Former Ravens running back JK Dobbins is set to join the Los Angeles Chargers on a one-year deal. The 25-year-old spent four years in Baltimore and he will now play under former Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman, who recently joined LA in the same role. Dobbins suffered a season-ending Achilles tear in the 2023 season opener against the Houston Texans, managing only eight carries for 22 yards before his campaign was cut short.

Dobbins reportedly travelled west to visit the Los Angeles Chargers, rather than the Chiefs.

Aaron Rodgers undervalued?Tom Brady overrated?Fantasy football is back, but it's a whole new world

www.dailymail.co.uk, August 14, 2022
The NFL is back, and with it, the 2022 fantasy football season. For all of the rumors surrounding the demise of the running back, many of whom now post snaps in teams' continuing attempts to minimize injuries, many top fantasy players can still be found at the position. Even fantasy football novices will find value in Jonathan Taylor, who had 92 touches in the red zone in 2021, or Carolina Panthers quarterback Christian McCaffrey, who ranks among the top players in the game when healthy. Tom Brady has returned from a short absence, but that doesn't mean fantasy enthusiasts will be able to expect the same show. Nevertheless, Aaron Rogers is somehow undervalued despite winning multiple MVPs and Deebo Samuel's return to his first fantasy season in 2021.
