Alex Smith Efficient In Win Over Bengals
Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith completed 17 passes on 25 attempts for 166 yards in a win over the Bengals on Sunday. Smith threw one touchdown and one interception in a game where Washington threw the ball less than half as many times as last week's 55-attempt game. Smith looked good running the offense […]
Logan Thomas Invisible In Win Over Bengals
Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas wasn't much of a factor in the team's win over the Bengals Sunday. Thomas was targeted five times, but only hauled in two passes for a measly six yards. Thomas also carried the ball once for two yards. Thomas has been seeing more volume since Alex Smith took […]
Dustin Hopkins Questionable Versus Bengals
Washington Football Team kicker Dustin Hopkins (groin) is officially listed as questionable to play in Week 11 versus Cincinnati. Hopkins was battling the same injury last week and played, but he did miss a crucial 43-yarder which led to plenty of media speculation in Washington if Hopkins should have suited up with an injury on […]
Terry McLaurin Looking To Stay Hot Against Bengals
Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin has been one of the best receivers in the NFL so far this season and will look to keep that momentum rolling against Cincinnati. McLaurin has seven catches in each of his last four games and has at least 74 yards in every game. On the season, McLaurin […]
Washington Defense A Strong Play Versus Bengals
The Washington Football Team defense is a strong start in fantasy this week versus a Bengals offense that allows the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing defenses. The Bengals offensive line has been banged up which led to four sacks last Sunday versus Pittsburgh. Starting QB Joe Burrow has been sacked at least four times in […]
J.D. McKissic A Start-Worthy Running Back In Week 11
Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic has seen his fantasy value skyrocket since Alex Smith took over at quarterback three weeks ago. McKissic has been peppered with targets in the last two games with the veteran QB throwing his way 14, and 15 times respectively in his two starts. McKissic will obviously not keep […]
Antonio Gibson On Three-Game Touchdown Streak Ahead Of Week 11
Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson has four touchdowns in his last three games and will look to stay hot against a Bengals Defense that was shredded by the Steelers last week. Gibson has played behind veteran J.D. McKissic on passing downs, but has found the end zone enough to be a must-start running […]
Logan Thomas Has Good Matchup In Week 11
Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas has been more involved in the offense lately and will look to keep his momentum going in a good matchup versus Cincinnati. The Bengals Defense is allowing the second most PPR-fantasy points to opposing tight ends coming into this matchup. Over the last four games, Thomas has 14 […]
Alex Smith Has Sleeper Appeal Versus Bengals
Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith has been trending upwards in fantasy since taking over for Kyle Allen (ankle) and has another good matchup in Week 11. Smith will face a Bengals Defense that allowed three different Steelers receivers to finish as top-12 receivers in PPR-scoring last week. Washington has been throwing the ball more […]
Saahdiq Charles Done For The Season
Washington Football Team rookie offensive lineman Saahdiq Charles (knee) will have season-ending knee surgery on Tuesday, according to a source. The fourth-round pick suffered a dislocated kneecap on his second NFL snap. Charles was hoping to avoid surgery and go the rehab route, but he will instead go under the knife and should be on […]
Washington Pleased With Alex Smith
Washington Football Team head coach Ron Rivera thinks quarterback Alex Smith has successfully completed his journey from a gruesome leg injury to become the team's starter. Smith was 38-for-55 for 390 yards in the narrow Week 10 loss to the Lions. The 36-year-old has two years left on his contract after this season, although releasing […]
Dustin Hopkins Makes Two Of Three Field Goals In Detroit
Washington Football Team kicker Dustin Hopkins made two of three field goals with a long of 41 in a loss to the Lions in Week 11. Hopkins made all three of his extra-point attempts. Hopkins has been a solid kicker in fantasy this season and is a startable option in Week 11 versus Cincinnati.
