The Los Angeles Chargers will visit the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 11. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding RB Kimani Vidal.
Is Kimani Vidal Playing in Week 11?
Vidal is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Chargers’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Vidal in Week 11?
The script on Sunday night fed into the Kimani Vidal profile and he pounded away. In the win over the Steelers, the 2024 sixth-round pick picked up 95 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries. He had his moments of explosion (four runs of 10+ yards) and struggled at other times, but this is clearly his backfield and, given the desire for balance, I think projecting 17+ touches in games where LA is favored makes plenty of sense.
We can cross the Omarion Hampton bridge when we get to it, but right now, you have a locked-in RB2 who is facing the fifth-worst red zone defense in the league.
