The Los Angeles Chargers are hopeful that running back J.K. Dobbins will return for their upcoming game against the New England Patriots. With Gus Edwards sidelined due to an ankle injury, Dobbins is expected to lead the backfield alongside Kimani Vidal and Hassan Haskins. However, expectations for a heavy workload should be tempered as Dobbins comes back from a four-week absence.
- J.K. Dobbins is likely to return from injury this week.
- Gus Edwards' absence opens up opportunities for Dobbins and other backs.
