Chargers RB Justin Jackson expected to 'step in and replace' Austin Ekeler (COVID-19) as team's starter in Sunday's Week 16 game vs the Houston Texans. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
With Ekeler out of the lineup, Jackson is anticipated to lead a backfield that is going up against a Houston run defense that allows the fifth-most points to opposing RBs this season. Jackson can be confidently considered as a high-end RB2 option with plenty of opportunity for significant usage in your fantasy lineups this week.
