        Chargers Add Nyheim Hines To Injury-Depleted Backfield

        The Chargers are signing RB Nyheim Hines to their practice squad. Hines hasn't played a regular-season snap since suffering a knee injury in a jet ski accident in 2023. He turns 29 next week. And, even before that injury, he was just a change-of-pace back, never topping 89 carries in an NFL season. The Chargers, of course, are without RB Omarion Hampton for at least the next four games -- after losing RB Najee Harris for the season. Hassan Haskins and Kimani Vidal lead the most uninspiring RB room in the league. Hines was with the Chargers during training camp this season, but we'd still consider him a long shot to make a fantasy impact. He can stay on the waiver wire. If the Chargers are done adding to their backfield, it'd be good news for the upside on Haskins and Vidal.
