Larry Rountree III Fantasy

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Larry Rountree III is a healthy scratch for Sunday's meeting with the Denver Broncos. He played 19 snaps last week, his most since Week 4, but had just two carries for five yards. Justin Jackson should serve as the backup to Austin Ekeler, but this is really a one-man backfield at this point.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Larry Rountree III received five carries in a Week 10 loss versus the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie only picked up 10 yards, but was able to find the end zone for a one-yard touchdown in the second quarter. Rountree drew a lot of hype during the preseason and continues to be featured as the primary backup to Austin Ekeler. Despite that, Ekeler will continue to see the vast majority of snaps out of the backfield. Even if Ekeler were to miss time in the future, Rountree would still have veteran Justin Jackson and Joshua Kelley to compete with for snaps. A name to remember in dynasty leagues, Rountree can remain on the waiver wire in redraft leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Larry Rountree III is a healthy scratch for the team's Week 6 game against Baltimore. The sixth-round pick had 11 carries in Week 4 but only played on special teams last week against Cleveland, taking zero offensive snaps for the first time this season. Rountree is clearly out of the running back rotation in Los Angeles and can safely be cut in redraft leagues. Justin Jackson should serve as the primary backup to Austin Ekeler against the Ravens.
