Scouting report

WAS RB Antonio Gibson - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at San Francisco 49ers

Antonio Gibson had a pretty bad outing last week, rushing five times for 21 yards, adding just two catches for six yards (on four targets). Gibson delivered in return leagues, though, as he had 93 kickoff return yards. We don't anticipate Gibson turning things around in Week 16 as he draws a brutal matchup against the 49ers who have given up the fewest average fantasy points to running backs this season. Gibson could be valuable if Washington uses him as a receiving threat, as the 49ers have given up the 12th-most receptions to running backs this season. But Gibson is only averaging 3.1 receptions per game this year. Gibson isn't much more than a desperation flex play for Week 16.

WAS RB Antonio Gibson - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. New York Giants

Antonio Gibson had a decent game his last time out, rushing for 39 yards while catching two of his four targets for 20 yards. He also added 27 yards on kickoff returns. Gibson surprisingly hasn't been a huge reception threat despite the absence of J.D. McKissic. And his touches on the ground are split due to Brian Robinson receiving the bulk of the carries. It leaves Gibson without much room to do anything. He's still relevant enough to be a decent RB3/flex option, especially in a favorable Week 15 matchup against the Giants (23rd aFPA). Gibson's health (foot) will be worth monitoring, though.

WAS RB Antonio Gibson - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at New York Giants

Antonio Gibson wasn't utilized as much last week, rushing nine times for 32 yards while catching three passes for 22 yards (three targets). Since J.D. McKissic's injury, Gibson had been seeing a few more touches than what he had last week. Although Gibson popped up on the injury report (foot) this week, so that could explain things. Gibson's injury status will be worth monitoring, but even if he's active, it's not an ideal scenario for him. He'll get a tough Giants defense (9th aFPA), and will be splitting touches with a foot injury. He's not much more than an RB3 option in Week 13.

WAS RB Antonio Gibson - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Atlanta Falcons

Despite Brian Robinson being the bruising back, Antonio Gibson actually led Washington in carries last week, rushing 18 times for 72 yards. He also caught three passes for 31 yards on three targets. Gibson's maintained a solid role for Washington despite it looking for a while there like Robinson was about to take his job. Gibson has a career-high 3.4 receptions per game, and is averaging a solid 66.2 scrimmage yards. He gets a favorable matchup this week vs. the Falcons (25th aFPA) where he should be viewed as a solid RB2 play.

WAS RB Antonio Gibson - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Houston Texans

Antonio Gibson appeared to be headed towards irrelevancy in fantasy, but he's maintained a solid role in Washington. Last week he ran the ball 14 times (matching his season-high) for 44 yards and a touchdown. He also saw three targets, finishing with three receptions for 14 yards. Brian Robinson started in Week 6, and since then Gibson has averaged 62.4 scrimmage yards per game. He's likely benefitted somewhat from J.D. McKissic (neck) being out of the picture, but it's been promising for Gibson. He should continue a similar type of production this week in a favorable matchup against the Texans (32nd aFPA). We'd expect Washington to keep a similar run-heavy approach between Robinson and Gibson this week like they did in Week 10. Gibson should be viewed as a solid RB2 play.

WAS RB Antonio Gibson - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Philadelphia Eagles

Antonio Gibson was OK last week, rushing 11 times for 36 yards while finishing 2-11 on three targets. He also added 68 yards on two kickoff returns. With J.D. McKissic inactive, we thought we'd see Gibson more involved as a receiver, but that obviously didn't happen. It still could happen, though, as McKissic is likely to miss a stretch of games with a neck issue. Even just with McKissic being inactive, we saw Gibson more involved last week as he played 58% of the offensive snaps, his highest mark since Week 1 this season and the first time he's played over 40% since the return of Brian Robinson. With a decent matchup vs. the Eagles (17th aFPA), Gibson should be viewed as a solid RB2 play in Week 10. Gibson was OK against Philly earlier in the year, finishing with 40 scrimmage yards and a touchdown.

WAS RB Antonio Gibson - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Minnesota Vikings

The arrival of Brian Robinson has oddly made Antonio Gibson more productive for Washington. Gibson was highly involved as a receiver last week, finishing 7-58-1 on seven targets while adding 19 yards on seven carries. He also returned two kickoffs for 41 yards. Gibson has now scored in back-to-back weeks, so even though his playing time has been reduced, he's still pretty involved in this offense. He does get a fairly tough matchup against the Vikings this week, though. Gibson should be viewed as a low-end RB2 or a strong RB3/flex play for Week 9.
