Austin Ekeler placed on IR, concussion Out 4 games By: Mike Krueger | Sat Nov 30, 4:00 pm
| | The #Commanders are placing RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) on injured reserve. He’s out four games. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: Ekeler was already ruled out for Week 13 but this isn't great news for his long-term health. The earliest he could return would be Week 18 given the Commanders have a bye next week. In other words, he's safe to drop from your roster. Brian Robinson Jr. is expected to play this week against the Titans and we should also see Jeremy McNichols in a backup role.
| Brian Robinson Jr. Out again with hamstring injury Missed practice on Friday By: Mike Krueger | Fri Nov 8, 4:00 pm
| | Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. was ruled out for Week 10 vs. the Steelers. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Robinson was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday then sat on Friday before being ruled Out for Week 10. With Robinson out last week, the Commanders used three running backs including Austin Ekeler, Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez Jr. Ekeler will work as the lead back but all three should get touches capping their upside.
| Brian Robinson Jr. Inactive for Week 9 Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Sun Nov 3, 11:20 am
| | Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. is inactive today. Commanders expected he would be able to play but the pre-game warmup did not go well. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Over the weekend, it seemed like Robinson was on track to play but his pre-game workout didn't satisfy the coaches and trainers. With Robinson out, the Commanders will lean on Austin Ekeler and Jeremy McNichols to handle the running back work. Ekeler is a viable RB2 option, especially in PPR leagues while McNichols is a low-end Flex option.
| Brian Robinson Jr. downgraded to Out for Week 6 Missed practice all week with knee injury By: Mike Krueger | Sat Oct 12, 4:00 pm
| | Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr., who hadn’t practiced this week due to a knee injury, was downgraded to out for Sunday’s game at Baltimore. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Robinson didn't practice all week so this move isn't a huge surprise. With Robinson out, expect Washington to turn to Austin Ekeler and Jeremy McNichols at running back against the Ravens. Ekeler is a viable RB2, especially in PPR leagues while McNichols will be a boom-or-bust TD dependent option in deeper formats.
| Austin Ekeler ruled Out for Week 4, concussion Didn't travel with the team to Arizona By: Mike Krueger | Wed Sep 25, 3:35 pm
| | Dan Quinn said RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) is OUT for Sunday’s game in Arizona. (Nicki Jhabvala on X)
FFToday's Take: Ekeler played just 13 snaps out of 59 snaps before leaving Week 3's game against the Bengals. In his absence, expect a heavy dose of Brian Robinson Jr. against the Cardinals. Jeremy McNichols will also be worked in but likely won't see enough volume to be fantasy relevant.
