Should You Start or Roster Gregory Desrosiers?
Desrosiers is an undrafted free-agent back with no NFL advanced stats, listed as a depth piece on a Chargers roster that just invested heavily in the position. Omarion Hampton headlines the backfield as the bell-cow, with Keaton Mitchell providing explosive change-of-pace and Kimani Vidal and Jaret Patterson also ahead in the rotation. That leaves Desrosiers essentially fifth or sixth on the ground-game pecking order.
With zero career touches to model and no draft capital to suggest a coaching staff is committed to developing him, his 2026 outlook is roster-bubble at best. The realistic outcome is a practice-squad stash or a special-teams role, neither of which carries fantasy value. He would need an avalanche of injuries to even reach the active rotation. Desrosiers is a non-factor in redraft and only a name for the deepest dynasty taxi squads to track through training camp. Leave him on the waiver wire.
