Joshua Kelley Drafted by Chargers: Los Angeles' Latest Depth Chart After Round 4

Tyler ConwayApr 25, 2020

The Los Angeles Chargers selected UCLA running back Joshua Kelley with the No. 112 pick of the 2020 NFL draft.

Kelley was a 2019 second-team All-Pac 12 selection, rushing for 1,060 yards and 12 touchdowns as a senior. He impressed at the Senior Bowl with 105 yards, culminating a climb that began as a 2-star recruit who had to impress at UC Davis before transferring to UCLA.

Here is a look at the Chargers' updated offensive depth chart:

UCLA rarely used Kelley as a receiver, so it's likely the Chargers envision him as someone who can spell Austin Ekeler and perhaps even be a third-stringer behind Justin Jackson. The Chargers signed Ekeler to a four-year, $24.5 million contract last month, so they clearly see him as the top back in their offense.

Jackson has been oft-injured during his NFL career, appearing in only 20 of a possible 32 games. Kelley is solid insurance in case either of their top backs gets injured, though his relative lack of versatility makes him a limited option.

The Chargers were bound to add another running back to their roster over the three-day draft after allowing Melvin Gordon to leave via free agency. Kelley's probably not going to make much impact as a rookie, but he's a low-level keeper option in certain dynasty fantasy formats.
