What It Means:

Wide receiver Griff Whalen was waived in a corresponding roster move. The Chargers have extremely little depth behind starter Melvin Gordon, but Hillman should see little, if any, action on Sundays. If he does, it would solely be a handful of third-down snaps if he acquits himself well in practice.

On his 18 carries this season, Hillman has earned -0.16 Rushing Net Expected Points per attempt.
