If L.A. Chargers running back Austin Ekeler is on your fantasy team for Week 11, unless you're facing Colts running back Jonathan Taylor, you're probably feeling pretty good late heading into Monday.

The 26-year old back entered tonight's game vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers with 9 nine touchdowns scored in 10 weeks of the season. Not only did he go over 1/3 of his end zone production in one game, Ekeler also passed his season high with three touchdowns in a game back in Week 5 vs. the Cleveland Browns.

Ekeler got the scoring going with 2:13 left in the first quarter down 3-0 from six yards out on the ground.

Later on in the second quarter, the Chargers milked a 98 yard drive over just under seven minutes as Ekeler connected with Justin Herbert from 10 yards out for his first touchdown reception of the game, and second touchdown overall.

During the Chargers' first offensive possession of the second half, Ekeler took a 17-yard pass from Herbert out of the flat for 17 yards to the house, giving the Chargers a 24-10 lead early in the third quarter.

Now in the 4th quarter, the Chargers, now only up 7 following a Steelers touchdown run from Najee Harris, Justin Herbert sprinted for a massive gain to get L.A. deep into Pittsburgh territory.

A few seconds later, Ekeler did it for a fourth time to give the Chargers a two-score lead.

The fourth score of the night for Ekeler helped the OVER 47.5 hit on the evening.

The Chargers closed as 6-point home favorites in Week 11 vs. the Steelers.
