In Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, Chargers RB Austin Ekeler ran for 45 yards on 14 carries and had 1 reception for 1 yard. Despite the low production, Ekeler's playing time remained consistent and his rushing efficiency improved compared to the previous game. The Chiefs have a solid defense overall but struggle against the run. Moving forward, Ekeler is expected to bounce back, especially in the receiving game. However, his performance in the upcoming Week 8 matchup against the Bears will be closely monitored.
