J.D. McKissic

Washington Commanders running back J.D. McKissic (neck) has landed on the injured reserve list and won't play again this season. The 29-year-old had four touchdowns in 2021-22. However, he hasn't had any through eight games this season. McKissic will undergo rehab over the next couple of months, although it's uncertain if he'll be ready to go for the start of the 2023-24 campaign. In the meantime, Antonio Gibson, the No. 2 option on the depth chart, could see a few additional targets out of the ... [Read More]

Washington Commanders running back J.D. McKissic (neck) has been ruled out for the Week 10 contest on Monday night against the undefeated Philadelphia Eagles.

In this performance, McKissic operated in a three-man backfield split with Antonio Gibson and Jonathan Williams that limited the upside of everyone involved. The 29-year-old also didn't have nearly as many receiving opportunities out of the backfield that managers have grown accustomed to seeing when Washington finds themselves in a ... [Read More]

Washington Commanders running back J.D. McKissic should be seen as a desperation start in Week 4. The seventh-year veteran has proven to be largely a game script-dependent receiving back during his time in Washington, and that should be no different against the Dallas Cowboys. However, the silver lining in this matchup is that Dallas has a strong defense against wide receivers. If the Washington wideouts are being shut down for the majority of the game, check-down opportunities could open up ... [Read More]
