ESPN••general
Key Points:
- Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton, who missed Week 18 with a right ankle injury, plans to play in Sunday's playoff game against the New England Patriots and was listed as questionable.
- Hampton participated in limited practice on Friday, marking his first on-field activity since Week 17, and expressed excitement about potentially playing in his first playoff game.
- The rookie running back has faced multiple injuries this season, including a left ankle fracture that placed him on injured reserve after Week 5 and a right ankle injury sustained in Week 17.
- Despite injuries, Hampton has been a key offensive player for the Chargers, stepping up after Najee Harris's season-ending Achilles injury and delivering strong performances since his return in Week 14.
