Jeremy McNichols

31 of his 41 yards came before the half as the Commanders were forced to air it out after the break, including on their overtime possession. Still, he saw one more carry than Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Jeremy McNichols did combined as the primary early-down bruiser, a role that could yield more fantasy value with the expected return of quarterback Jayden Daniels in Week 14.

McNichols led the Washington backs in catches but finished third on the team in rush attempts. He has a minor role through the air and doesn't see much work on the ground. McNichols is more of a thorn in the side of the other Washington backs than a standalone fantasy asset. He is not worth holding onto through the team's Week 12 bye.

Rodriguez drew the start last week but left early with a shoulder injury. He played a full four quarters today and easily led the team in carries and rushing yards. Jacory Croskey-Merritt saw nine attempts and Jeremy McNichols rushed four times. The Commanders have thrown in the towel on Bill, elevating Rodriguez to lead back duties. He will be a two-down RB3 versus the Broncos coming out of Washington's upcoming bye.