Logan Thomas Records 66 Yards Versus Lions
Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas made four catches for 66 yards in a loss to the Lions on Sunday. Thomas was targeted six times in a game where Washington had to throw 55 times as they trailed all afternoon. The 66 yards are a season-high for Thomas who has been better for fantasy […]
Cam Sims Makes Four Catches Against Lions
Washington Football Team wide receiver Cam Sims caught four-of-five targets for 54 yards in a loss to the Lions on Sunday. Washington threw 55 times in this game so it's tough to trust Sims in fantasy given it took that many pass attempts to get him a season-high in targets. Sims, Isaiah Wright, and Steven […]
Steven Sims Jr. Makes Five Catches Versus Lions
Washington Football Team wide receiver Steven Sims Jr. caught five of his six targets for 46 yards in a loss to the Lions Sunday. The six targets are a season-high for Sims Jr. after making just one catch for four yards last week. Sims Jr., Isaiah Wright, and Cam Sims have shuffled back-and-forth as the […]
Isaiah Wright Goes For 59 Yards Versus Lions
Washington Football Team wide receiver Isaiah Wright caught all six of his targets for 59 yards in a loss to the Lions on Sunday. Wright has nine targets and nine catches in his last two games after missing two games with an injury. Wight and receivers Steven Sims and Cam Sims have all fought for […]
Washington Defense Does Nothing Versus Lions
The Washington Football Team defense had a rough game in a 30-27 loss in Detroit on Sunday. The Football Team's vaunted defensive line couldn't get to the quarterback and failed to force a turnover in the disappointing effort. Washington has some sack upside, but this isn't a consistent enough unit to consider a must-roster option […]
Terry McLaurin Makes Seven Catches In Fourth-Straight Game
Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin made seven catches for 95 yards in a loss to the Lions Sunday. McLaurin added 27 rushing yards and lost a fumble in the contest. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. McLaurin has been money for fantasy managers this season with seven catches in four-straight games and he's eclipsed 90 yards […]
J.D. McKissic makes Seven Catches Versus Lions
Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic was a focal point of the offense against his former team, turning 15 targets into seven catches for 43 yards. Watching this game, it was easy to forget McKissic is a running back as he rushed for only six yards on eight carries, but did find the end […]
Antonio Gibson Finds End Zone Twice In Detroit
Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson rushed 13 times for 45 yards and two touchdowns in a loss to the Lions. Gibson added four catches for 20 receiving yards. The good news for fantasy managers, obviously, is the two scores as Gibson is the RB-of-choice for Washington in the rushing game including all the […]
Alex Smith Throws For 390 Scoreless Yards
Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith completed 38 passes on 55 attempts for 390 yards in a loss to the Lions Sunday. Smith added four rushing yards while not throwing any touchdowns and did not turn the ball over. While the yardage total is impressive, it's hard to take much from this performance for fantasy […]
Dustin Hopkins Questionable Against Lions
Washington Football Team kicker Dustin Hopkins (groin) is questionable to play in Week 10 against the Lions. Hopkins was limited in practice all week, so our best guess is that he will kick this weekend. If Hopkins is deemed inactive Sunday morning, Washington will likely elevate Kaare Vedvik from the practice squad to do the […]
Terry McLaurin Leads In Yards After Catch Over Expectation
Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin leads the NFL with 143 yards after the catch over expectation (YACOE). Saints running back Alvin Kamara, the only RB on the list, is used as a receiver out of the backfield on 79.4 percent of his routes, out wide on 13.1 percent of his routes and in […]
Alex Smith Looking To Bounce Back In Detroit
Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith struggled in relief of Kyle Allen (ankle) last week, but will look to bounce back as the starting QB against the Lions. Head coach Ron Rivera announced Smith would start immediately after the quarterback tossed three interceptions in a Week 9 loss to the Giants. A full week of […]
Dustin Hopkins Limited On Thursday
Washington Football Team kicker Dustin Hopkins (groin) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday. Jokes aside how kickers are inherently limited participants in football, Hopkins has been a solid boot for fantasy managers this season. He had a perfect afternoon last week with two extra points and two field goals, including a 48-yarder. Head […]
Washington Defense A Solid Start Versus Lions
The Washington Football Team defense has been trending upward in fantasy and has another solid matchup in Week 10 versus a Lions team that could again be without top receiver Kenny Golladay (hip). Washington has been playing better in recent weeks with their pass-rush combination of Ryan Kerrigan and rookie first-rounder Chase Young, providing a safe […]
Logan Thomas A Risky Start Versus Lions
Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas will be a touchdown-dependent streamer for a Week 10 matchup with the Lions. Thomas has a low ceiling for fantasy as he hasn't eclipsed 60 yards in a game this season. When he gets in the end zone he returns value, but it's risky to start Thomas. Alex […]
Antonio Gibson Practices In Full On Thursday
Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (shoulder) practiced in full on Thursday and will assume his lead-back role in a good matchup with the Lions. Head coach Ron Rivera said Gibson was held out of practice Wednesday as a precaution. Gibson has been losing passing downs work to J.D. McKissic, but both backs have […]
J.D. McKissic Has Flex Appeal In Week 10
Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic has been a weapon out of the backfield over the past few weeks and has another great matchup in Week 10. The Lions allow the most fantasy points to opposing running backs and have allowed five receiving touchdowns to running backs, most in the NFL. This bodes well […]
Terry McLaurin A Locked-In WR1 Versus Lions
Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin has been unstoppable over the last three weeks and will look to keep that momentum going in Detroit. McLaurin has seven catches in each of the last three games as he is one of the most targeted receivers in football with 9.6 per-game. That volume alone makes McLaurin […]
