Overview
- Head coach Jim Harbaugh said Hampton is "on track and looking good" to return after missing seven games with an ankle injury.
- Observers saw Hampton practice in a non-contact jersey while Trey Lance handled first-team reps.
- The Chargers have not yet activated him to the 53-man roster, with time remaining in his 21-day evaluation window.
- Kimani Vidal has led the backfield in Hampton's absence with more than 525 rushing yards and three 100-yard games.
- Justin Herbert is day-to-day after surgery on his non-throwing hand, and Lance would start if he cannot play.
