Fantasy Impact:

Ballage signed with the Jets earlier this season but was quickly cut ahead of Week 5 now that Le’Veon Bell is likely returning from IR. The Chargers lost Austin Ekeler in Week 4 to a hamstring injury, and he’ll be out 4-6 weeks, so Ballage could provide some insurance at the running back position. It’ll likely be a combination of Joshua Kelley and Justin Jackson out of the backfield for the Chargers while Ekeler is out.
