2024 Fantasy Outlook
A fourth-round pick in 2022, Spiller saw a significant workload in only one game last season, turning 16 carries into 50 yards against the Raiders in Week 15. The Texas A&M product showed good balance and elusiveness in college, but he's gotten little chance so far in the NFL to show those traits. New Chargers offensive coordinator Greg Roman could find a role for him, but he brought Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins with him from the Ravens, which might not leave much work for anyone else in the backfield. Read Past Outlooks

ANALYSIS
Spiller inked with Las Vegas' practice squad mid-December, and while he didn't get a chance to make his debut with the team, the Raiders have opted to continue his development. The 2022 fourth-round pick will compete to lock down a depth role with the team for the 2025 campaign.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
If Joshua Kelley is to be displaced from his spot on the Chargers' depth chart as the backup to Austin Ekeler, then Spiller seems the player to do it. The 2022 fourth-round pick was a major bust as a rookie, failing to put any heat on Kelley despite Kelley not doing much either. It's possible Spiller was held back by his youth -- he turns 22 on Aug. 9 -- and if so there might remain hope that he'll make quick progress in his second NFL training camp. Kelley is a low bar to clear, even if we concede it's concerning that Spiller couldn't displace him last year. The Chargers haven't invested much else in depth behind Ekeler, who dominates the high-value touches and mostly leaves his backups with carries between the tackles and far from the goal line.
A fourth-round pick in this year's draft, Spiller steps into a big opportunity with the Chargers as the likely backup to Austin Ekeler. The Texas A&M product showed strong vision, balance and elusiveness in college, but he lacked physicality both while running between the tackles and when taking on defenders. Spiller also has some work to do to become a reliable option on passing downs, though that's not surprising for a Day 3 pick. The best thing he has going for him heading into training camp was weak competition for the No. 2 role behind Austin Ekeler, as Justin Jackson didn't re-sign with the Bolts this spring and neither Joshua Kelley nor Larry Rountree has shown much in the pros. It's possible that Spiller could take over the work that was split between Jackson, Kelly and Rountree last year - a total of 137 carries and 33 targets - down the road, but complicating matters in the short term is that Sony Michel joined the Los Angeles backfield ahead of Week 1.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could carve out pass-catching role
RBLos Angeles Chargers
March 13, 2024
Spiller could see more involvement as a pass catcher in 2024 after fellow running back Austin Ekeler opted to leave the Chargers in free agency and agreed Monday with the Commanders on a two-year deal, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Ekeler tied for second on the team with 51 receptions in 2023, while his primary backup last season -- Joshua Kelley -- is a free agent. The Chargers brought in Gus Edwards in free agency, but Edwards has just 30 catches over 69 career NFL regular-season games and will likely be ticketed for the early-down work that Ekeler and Kelley and shared. The cap-strapped Chargers are unlikely to dip back into the free-agent market at running back, though they could bolster their backfield during the 2024 NFL Draft. In the meantime, however, Spiller profiles as the top candidate to handle passing-down work. He's demonstrated good hands, albeit on a small sample size, catching all nine of his targets for 47 yards since the Chargers selected him in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft.
