• Commanders' Luke McCaffrey: Snap count drops in Week 15

  3H ago • By RotoWire

  McCaffrey reeled in his lone target for no gain and played 12 of the Commanders' 78 snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Saints. Coming out of a Week 14 bye, the Commanders placed No. 2 wideout Noah Brown (kidney) on injured reserve, but his absence didn't open up any more opportunities for McCaffrey. In fact, McCaffrey saw his snap count on offense get cut in half from the Commanders' previous game, when he logged 22 snaps in a Week 13 win over the Titans. Though the Commanders lost Brown to IR, Jamison Crowder (calf) was activated prior to Sunday's game and ended up leapfrogging McCaffrey in the pecking order at receiver, finishing fourth in snaps behind fellow wideouts Terry McLaurin, Dyami Brown and Olamide Zaccheaus. The 2024 third-round pick out of Rice has struggled to find his footing during his rookie season, recording just 17 receptions for 155 yards on 21 targets through 14 games.

• Commanders' Luke McCaffrey: Held to 13 yards

  McCaffrey caught both of his targets for 13 yards in a 42-19 win over the Titans on Sunday. McCaffrey didn't get any extra playing time after starting wideout Noah Brown left with a rib injury. Dyami Brown filled in instead, while McCaffrey and Olamide Zaccheaus maintained their usual depth roles. In any case, Noah Brown may be healthy after the Week 14 bye.

• Commanders' Luke McCaffrey: Catches one pass against Dallas

  21D ago • By RotoWire

  McCaffrey caught his lone target for eight yards in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Cowboys. McCaffrey's minimal production continues to be a result of his limited usage within Washington's offense. The rookie wideout's 26 percent offensive snap share in the contest was his lowest of the season, and the 23-year-old has recorded just 14 catches for 142 scoreless yards through 12 games. McCaffrey should remain off the fantasy radar when the Commanders host the Titans in Week 13.

  McCaffrey had one target and no catches in Thursday's 26-18 loss at Philadelphia. McCaffrey played 30 percent of snaps on offense, fifth most among Washington wide receivers. He's yet to draw more than three targets in a game and isn't likely to get a big usage bump Week 12 against Dallas.

• Commanders' Luke McCaffrey: Quiet in win over Chicago

  10/29/2024 • By RotoWire

  McCaffrey secured one of two targets for eight yards during Sunday's 18-15 win over the Bears. McCaffrey improved on his Week 7 performance, in which he failed to draw a single target in a blowout win over Carolina, but his production versus Chicago remained lackluster. His share of offensive snaps (36 percent) has been similar to Olamide Zaccheaus (35 percent) and Dyami Brown (32 percent), but well behind Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown. Heading into a Week 9 matchup against the Giants, the rookie third-round pick will remain off the fantasy radar until he's able to showcase more consistency and/or upside.
