Scouting report

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Minnesota Vikings

J.D. McKissic ran the ball twice for six yards last week, and caught three passes for 14 yards on five targets. McKissic averaged 4.8 receptions for 30.5 yards in the four games before Brian Robinson returned, and has averaged 2.0 receptions for 12.8 yards in the four games since. Washington has been utilizing Antonio Gibson out of the backfield more with Robinson handling ground duties, leaving scraps left for McKissic. There just aren't enough touches for McKissic at this point to make him someone worth playing in fantasy.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Indianapolis Colts

J.D. McKissic played a season-low 16% of the offensive snaps last week, and it showed in the box score. He ran the ball just once for four yards and had no receptions on two targets. This now makes back-to-back games with no receptions for McKissic, which has been the only reason he's been relevant in fantasy in recent years. Unless something changes, McKissic is droppable in fantasy.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Green Bay Packers

J.D. McKissic ran the ball twice last week for 20 yards. He saw three targets out of the backfield, but surprisingly finished with no receptions. With Brian Robinson starting, and Washington playing in a close game, McKissic ended up playing a season-low 30% of the offensive snaps. As we've mentioned before, McKissic's role relies heavily on game flow. Many of his productive games actually come on just two offensive drives where he catches a handful of passes in hurry-up offense. McKissic isn't much more than a desperation flex play in PPR formats for Week 7.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Chicago Bears

J.D. McKissic maintained his usual role as a receiving back, proving that the return of Brian Robinson won't impact him as much. McKissic saw seven targets in Week 5, finishing 5-37 (with no carries). McKissic is fourth among running backs this season in receptions (24) while averaging 44.8 scrimmage yards with no touchdowns. He's very reliant on game scripts, but luckily for him, the Commanders aren't great, so the game script goes McKissic's way more often than not. He'll be an RB3/flex play in PPR formats in Week 6.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Tennessee Titans

J.D. McKissic saw a season-high eight rush attempts last week, finishing with 40 yards on the ground. In his usual role as a receiving back, McKissic finished just 3-16 on four targets, despite a favorable game script. As we mentioned last week, McKissic's role is very volatile. On weeks where he has high receptions, it's usually due to a single hurry-up drive where he just catches 3-4 dump off passes. We should also mention that there's a chance Brian Robinson returns in Week 5, although we'd project that impacts Antonio Gibson more than it does McKissic. Either way, McKissic will be a risky option as his production heavily relies on the game script going his way. He's not much more than a desperation flex play in Week 5.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Dallas Cowboys

J.D. McKissic has been keeping up his receiving role in this Washington offense. Through three games he's finished 3-20, 7-54 and 6-32 as a receiver. Last week he saw a season-high nine targets, but seven of those targets came on Washington's final two drives of the game. He's a very situational player who is very reliant on game flow. Plus his production is really only valuable in full PPR formats since he hasn't found the end zone all season. He gets a fairly tough matchup against the Cowboys this week. McKissic is avoidable in standard, a desperation flex in half-PPR and a low-end flex option in full PPR for Week 4.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Philadelphia Eagles

J.D. McKissic looked like his past self in Week 2, seeing seven targets. He hauled in every target, finishing 7-54 while adding nine yards on three carries. McKissic will always be a somewhat unreliable option as his usage relies heavily on game flow. For instance, four of his 10 touches came in a seven-play span on Washington's second-to-last drive of the game. He's not much more than a low-end flex play this week, only really viable in PPR formats.
