The Los Angeles Chargers have a major question mark at running back going into the wild-card game against the New England Patriots.
Hampton is dealing with an ankle injury that forced him to sit out at practice on both Wednesday and Thursday before putting in a limited practice on Friday and drawing the questionable tag.
Here's what we know about Hampton's status for the crucial playoff contest against the Patriots on Sunday night.
Is Omarion Hampton playing tonight?
UPDATE: Hampton is going through warm-ups before kickoff, so that's a good sign for his chances of suiting up.
We'll find out his official status around 6:30 p.m. ET.
END OF UPDATE
We still don't have a definitive answer on Hampton's status, but the rookie did say he expected to play on Sunday night.
“Yeah, that’s the plan," Hampton said during the week, per The Athletic's Daniel Popper.
We'll get final confirmation on Hampton's status when the Chargers drop their list of inactives an hour and a half before the 8 p.m. ET kickoff.
