The Los Angeles Chargers elected to make two big moves this offseason to upgrade their running game. Their first came by signing former Pittsburgh Steelers RB Najee Harris, and later in the offseason, used their first round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft on North Carolina RB Omarion Hampton.
A recent A to Z Sports article shared bold predictions for each team in the AFC West ahead of the upcoming season. For the Chargers, Hampton and Harris are predicted to form a dynamic duo and accomplish something that would bring a massive smile to Jim Harbaugh's face.
Chargers RB duo of Najee Harris and Omarion Hampton has been predicted to accomplish an impressive feat in 2025
"Hot Take: Najee Harris and Omarion Hampton combine for over 1,800 rushing yards in 2025
The Chargers elected to give their RB room a complete makeover this offseason. They are going from JK Dobbins and Gus Edwards leading their rushing attack to Najee Harris and their 2025 first-round pick, Omarion Hampton. Dobbins and Edwards combined for over 1,200 yards on the ground together last season, but I think the expectations are much higher for Harris and Hampton. Harris has rushed for over 1,000 yards in each of his first four seasons in the NFL, and the last two years, he has even done so with a solid running mate also being in the fold. I think Harris will lead the team in carries, with Hampton being mixed into their game plan more and more as the year goes on. We all know Jim Harbaugh is gonna want the run game to be the engine of his offense, and with an elite offensive line in place, the sky is the limit for their rushing attack."
Big fan of this take. Just makes a ton of sense when you consider the baseline production that Najee Harris created on a yearly basis for the Pittsburgh Steelers and the upside of rookie Omarion Hampton.
Not to mention, Chargers offensive coordinator Greg Roman's offenses, for better or for worse, have always relied heavily on their running game. Roman was the OC for the Baltimore Ravens from 2019-2022. In that span, Baltimore ran for over 3,000 yards as a team twice and over 2,400 yards in every one of them. That did include the dual-threat action of Lamar Jackson, but even a portion of that production would make this take come to fruition. I'm on board! – Adam Holt
