Dobbins returned to practice, per numerous reports. Listed as questionable. Vidal and Haskins would be next guys up if Edwards (out) and Dobbins (questionable) can’t go.
eta* Dobbins listed as having a full practice, but he is still listed as questionable. If that helps at all, which I think it does.

Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) is officially questionable to be activated from Injured Reserve and play against the New England Patriots on Saturday. The former Baltimore Ravens' second-round pick has missed the last four games after suffering a knee injury but could return to action after logging two limited practices on Tuesday and Wednesday.
However, he did not practice on Thursday, so he might be on the wrong side of questionable for Week 17. Gus Edwards (ankle) won't play against the Patriots, so if Dobbins is also out, rookie Kimani Vidal and veteran Hassan Haskins will likely share touches. All Chargers' backs are risky fantasy options given all the uncertainty.
No. Right from the Chargers. Full participant, questionable. Thursday.
Scroll down right past the post that says “headin’ east” and you’ll see Dobbins above Edwards. Edwards DNP and listed as “out."

Hopefully we get Dobbins back this week. But can we trust him in our championship lineups?
Depends on your rooster, guy. No, I’m kidding but being serious. I also posted this in the Vidal thread because somebody was thinking of going with Vidal. I thought the Dobbins practice report was important enough to Vidal’s prospects to post.
So this wasn’t a Dobbins post, really. It was a “how does this affect Vidal” posting.
But to your question: If you were in my situation where you were staring at Tyrone Tracy, Kendre Miller, or Austin Hooper to fill out your last TE/RB spot (been my Achilles’ heel all year), you’d love a Dobbins on your roster returning from the dead. If you had, say, a Charbonnet sitting around, I’d go with Charbonnet in a heartbeat.
