BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 28% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: J.D. McKissic’s responsibilities as the Commanders’ pass-catching back have remained consistent since he arrived in Washington, as he averaged 6.0 targets per game during 2020-2021.
McKissic did not capture his usual allotment of targets during the team’s season opener (3.0 targets/7.5 share/17.6% targets per route run). However, he has now collected 7+ targets in two of his last three games. That includes his usage during Washington’s Week 5 matchup with Tennessee, as Carson Wentz targeted McKissic seven times.
McKissic has now accumulated 30 targets (6.0 per game), which places him third among all backs entering Week 6. McKissic is also fourth in receptions (24/4.8 per game) and fifth in receiving yards (159/31.8 per game).
McKissic’s usage and output as a receiver will be impacted by game scripts during the season. However, his role can remain sizable even as he operates in a Washington backfield that will also distribute targets to Brian Robinson and Antonio Gibson.
That should encourage anyone who is building rosters in PPR leagues to add him this week.
