Omarion Hampton questionable to play on Sunday night

Our Summary

The Los Angeles Chargers are evaluating the availability of running back Omarion Hampton for their playoff opener against the New England Patriots, with his status remaining uncertain until closer to Sunday night's kickoff. Hampton is currently listed as questionable due to an ankle injury that prevented him from participating in practice on Wednesday and Thursday. However, he resumed practice on Friday and expressed his intention to play in the upcoming game. During the regular season, Hampton recorded 124 carries for 545 yards and scored four touchdowns.

In addition to Hampton, the Chargers have several other players listed as questionable, including tackle Austin Deculus (oblique), edge rusher Bud Dupree (hamstring), tight end Tucker Fisk (ankle), safety Elijah Molden (hamstring), and linebacker Del’Shawn Phillips.
