Grade Breakdown
What do these mean?Why 11.0?
Hampton's grade is low mainly because his touches have cost the Chargers expected points, ranking 47th of 51 backs. Two lost fumbles in the first two games did much of the damage. This is only three games, so the grade could still move.
Holding it back
- EPA per touch of -0.295 expected points, 47th of 51 backs, pulled the grade down a lot.
- Week 2 vs LV, Q4: fumbled after a 2-yard run, recovered by Chinn, costing 7.4 expected points.
- Week 1 vs ARI, Q2: fumbled on a left end run for -1 yards, recovered by Johnson, costing 5.2 expected points.
