Omarion Hampton Week 6 Outlook - Chargers at Chiefs

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 15th 2026, 1:35pm EDT

I can't overstate how much I absolutely hate everything that Mike McDaniel is doing. Last week, Hampton led the team with 41.2% of the rushing share while playing the third-fewest snaps (31.7%) for the backfield. Hampton is being utilized as an early down option only, as he had only two routes last week. Hampton still has a solid 10.8% explosive run rate and 2.45 yards after contact per attempt, but that doesn't seem to matter to the Bolts' offensive coordinator. Sit Hampton in a bad rushing matchup. Kansas City has limited rushers to the eighth-lowest rushing success rate, the fewest yards before contact per attempt, and the third-lowest missed tackle rate.
