Ekeler (ankle), who has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Titans, has a chance to return to the field Week 3 versus the Vikings, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Ekeler's ankle issue prevented him from practicing this week, but he doesn't look to be at risk of a long-term absence. Joshua Kelley is in line to serve as the Chargers' lead back versus Tennessee in Ekeler's stead, making Kelley a valuable option for fantasy managers even against one of the league's better run defenses. Los Angeles also has Elijah Dotson and Isaiah Spiller available in reserve.
