BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 15% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: In the ever-unpredictable world of fantasy football, we're like treasure hunters, always on the lookout for those running backs who are just a stone's throw away from fantasy stardom. Joshua Kelley, despite a somewhat underwhelming show during Austin Ekeler's hiatus, remains a solid bet in most fantasy leagues.
Take a trip down memory lane to Week 7 against the Chiefs. That's when Kelley pulled out a surprisingly nifty 75 yards from just seven carries. His receiving skills? Well, let's just say they're still a work in progress. Fast forward to Week 11, and Kelley's role was more modest, with only six carries for 13 yards. Yet, he's undeniably carved out his niche as the go-to guy if anything sidelines Ekeler.

Meanwhile, the Chargers, under the guidance of Kellen Moore, are still trying to hit the right notes and claw their way into the AFC playoff scene. Kelley isn't the guy you'd bet your house on just yet, but he's someone to keep on your radar. While we don't want to root for injuries, we must always be prepared for them just in case. If something should happen to Ekeler, then Kelley would become a near must-start.
