• Isaiah Spiller: Let go by Raiders

  04/25/2025 • By RotoWire

  The Raiders waived Spiller on Friday. Spiller, who the Chargers took in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, last saw regular-season action in 2023. With the Raiders having drafted RB Ashton Jeanty on Thursday, the team elected to part ways with Spiller, who will look to catch on elsewhere as a depth back.

• Isaiah Spiller: Let go from Bolts' practice squad

  08/31/2024 • By RotoWire

  The Chargers cut Spiller from their practice squad Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Spiller was added to the Chargers' practice squad Wednesday after he was unable to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. The 2022 fourth-round pick will now look to catch on with a team in need of backfield depth. Spiller had 37 carries for 96 yards and six catches for 34 yards across nine regular-season games for the Chargers in 2023.

• Chargers' Isaiah Spiller: Does little in loss

  01/02/2024 • By RotoWire

  Spiller lost a yard on his lone carry and caught both of his targets for 10 yards in the 16-9 loss to the Broncos on Sunday. The Chargers struggled to get anything going on the ground as they averaged just 86 rushing yards on 24 carries across seven different ballcarriers. Spiller appears to have displaced Joshua Kelley as the team's No. 2 back behind Austin Ekeler considering Spiller played 12 snaps to Kelley's six, but the increase in playing time hasn't yielded much production for the 2022 fourth-round pick.

• Chargers' Isaiah Spiller: Increased production in loss

  12/12/2023 • By RotoWire

  Spiller recorded six carries for 19 yards in Sunday's 24-7 loss to the Broncos. Spiller had a season high in rushing yards and attempts, and out-snapped second-string running back Joshua Kelley by five. Considering the 22-year-old has only played in six games to date, it's unclear if the additional workload will be permanent moving forward, or just a one-week oddity. With Justin Herbert (finger) done for the season, the Chargers could experiment with the backfield in a variety of ways, but it seems unlikely Spiller will outright displace starting running back Austin Ekeler in the coming weeks.

• Chargers' Isaiah Spiller: Active versus Broncos

  12/10/2023 • By RotoWire

  Spiller is active for Sunday's game against the Broncos. Spiller has been a regular healthy scratch of late, but he'll be in uniform and has a chance to see some touches versus Denver, as the Chargers look for a potential spark in their ground game. Though Austin Ekeler remains in line to start, Joshua Kelley and Spiller are also expected to see work in the team's Week 14 backfield, with Ian Rapoport of NFL Network suggesting that Los Angeles may employ a 'hot hand' approach with its running backs Sunday.
