Washington Commanders

Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said on Monday that running back Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) is getting treatment for the ankle injury that forced him out of the Week 12 loss to the division-rival Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. The team will know more on his status for the Week 13 game against the Tennessee Titans later in the week. The good news is that the 25-year-old re-entered the game on Sunday after initially leaving, but he left again in the second half and never returned. With Austin Ekeler being in the concussion protocol this week, there's a possibility the Commanders have to turn to a committee approach with Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez Jr. this Sunday against the Titans. McNichols should be a popular waiver-wire pickup this week for fantasy managers hurting at the RB position.

Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said on Monday that scans on running back Austin Ekeler's head were good, but he is in the league's concussion protocol after getting injured late in the upset loss to the division-rival Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. The Commanders' backfield was beat up in Week 12, as Brian Robinson (ankle) also left twice. Depending on the availability of both B-Rob and Ekeler for the team's Week 13 contest versus the Tennessee Titans, Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez Jr. could be thrust into significant roles. The 29-year-old Ekeler failed to take advantage of Robinson's injury on Sunday, as he had 11 touches for just 24 yards against Dallas. We'll keep a close eye on the status of Washington's RBs this week, with Ekeler ultimately needing clearance from an independent neurologist later in the week in order to play on Sunday.

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler (concussion) didn't return to Sunday's loss to the Dallas Cowboys. There were only seconds left on the clock. However, the game ended with Ekeler exiting due to a concussion. According to head coach Dan Quinn, the veteran will undergo further testing. But with Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) and Ekeler both banged up in Week 12, there's a chance both players may miss the Week 13 meeting with the Titans. If so, Jeremy McNichols would likely handle most of the work out of the backfield.

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) sustained an ankle injury during their loss to the Dallas Cowboys and only logged five carries for 13 yards. He caught one of his two targets for 11 yards as well. Robinson sustained his first ankle injury in the opening quarter but was able to return shortly after. However, later in the second half, Robinson suffered another injury to his ankle and was unable to return. Fantasy managers should closely monitor his status throughout the week, as he could be in danger of missing next weekend's game. In addition, No.2 running back Austin Ekeler (concussion) sustained an injury in the final minutes. If both running backs were to sit out in Week 13, Jeremy McNichols should be expected to operate as the lead back.

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert struggled in his return on Sunday afternoon in their loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Seibert went 2-for-3 on field goal attempts and 0-for-2 on extra points. He connected on his field goals from 46 and 51 yards and missed one from 51 yards as well. He also missed the game-tying extra point in the final minutes. Seibert has yet to miss an extra point this season before this game, so fantasy managers should not be overly concerned. In addition, Seibert has yet to miss a field goal attempt from within 49 yards. Despite the rough showing this weekend, fantasy managers should still view Seibert as a solid K1 in all formats heading into a Week 13 tilt against the Tennessee Titans.
