Joshua Kelley

Alright, fantasy junkies, strap in! My apologies for missing last week's column, but we will run this piece up until the first week of the fantasy playoffs. We're knee-deep in the NFL fantasy frenzy and Week 10's bringing the heat with many stars across the fantasy landscape sitting on a bye. This means your start/sit decisions might be a tad difficult and you might not have the luxury of stashing anyone away this week. Remember, mastering the art of the waiver wire is not just about being ... [Read More]

Los Angeles Chargers running back Joshua Kelley ran well in a Week 7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Kelley got seven carries, gaining 75 yards and scoring a long touchdown. Kelley was out-touched 14-7 by Austin Ekeler, but was able to significantly out-gain him, 75-45.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Joshua Kelley got the same number of carries as starter Austin Ekeler in Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins. Kelley ran the ball 16 times, gaining 91 yards and scoring a touchdown. He was targeted once in the passing game but was unable to make the catch. With Isaiah Spiller a healthy scratch, Kelley is the clear number two running back on the Bolts depth chart. He's worth rostering in most formats and would be an immediate starter if Ekeler were to miss ... [Read More]
