    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Takes four touches for six yards

    Jeremy McNichols had three carries for five yards and one catch for one yard in a 26-18 loss to the Eagles on Thursday.McNichols played 17 percent of snaps on offense, putting him well behind fellow Washington running backs Brian Robinson (53 percent) and Austin Ekeler (52 percent). McNichols had a slightly larger role the previous two weeks with Robinson sidelined by a hamstring injury, but even then the Washington Commanders got Chris Rodriguez involved and kept it as a three-man backfield. McNichols is unlikely to see more than a handful of touches Week 12 against Dallas.

    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Four carries in loss

    Jeremy McNichols carried the ball four times for seven yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Steelers.McNichols operated as the No. 2 running back behind Austin Ekeler Sunday with Brian Robinson (hamstring) sidelined for the contest. Though he was limited to just four carries, the 28-year-old was able to find the end zone for the fourth time this season. Even if Robinson were to miss a third-straight game in Week 11, McNichols' limited usage makes him extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes in a matchup against Philadelphia.

    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Benefits from Robinson's absence

    Jeremy McNichols rushed the ball eight times for 20 yards in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Giants.McNichols matched his season high with eight rushing attempts as he shifted up the depth chart in the absence of Brian Robinson (hamstring). McNichols was less effective than both Austin Ekeler and Chris Rodriguez, which could affect his usage moving forward even if Robinson remains sidelined for a Week 10 matchup against the Steelers.

    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Scarcely involved in Week 8 win

    Jeremy McNichols rushed once for minus-one yards in Sunday's 18-15 win over the Bears.McNichols played just seven percent of offensive snaps versus Chicago, his lowest total since Week 2. Brian Thomas (58 percent of snaps) and Austin Ekeler (47 percent of snaps) remain the clear top options in the Washington Commanders' backfield, but if either misses time, McNichols will be first in line for added opportunities. From Week 4 to Week 7, McNichols rushed for at least 40 yards in three of four contests.

    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Handles seven carries

    Jeremy McNichols rushed seven times for 42 yards in Sunday's 40-7 win over the Panthers.On a day when the Washington Commanders dominated the Panthers, McNichols saw some added carries as Washington's No. 3 running back. The 28-year-old played just 17 of the Commanders' 69 offensive snaps in the contest behind Austin Ekeler (28) and Brian Robinson (26). Heading into a Week 8 matchup with Chicago, McNichols doesn't hold much value for fantasy with both Robinson and Ekeler healthy.

    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Gets only two touches

    Jeremy McNichols took two carries for nine yards in a 30-23 loss to Baltimore on Sunday.McNichols had 118 total yards and three TDs on 15 touches over the previous two games, taking on extra work with Austin Ekeler and then Brian Robinson (knee) limited/absent due to injuries. Robinson missed Sunday's game in Baltimore, but the Washington Commanders didn't attempt many rushes against a stout run defense, and McNichols finished without a target despite playing 39 percent of snaps and running 17 routes (just three fewer than Ekeler). McNichols will almost certainly get more touches if Robinson misses another contest Week 7 against Carolina, but Ekeler would still be the much safer bet for volume and production.

    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Gets into end zone again

    Jeremy McNichols carried the ball seven times for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-13 win over the Browns.Even with Brian Robinson and Austin Ekeler both healthy, McNichols saw a significant workload in the second half of Sunday's rout, capping his day with a three-yard TD run in the third quarter. The Washington Commanders' offense has been potent enough of late that there could be touches available for all three RBs, and McNichols has gotten into the end zone three times in the last two contests, but he's still third in the backfield pecking order heading into a Week 6 meeting with the Ravens.

    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Two TDs in Ekeler's absence

    Jeremy McNichols rushed eight times for 68 yards and two touchdowns while catching his only target for six yards in Sunday's 42-14 win over the Cardinals.McNichols got only nine touches to Brian Robinson's 24, but the backup made the most of his additional opportunities in Austin Ekeler's (concussion) absence. McNichols broke free for a 27-yard touchdown run in the second quarter and capped off the scoring with a seven-yard touchdown run in the fourth. If Ekeler's unable to clear concussion protocol before the Washington Commanders host the Browns in Week 5, McNichols would remain in a change-of-pace role behind Robinson.

    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Serving as No. 2 back Sunday

    Jeremy McNichols is in line to serve as the Washington Commanders' No. 2 running back in Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the Cardinals with Austin Ekeler (concussion) inactive for the game.McNichols logged eight snaps of emergency duty in the Week 3 win over the Bengals on Monday night after Ekeler was forced from the contest. The 2017 fifth-round pick of the Buccaneers has bounced around the NFL over the last seven-plus seasons and has just 91 career carries across 38 regular-season contests, so the threat he represents to lead back Brian Robinson's workload is virtually non-existent. McNichols is a capable pass catcher, however, so he could conceivably have some PPR value in very deep leagues if the Commanders trail in the second half and are forced into frequent passing situations.

    Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Subs in for Ekeler

    Jeremy McNichols played eight snaps in Monday's 38-33 win at Cincinnati, taking one carry for one yard after replacing Austin Ekeler (concussion).Brian Robinson unsurprisingly dominated backfield touches after Ekeler's exit in the third quarter, but McNichols delivered a perfect blitz pickup that helped QB Jayden Daniels connect with Terry McLaurin for a game-clinching, 27-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter. While unlikely to take a lot of touches, McNichols should get playing time on passing downs if Ekeler doesn't clear the concussion protocol before a Week 4 contest at Arizona.
