Oliver picked up 10 yards on four carries in Monday's loss to the Broncos.

While Oliver was used sparingly as a runner, Austin Ekeler did not receive a carry, though he caught a pair of passes in the losing effort. Barring the addition of outside competition, don't be surprised if the two backs remain engaged in a battle for snaps behind Gordon throughout the early part of the season. If the Week 1 distribution of touches is any indication, Gordon is in line to be a workhorse for the Chargers this season.
