Subscribe to the Yahoo Fantasy Football Show
The Chargers and Austin Ekeler have returned to life over the past two weeks, so there’s no better time to identify the top fantasy rebounding candidates for the second half of the season with the RBs and Matt Harmon in the latest edition of Ekeler’s Edge .
But first, the two recap the Chargers’ dominant performance against the Jets on MNF and the bad beats caused by Ekeler’s late touchdown. The two then discuss the significance of Chargers WR Keenan Allen surpassing 10,000 yards in his career and what makes him a special route runner.
Harmon also gets Ekeler’s take on Josh Dobbs’ heroic performance for the Vikings in Week 9 and how hard it is for anyone to step in and play QB for a new team in an emergency. The two then update the Ekeler Invitational fantasy league, where both received Ws in Week 9.
