler enjoys playing fantasy football a lot and plays the game like he’s drafting himself.
A momentous year is coming for Austin Ekeler. The Chargers will likely aim to limit his playing time, but we don’t believe it will have a negative impact on his fantasy worth because of how limited he is.
"Austin Ekeler will likely play fewer snaps this season… He is always telling the reporters after games his body hurts and that he won't last in this league without someone helping him out." –@Gmanzano24
