Chargers' Austin Ekeler Prepares for Free Agency Amid Season Struggles

Despite a challenging season and recent team management changes, Ekeler aims to prove his worth in the final three games.

Austin Ekeler, running back for the Los Angeles Chargers, is preparing for free agency after this season, stating he's 'still painting my resume'.
Ekeler has struggled this season, averaging a career-low 3.6 yards per carry and missing three games due to ankle injuries.
Despite his struggles, Ekeler has been a key player for the Chargers, scoring more touchdowns (44) than any running back since 2021 and having the most receptions of any back since 2019 with 354.
Ekeler has expressed dissatisfaction with the recent firing of head coach Brandon Staley and general manager Tom Telesco, stating he wouldn't have made the same decision.
The Chargers' final three games of the season will serve as an audition for Ekeler, who is determined to prove he can still play at a high level.
