Isaiah Spiller Could Miss Week 1
2 years agoLos Angeles Chargers rookie running back Isaiah Spiller (ankle) will miss the final preseason game this week against the New Orleans Saints on Friday, and there is "a chance" that he'll also miss the Week 1 regular season opener against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders, according to head coach Brandon Staley. The 21-year-old has been a popular target in dynasty/keeper leagues, but he can probably be left to the waiver wire in most redraft leagues to start the year, as he could wind up fourth on the RB depth chart behind Austin Ekeler, Joshua Kelley and Larry Rountree III. However, the fourth-rounder has plenty of long-term upside and could easily become Ekeler's primary backup in 2022 before all is said and done.
