Headed to Atlanta
The Falcons signed Dotson to the practice squad Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Dotson was unable to make the Chargers' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he will head to Atlanta and be available to provide depth at running back if needed on game day. Dotson appeared in four regular-season games for the Chargers in 2023 and turned four carries into six yards while adding two catches on as many targets for 13 yards.

Doesn't make Bolts' 53-man roster
Dotson was waived by the Chargers on Tuesday.
Analysis: Dotson managed to catch on with the Chargers' 53-man roster in 2023 after a productive preseason, but he wasn't able to replicate that success this time around. He finished the season with 38 rushing yards on 11 carries and ultimately wasn't able to stick around in a depth backfield role. Should he clear waivers, Dotson could sign to the Chargers' practice squad or search for opportunities elsewhere.

Stays in Los Angeles
The Chargers signed Dotson to a reserve/future contract Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Undrafted out of North Colorado in 2023, Dotson landed with the Chargers and had a productive preseason, rushing for 18-146-2 to earn a spot on the active roster. Dotson played 16 offensive snaps in the regular season, rushing four times for six yards and catching two passes for 13 yards. He later was cut and joined the Chargers' practice squad.

Staying in Los Angeles
The Chargers signed Dotson to their practice squad Tuesday.
Analysis: Dotson will stick around with Chargers after being waived from the active roster Saturday. The 24-year-old carried the ball four times for six yards in four games played this season and will now wait for an opportunity to be elevated off the practice squad.

Let go by Bolts
The Chargers waived Dotson on Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Dotson has not seen seen the field since the Week 4 win over Las Vegas. His playing time early in the year correlated with the absence of RB1 Austin Ekeler, but he's been a nonfactor with Ekeler available over the past seven games. With Joshua Kelley and Isaiah Spiller both ahead of him on the depth chart, it's not surprising to see the Chargers cut Dotson loose ahead of Sunday's game versus New England. The undrafted free agent will now be subject to waivers, and he will become an unrestricted…read more

Inactive Monday
Dotson is inactive for Monday's game against the Cowboys.
Analysis: With top back Austin Ekeler back in action Monday, Dotson is the odd man out in the Chargers' Week 6 backfield. As a result, Joshua Kelley and Isaiah Spiller are on hand to work behind Ekeler. In that context, Dotson is off the fantasy radar until injuries hit the team's RB corps.

Plays single snap
Dotson played a single snap in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: It appeared as if Dotson had a lock on the backup job behind Joshua Kelley after playing nine snaps in the Week 2 loss to the Titans, but at least for Sunday, it was Isaiah Spiller who saw a healthy amount of complementary snaps. The undrafted rookie free agent hasn't done much despite a solid preseason, one which ultimately helped him make the final 53-man roster.

Gets six touches in loss
Dotson carried the ball four times for six yards in Sunday's 27-24 overtime loss to the Titans. He also caught two passes for 13 yards.
Analysis: Dotson only played nine offensive snaps total, so that he touched the ball in six of those is impressive. Perhaps more crucially for fantasy managers, the undrafted rookie does appear to be the clear backup to Joshua Kelley, who himself filled in for the injured Austin Ekeler (ankle). Expect a high-octane offensive game in an interesting Week 3 matchup against the Vikings.
