The Washington Football Team worked out free-agent running backs Ryquell Armstead and D'Onta Foreman on Monday. Washington currently has Antonio Gibson, J.D.

Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 2

The wide receiver matchup […]

Logan Thomas Catches Five Passes
Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas caught five passes for 45 yards on Thursday night in the 30-29 win over the New York Giants.

Washington Football Team quarterback Taylor Heinicke finished with 336 passing yards and two passing touchdowns in Thursday night's 30-29 win over the New York Giants.

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson carried the ball 13 times for 69 yards and added two receptions for four yards against the New York Giants on Thursday night. The sophomore got a touchdown opportunity taken away by J.D. McKissic, so this ultimately led to him having a quiet night for fantasy managers. Gibson […]
Adam Humphries Catches Seven Passes
Washington Football Team wide receiver Adam Humphries caught seven passes for 44 yards on eight targets in Thursday night's win against the New York Giants. Humphries was relied upon to be a security blanket for Taylor Heinicke, as he has potentially stepped into a significant role in the Washington offense with Curtis Samuel out of […]
