Washington Commanders

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz found the end zone for the second straight week in their loss to the Dallas Cowboys. In this game, Ertz saw eight targets (second-most on the team) and brought in six of them for 38 yards and a score. He found the end zone in the final frame off a four-yard strike from Jayden Daniels. Over his past three games, Ertz has caught at least four passes and seen seven targets in each game. During this span, Ertz also tallied at least 30 yards in each contest. Given his steady production and consistent volume, fantasy managers should continue to view the 34-year-old as a solid low-end TE1 in PPR leagues heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Tennessee Titans.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown brought in six receptions for 71 yards while seeing a team-high of 10 targets in their loss to the Dallas Cowboys. This was an impressive showing for Brown, as he caught just one pass of four yards last week during their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Since Week 6, Brown has slowly begun to earn a permanent role in the Washington passing attack. During this stretch, Brown has seen at least six targets in all but two games. Seeing him draw an impressive target share for some time, fantasy managers in deeper formats should view Brown as a decent high-floor flex option heading into a Week 13 tilt against the Tennessee Titans.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught five of his six targets for 102 yards and a score in their loss to the Dallas Cowboys. McLaurin was held in check through most of the afternoon but finally broke free as he tallied an 86-yard score late in the fourth quarter to set up the potential game-tying extra-point attempt. Even though McLaurin was having a quiet game, Daniels still looked his way six times, which was third most on the team, behind only Noah Brown and Zach Ertz. Given his big-play ability, fantasy managers should still view him as a must-start option in Week 13 when he faces the Tennessee Titans.

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler (undisclosed) left Sunday's game with an undisclosed injury. Ekeler sustained this injury on a kickoff return in the final minutes. After taking the hit, the running back remained on the field for some time but was able to walk off with assistance from the training staff. Before the injury, Ekeler carried the ball nine times for 22 yards and caught two of his three targets for three yards. With Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) leaving the game twice, Ekeler saw most of the snaps for a majority of the afternoon. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status heading into a Week 13 tilt against the Tennessee Titans. If he happens to miss time, Jeremy McNichols could see a significant increase in snaps.Update:Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reported that Austin Ekeler suffered a concussion.

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels enjoyed a big second half but could not complete the comeback against the Dallas Cowboys as he went 25-for-38 with 275 yards, two passing scores, 74 rushing yards, and an additional rushing score. After a slow first half where the Washington offense scored only three points, Daniels flipped the switch and put 23 on the board in the final 30 minutes. Daniels tallied a rushing score in the third quarter and tacked on two passing scores in the final frame. One was a four-yard strike to Zach Ertz, and the other was an 86-yard catch-and-run to Terry McLaurin. This was a nice bounce-back showing for Daniels, as he has scored just one total touchdown in his previous two games. Despite the slow start, fantasy managers should continue to view Daniels as a QB1 heading into Week 13 when he faces the Tennessee Titans.
