Chargers

• Chargers OC Mike McDaniel said it will be a committee approach between RBs Omarion Hampton, Kimani Vidal and Keaton Mitchell, and he’ll likely ride the hot hand and rotate depending on matchup: “Bad news, fantasy owners. Good news is I see all three of those guys producing at a very high level. Bad news is I can’t tell you which games those are.” (Kris Rhim)
• McDaniel talked about the competition at left guard: “There’s a lot of guys neck and neck right now. I really want the starter to earn it. I think the player will tell us, I think his teammates will tell us… No one’s eliminated themselves from the tournament.” (Rhim)

Chiefs

• Per Matt Derrick, Chiefs OC Eric Bieniemy returned to practice following his leave of absence due to personal matters.
• Kansas City HC Andy Reid talked about UDFA OL Kahlil Benson playing at RG after starting more games at RT in college: “I think it’s good for him to have some real flexibility… It’ll do nothing but help him, even at the tackle spot; it’ll help him when he jumps back there.” (Charles Goldman)

Raiders

• Raiders QB Kirk Cousins on being named the starter over QB Fernando Mendoza: “I think the organization is positioned well having drafted Fernando. I’m gonna try to hold him off as long as I can, and we’ll see how it goes up ahead.” (Graziano)
• Raiders HC Klint Kubiak on what he’s seen from S Treydan Stukes: “I like how hard he plays on special teams. He’s a guy that’s gonna challenge for spots in many places on defense and on teams. But I like that he’s a team-first guy and that shows up in the way he plays teams.” (Warren)
• Raiders fourth-round CB Jermod McCoy said he’s feeling good, and mentioned he’s been able to exceed the team’s limit on his workload as he works back from a torn ACL. (Sam Warren)
