Washington Commanders DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) exited Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys and is officially questionable to return. This is the second time he has exited the game, as well as the second time he has been listed as questionable. Robinson did return after exiting the first time, but it remains to be seen whether this apparent re-aggravation of the injury forces him out for the rest of the contest. At the time of his departure, Robinson had 13 rushing yards and 11 receiving yards. Austin Ekeler and Jeremy McNichols will lead Washington's backfield for the duration of Robinson's absence.

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) returned to Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. Fantasy managers were anxious when he injured his ankle very early in the contest. However, there was a collective sigh of relief when he was observed walking back to the locker room on his own. But Robinson is back, meaning Austin Ekeler likely won't be as busy.

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC East meeting with the Cowboys. He had only one carry for negative yardage, which is what he will finish with if he can't get back on the field in Week 12. Considering Robinson has been banged up a few times this season, the team may opt to keep him sidelined for the remainder of the contest. If that turns out to be the case, Austin Ekeler would be in line for more work.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Luke McCaffrey hasn't had a productive inaugural year. In 11 appearances this season, the 2024 No. 100 overall pick has only 13 catches for 134 yards. Without a doubt, production like that won't earn him a spot in any fantasy lineup in Week 12 versus the Dallas Cowboys. But McCaffrey may get a chance to show his stuff, so he's worth stashing in dynasty formats in case he shows signs of life in the years ahead.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. will line up across from the Packers in Green Bay on Sunday. In one of his most disappointing fantasy performances of the year, the dual-threat weapon was held to 4.1 half-PPR points in last week's home loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Looking ahead things don't look too promising. The Packers have been the 12th-toughest matchup for opposing wide receivers, and the 49ers will be without quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) and potentially All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams, who is questionable with an ankle injury. It's possible that Samuel Sr. could find rapport with backup QB Brandon Allen at Lambeau Field, but the slump-breaking performance that fantasy managers have been waiting for since Week 6 is less likely now. At least tight end George Kittle (hamstring) is back, hopefully taking some defensive focus off Samuel Sr. between the hash marks. Given the uncertainty regarding San Francisco's offensive efficiency in Week 12, consider Samuel Sr. a mid-range WR2.
