Free-agent RB J.K. Dobbins (Chargers) received an unrestricted tender from the Los Angeles Chargers on Tuesday, April 29, according to the NFL transaction wire. Dobbins would count against the compensatory formula should he sign with a team by the start of training camp in July, but the Chargers will receive exclusive negotiating rights for him if Dobbins doesn't ink with another franchise by the deadline.
Huddle Up: From Dobbins' perspective, he has an option to accept a reserve role behind RBs Najee Harris and Omarion Hampton and take the paycheck, or the veteran can seek a deal with a team that may offer him a larger role. Fantasy gamers should casually keep tabs on this situation, and he's of no immediate use if Dobbins indeed returns to LA.

Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (ankle) is active for the wild-card game against the Houston Texans on Saturday, Jan. 11.
Huddle Up: Dobbins has been a strong fantasy football asset all year long, but he's a bit shakier of a lineup option this week considering Houston gave up the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to running backs in 2024.

Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (ankle) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 9, and is listed as questionable for the Wild Card playoff game.
Huddle Up: Dobbins was a limited participant in all three practices, so fantasy players should monitor the situation to see if he will be able to play this week. He probably will see a majority of the carries if he plays and can be at least a flex option in leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (ankle) was limited during practice Wednesday, Jan. 8.
Huddle Up: Dobbins seems to have a decent chance to play in the playoff game, but fantasy players will know more in the next day or two. He likely will receive most of the carries in the running game if he plays and can be a starting option in fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (ankle) was limited at practice Tuesday, Jan. 7.
Huddle Up: Dobbins avoided an injury after a scary tackle but it's no surprise he's on the injury report. The Houston Texans were solid against the run during the regular season, but Dobbins' workload and success this season make him a solid starting option.

Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins ran 18 times for a game-high 63 yards in Week 18 against the Las Vegas Raiders, while adding three receptions for 12 yards on three targets.
Huddle Up: Dobbins was handling a majority of the touches, while Hassan Haskins was the primary backup. Dobbins could be a sneaky RB1 in postseason fantasy leagues, especially if the Chargers can win on the road Saturday in the wild-card round in Houston.

Los Angeles Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins faces the Las Vegas Raiders in the season finale, and Dobbins ran for 135 yards and a touchdown against the Raiders back in Week 1.
Huddle Up: Dobbins ran the ball 19 times in his return from injury last week, so the Chargers seem comfortable giving him a heavy workload. Don't be surprised if he ends his season the way it began with a big game against the Raiders, especially if the Pittsburgh Steelers lose Saturday and the No. 5 seed is up for grabs.
