According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport on NFL GameDay, Chargers RB Austin Ekeler is expected to get “significant carries” in his return vs. the Bills in Week 12. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Ekeler hasn’t played since Week 4 when he injured his hamstring. After almost two months on the sidelines, Ekeler seems ready to go and should see a good chunk of work against the Bills today. He likely won’t see a full workload, but half the snaps doesn’t seem out of the realm of possibility. It’s looking likely Kalen Ballage will be out, so the Chargers will have Ekeler, Troymaine Pope, and Joshua Kelley at running back on Sunday. Ekeler has the most upside of the bunch, but expectations should be tempered in his first game back in almost two months.
