Looks like the Commanders have decided to go with a split backfield with him and Chris Rodriguez, which is going to really hurt his value.
Hard to put up stats when you only get 7 carries.

If you can get someone to give you value might be time to sell.

I mean he’s not startable outside of deep leagues. It doesn’t seem like he’s going to take over the backfield like we had hoped. McNichols is getting a lot of the passing down work too. I wouldn’t blame you for bailing in a shallow league. Definite hold in dynasty though.

He may be getting the downs, but not the targets. For the year, McNichols has 2 targets and 1 reception for 0 yards.

Bill has 5 targets and 3 receptions for 15 yards. 2 of those receptions were this week.

Ekeler had 7 targets in the first 2 games.

Both JD5 and Mariotta are more likely to run than dump it off and they don't seem to be calling many first reads to the RB since Ekeler went out, so I don't think those passing downs are very valuable anyway.

Yeah I think he’s usually in there as a pass protector. They aren’t throwing much to RBs in general.

My dumbass dropped Woody Marks for McNichols bc I thought he would get the passing down work.

Well he is, they just don’t throw to him.

Yes. He has not looked good the last two weeks.

I think he’s looked fine when he’s actually been in the game, he just isn’t getting enough snaps or touches.
