Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 20.
Huddle Up: Ertz has been targeted at least seven times in three of the last four games but has at least 50 yards in only one of those games. He likely will receive a similar workload in Week 12 and could be a possible low-end No. 1 tight end in some deeper leagues.

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz had six receptions (on seven targets) for 47 yards and a touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles. He also caught a pass for a two-point conversion.
Huddle Up: Both the touchdown and conversion happened in the final minute of the game, so they had no impact on the outcome, but they still counted for fantasy owners. The veteran tight end is a nice safety blanket for Jayden Daniels, but he hasn't produced the weekly numbers to be more than a fantasy backup in leagues large enough to warrant carrying a TE2.

Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin had one reception for 10 yards in a Week 11 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He was targeted twice.
Huddle Up: Ever since opening the season with two dismal performances, McLaurin has delivered, either scoring or topping 95 yards in eight straight games leading into Thursday night. He never got going against the Eagles, though, with the vast majority of Jayden Daniels' passes going to the running backs or tight ends. While you don't want to overreact to one bad game, it was the second time in three weeks that he's finished with less than 20 yards, he just managed to score twice in Week 9. Ultimately, he's had far more good games than bad ones this year, and he remains a worthy WR2.

Washington Commanders RB Austin Ekeler led the team in targets (9), receptions (8), and receiving yards (89) versus the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 11. He also ran the ball twice for seven yards.
Huddle Up: On a night when the Eagles locked down Washington on the outside, Ekeler was Jayden Daniels' primary target, ultimately falling just shy of 100 total yards even with Brian Robinson back in action. The veteran back is a capable flex option that can creep into RB3 territory some weeks.

Washington Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. carried the ball 16 times for 63 yards and a touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday, Nov. 14. He also had a nine-yard reception on his only target of the game.
Huddle Up: Back in action after missing two games with a hamstring injury, Robinson put up 72 yards and a score, which is on brand for what he's been doing recently -- he had 76 yards and 0 TDs in Week 8, and 71 yards and 1 TD in Week 7. Those numbers are a bit disappointing after he opened the season with three big games in the first four weeks, including two with over 100 yards. Still, he can be deployed as a low-end or possibly even a midrange RB2 at this time.

Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels completed 22 of 32 passes for 191 yards, 1 touchdown, and 1 interception versus the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday, Nov. 14. Daniels also ran the ball seven times for 18 yards.
Huddle Up: We're definitely seeing a lull in production from the rookie, who has averaged 201 yards passing, 19 yards rushing, and 1 TD per game over the last three weeks. Outside of his 326-yard effort against the Bears in Week 8, which was aided by a Hail Mary, Daniels hasn't been the same player since suffering a rib injury on Oct. 20. Perhaps a little extra rest, and a visit from the struggling Cowboys, will help him get back on track.

Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin has either scored a touchdown or reached 98 receiving yards in each of the last eight games.
Huddle Up: After opening the season with two awful performances, McLaurin has become one of the most dependable options at the wide receiver position. He is the go-to option in Washington's passing attack and in the WR1 mix on a weekly basis.
Posted 11/13/2024 8:47 pm GMT
Washington Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Nov. 13, and is not on the injury report for Week 11.
Huddle Up: Robinson should be back in the lineup after missing the last two games because of his injury. He should see most of the carries in the running game and can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 11/11/2024 9:49 pm GMT
Washington Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) was limited during practice Monday, Nov. 11. The Commanders did not hold a practice Monday, so this is an estimation.
Huddle Up: Robinson has missed the last two games because of the injury, so fantasy players should monitor his situation over the next few days. He should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues if he is able to play.
Posted 11/11/2024 12:35 am GMT
Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz was good for four receptions and 31 yards on eight targets in Week 10 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Huddle Up: The veteran is having a resurgence in 2024, posting four or more receptions in six of his past nine games. He is a borderline low-end TE1 or must-start TE2 in fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams. The Commanders face the Eagles in Philadelphia on Thursday night in Week 11.
Posted 11/11/2024 12:33 am GMT
Washington Commanders WR Noah Brown ended up with three receptions for 33 yards on seven targets in Week 10 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Huddle Up: Brown had that huge Hail Mary catch a couple of weeks ago, and he has managed six or more targets in each of the past three games. He also has three or more grabs in seven of eight games to date. He has some fantasy appeal in deeper PPR leagues, but his value is lesser in standard play.
Posted 11/11/2024 12:30 am GMT
Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin ended up with five receptions for a game-high 113 yards on six targets in Week 10 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Huddle Up: McLaurin managed his fourth 100-yard game of the season, and he has four games with five or more receptions in the five outings. He is a solid low-end WR1 in all fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams. Next up is a trip to Philadelphia in Week 12 on Thursday night.
Posted 11/11/2024 12:22 am GMT
Washington Commanders RB Jeremy McNichols ended up with four runs for seven yards and a touchdown in Week 10 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and he was not targeted in the pass game.
Huddle Up: While the touchdown was nice, less than two yards per carry isn't going to get it done. Austin Ekeler had the highest volume with Brian Robinson Jr. sidelined, and he is the player to target for fantasy purposes Thursday in Philadelphia if Robinson is sidelined again. McNichols is only worthy using in the deepest of fantasy leagues.
Posted 11/11/2024 12:20 am GMT
Washington Commanders RB Austin Ekeler ran 13 times for a team-high 44 yards and two touchdowns in Week 10 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, while adding a single 7-yard reception on two targets.
Huddle Up: Ekeler was taking advantage of the fact Brian Robinson Jr. was sidelined, and Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez Jr. could do nothing on the ground. Ekeler still has plenty left in the tank, and if he leads the backfield Thursday in Philadelphia, he could have some appeal as a RB3 or flex fantasy option.
Posted 11/11/2024 12:17 am GMT
Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels ended up 17-of-34 for 202 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 10 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, while adding three runs for just five yards.
Huddle Up: The Steelers did a pretty good job putting the clamps on the exciting rookie, and it was just the second full game for Daniels without a touchdown this season. The last time he did that was Week 2 against the New York Giants, and his real team still managed to get the win. He'll look to rebound in Week 11 on a short week in Philadelphia Thursday.
Posted 11/08/2024 9:11 pm GMT
Washington Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) did not participate in practice Friday, Nov. 8, and has been ruled out for Week 10.
Huddle Up: Robison was able to do some things during practice this week but is not ready to play yet. Austin Ekeler and Chris Rodriguez Jr. probably will share playing time at running back this week and both can be at flex option in fantasy leagues.
Posted 11/07/2024 9:02 pm GMT
Washington Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 7.
Huddle Up: Robinson likely will receive a majority of the carries if he is able to play this week and will be facing a Pittsburgh Steelers defense that had trouble against the run in their last game. He should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues if active.
Posted 11/06/2024 9:18 pm GMT
Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 6.
Huddle Up: Ertz is coming off his worst game of the season but should be more involved in the passing game this week. He can be considered a low-end No. 1 tight end in some deeper fantasy leagues.
Posted 11/06/2024 6:45 pm GMT
Washington Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) will practice on Wednesday, Nov. 6, head coach Dan Quinn said.
Huddle Up: Robinson looked like he might suit up last week before being ruled inactive. His level of practice participation is the thing to watch here, as Robinson turned in three limited sessions last week. If he returns, Robinson is an RB2 play.
Posted 11/03/2024 8:31 pm GMT
Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz caught one pass for five yards against the New York Giants in Week 9. He was targeted one time during the game.
Huddle Up: Ertz has been a solid part of the passing game this season but was not involved against the Giants. He should see a bigger workload next week but may only be a No. 2 tight end in most leagues.
Posted 11/03/2024 8:28 pm GMT
Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin caught two passes for 19 yards and two touchdowns against the New York Giants in Week 9. He was targeted three times during the game.
Huddle Up: McLaurin did not see a lot of targets during the game but made both of his catches count. He is the main option in the passing game for Washington and should post better numbers next week. He is a weekly starting option in all leagues.
Posted 11/03/2024 8:22 pm GMT
Washington Commanders WR Noah Brown caught five passes for 60 yards against the New York Giants in Week 9. He was targeted six times during the game.
Huddle Up: Brown has been more involved in the passing game over the last month with three games with at least 55 yards. He has been targeted 12 times over the last two games and likely will see a similar workload next week. He could be a possible flex option in deeper leagues.
Posted 11/03/2024 8:14 pm GMT
Washington Commanders RB Austin Ekeler rushed for 42 yards and one touchdown on 11 carries against the New York Giants in Week 9. He also caught three passes for 41 yards during the game.
Huddle Up: Ekeler continues to be involved in both the running and passing game and has been productive in both parts of the offense. He should see a similar workload next week and can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.
Posted 11/03/2024 8:09 pm GMT
Washington Commanders RB Chris Rodriguez Jr. rushed for 53 yards on 11 carries against the New York Giants in Week 9.
Huddle Up: Rodriguez received a big role this week since Brian Robinson Jr. was not available, but he will be returning to the practice squad after the game. He should be avoided in fantasy leagues unless he is added to the 53-man roster at some point.
Posted 11/03/2024 7:53 pm GMT
Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels went 15-for-22 for 209 yards and two touchdowns against the New York Giants in Week 9. He also rushed for 35 yards on eight carries during the game.
Huddle Up: Daniels threw at least two touchdowns for the third time this season and has gone four straight games without an interception. He has become one of the better fantasy quarterbacks in the NFL and should be a No. 1 quarterback in fantasy leagues next week.
Posted 11/03/2024 3:45 pm GMT
Washington Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) has been declared inactive for the Week 9 game.
Huddle Up: Austin Ekeler probably will see a majority of the touches at running back with Robinson sidelined, but Jeremy McNichols should also see a bigger workload in Week 9. Ekeler can be at least a flex option in all fantasy leagues, while McNichols could be a possible flex option in deeper leagues.
Posted 11/01/2024 8:26 pm GMT
Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin (ankle) was a full participant in practice for the third consecutive day on Friday, Nov. 1, and was removed from the injury report for Week 9.
Huddle Up: Now that he finally has a competent quarterback throwing him the football, McLaurin has been unlocked and is on pace for a career-best season. He's a high-end WR2 entering Week 9.
