Kimani VidalLAC
Kimani Vidal is the true handcuff to Omarion Hampton in the Chargers backfield, not Keaton Mitchell. Vidal's 2025 season showed he gets the job done including on passing downs, making him a close to ideal backup. At 5-foot-8, 213 pounds, Vidal is much better built to withstand volume than Mitchell (5-8, 179) and is much better on passing downs. Mitchell is neither trustworthy in blitz pickup nor as a pass catcher. At ADP RB61, Vidal is positioned as the clear RB2 option.
