Antonio Gibson Officially Active Against Chiefs
3 years agoWashington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (shin) is officially active on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs. Gibson continues to play through a stress fracture in his shin, but it hasn't limited him at all on game days. The 23-year-old has averaged 17 touches in the last two weeks and he's carried the ball 34 times for 123 yards and three touchdowns against the Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans Saints, adding four catches on four targets for 24 yards. The Chiefs have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points per game to RBs through five weeks, but Gibson could be in danger of losing touches to J.D. McKissic in the passing game if Washington falls behind early to a high-scoring Chiefs offense. Gibson is on the RB1/2 borderline on Sunday.
