Our 2026 Preseason Outlook

The 2025 tape tells a sobering story. Across six games Patterson logged just 41 carries for 159 yards on a thin 3.88 per attempt, adding a single touchdown and three catches for eight yards. A 28 percent snap share, minus-0.068 EPA per play, and only 2.29 yards after contact per carry confirm a back who neither broke open defenses nor created on his own, with one broken tackle all year. The 22.7 fantasy points he managed reflect deep-bench fringe usage, nothing more.

Los Angeles handed him a contract extension, but the backfield ahead is crowded: Omarion Hampton, Kimani Vidal, and Keaton Mitchell all sit higher on the chart, leaving Patterson a fourth option fighting just to make the final 53. Expert ranks bury him outside the top 120 backs, and projections are essentially nonexistent. Outside of a dynasty stash on an injury bet, there's no draftable case here in standard formats.
