Austin Ekeler To IR
Austin Ekeler To IR
The Commanders placed RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) on IR, knocking him out for at least the next four games. Washington has a Week 14 bye, so we won't see Ekeler again until Week 18 at the earliest. He can be dropped from all redraft rosters. Jeremy McNichols will slide in as the Commanders' No. 2 RB with Ekeler out, but we could also see RB Brian Robinson get more work in the passing game.
Brian Robinson Will Play Week 13, Austin Ekeler Out
Brian Robinson Will Play Week 13, Austin Ekeler Out
Commanders RB Brian Robinson (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 13 injury report after putting in a full practice on Friday. He'll play vs. the Titans this weekend -- and it looks like he'll be ready for a significant role. RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) has been ruled out. That figures to leave Jeremy McNichols as the No. 2 RB, but he'd be a desperation fantasy start.
Brian Robinson Limited Wednesday, Austin Ekeler Out
Brian Robinson Limited Wednesday, Austin Ekeler Out
Commanders RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. He's unlikely to be cleared in time for this weekend's game vs. the Titans. RB Brian Robinson (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday, though, giving him a chance to play on Sunday. We'll keep you updated on this backfield over the next few days. RBs Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez would handle backfield duties if Ekeler and Robinson are out.
Austin Ekeler Concussed
Austin Ekeler Concussed
Commanders RB Austin Ekeler sustained an apparent concussion on a kick return with less than 15 seconds to go in Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. He appeared to be unconscious on the field but eventually made his way off with assistance. This would be Ekeler's third documented concussion.
Update: HC Dan Quinn confirmed that Ekeler is in concussion protocol.
Rachaad White has overcome workload challenges to score in five consecutive games. Does that -- plus a nice schedule -- make him a buy, sell, or hold?
