J.D. McKissic dealt with some groin tightness this week in practice, and the Commanders chose to let the veteran sit out of today’s game out of an abundance of caution.
Fantasy Impact: The RB battle between Antonio Gibson and Brian Robinson Jr. has been well documented for the Commanders, but perhaps the safest role in the backfield belongs to McKissic who is a well-documented third-down specialist. Perhaps Gibson getting more receiving work would cut into McKissic’s opportunity this season, but HC Ron Rivera has made it clear he plans to rely on all three running backs in a certain capacity this season. McKissic is most likely a wavier wire streaming option with a slight boost in PPR formats.
