I'd start him over Miles Sanders, Ezekiel Elliott, David Montgomery and any Rams running back.
There's a chance for him to score (Brandon Bolden did last week against the Bolts), if not boost his workload and flirt with 100 yards.
You should start Edwards-Helaire for what feels like a favorable matchup.Edwards-Helaire has amassed 16-plus touches in two of three career games against the Chargers and recorded at least 12 PPR points in both. The hope is that the Chiefs sort of saved Edwards-Helaire for the short-week turnaround, which is beneficial for running backs since defenses, as a group, take longer to recover than one rusher does.He played only 52% of the snaps until he was ultimately pulled in the middle of the third quarter because the Chiefs had such a big lead. Edwards-Helaire rocketed to 34 rush yards on his first three carries and still ended up with only seven for the game. It's the amount of work for Edwards-Helaire that should make you pause.Even though they allowed just 57 rush yards to Josh Jacobs last week, the Chargers still gave up 4.9 yards per carry (5.7 to Jacobs) and allowed the seventh-most yards after contact per carry (3.92) and had the fourth-most missed tackles (seven), all while seeing the fewest running back rushes (13). It's not the matchup that should scare you from starting Edwards-Helaire.I'd start him over Dawson Knox, Cole Kmet and Albert Okwuegbunam in all formats. You're starting Everett on his chances to keep contributing for L.A., especially in a matchup Allen isn't available for.White Ertz had just four targets, he got open quite a bit against both zone and man coverage. Kansas City allowed a touchdown and a two-point play to Zach Ertz last week.Herbert has targeted his tight ends on 20.9% of his career pass attempts, and 22.1% in career games against the Chiefs.He caught three of four targets for 54 yards and a strong touchdown where he made a contested catch and barreled into his defender and his momentum carried him into the end zone. He then played on 15 of the remaining 19 pass snaps. He was already a big part of the Chargers game plan in Week 1, playing on 11 of the 13 pass snaps Keenan Allen saw before Allen got hurt.Everett's a solid player with good size, but make no mistake that it's his opportunity in one of the league's pass-heaviest offenses (62.5% pass rate in 2021) that makes him a starter.
