| 5/11/25 | Chargers predicted to acquire 49ers running back via trade. The Los Angeles Chargers worked hard — and spent top dollar and a first-round draft pick — to rebuild the running back position this offseason. After releasing Gus Edwards and choosing not to re-sign J.K. Dobbins, the team signed Najee Harris in free agency before drafting Omarion Hampton in the first round. Second-year player Kimani Vidal will be the favorite to be the team's No. 3 running back. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/los-angeles-ch... |

Edwards spent the first six years of his NFL career with the Baltimore Ravens before joining the Chargers last offseason as a free agent. In Baltimore, Edwards was one of the league's most efficient rushers. He rushed for 700-plus yards and averaged 5.0-plus yards per carry in each of his first three seasons.

In 2024, he appeared in 11 games for the Chargers, but saw his statistics decline.

| 1/26/25 | Los Angeles Chargers cutting Gus Edwards wouldn't make much sense. The Los Angeles Chargers have some interesting cut candidates this offseason. It should go without saying at this point, but two major points stick out around that conversation: Joey Bosa is by far the biggest name on the chopping board, and the Chargers have droves of free cap space (roughly $65 million) as it is.

| 1/01/25 | Should Chargers add Ezekiel Elliott after RB's release from Cowboys?. The Los Angeles Chargers could use some help at the running back position with Gus Edwards injured and J.K. Dobbins only just getting back on the field from his latest injury. So why not take a look at Ezekiel Elliott? The Dallas Cowboys just released Elliott , complete with a massive statement from Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones and all, permitting him to go find a contender to play with if and when he clears the waiver wire. Elliott is far from his former self at this stage of his career, as he hasn't averaged at least four yards per carry during a season since 2021. This year, he turned 74 attempts into 226 yards and three scores. But when it comes to Elliott, much of the conversation comes down Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/chargers/chargers-ezekiel-e... |
