In May, the Redskins used a sixth-round pick on RB Lache Seastrunk, the speedy running back out of Baylor. Saturday morning, Seastrunk told ESPN.com's John Keim in a text that he has been released.

Fantasy Impact: 

It's not uncommon for rookie sixth-rounders to fall short of the 53-man roster but Seastrunk's release is interesting because he gave the Redskins' offense something it was lacking last season: game-breaking speed out of the backfield.

Washington RB Chris Thompson sprained his ankle in the first preseason game and was not at full speed until Monday. Before the injury he was working behind Alfred Morris and Roy Helu. Now, he must show that he’s more worthy than Evan Royster, Silas Redd and Lache Seastrunk.

But Thompson also knows his injury history: a back injury in 2011; torn ACL in 2012; torn labrum in his shoulder in 2013.

“I just have to show them I can make it through some games and I will show them,” he said. “I’ve been hurt a lot. I can deal with pain. I’ll make sure I finish this game out.”

Redskins Beat: 'Not sure' about 20-25 catches for RB Alfred Morris

The Redskins rookie running backs have some flash, but none are ready to be a third-down back. Lache Seastrunk is a fast back, but loves bouncing it outside a little too much. His hands are questionable and he needs work in protection. But that speed is dynamite. Silas Redd, an undrafted free agent, ran with power in the opener. But he, too, is not a third-down back.

So that means Roy Helu should be the third-down back for a second consecutive year. He’s not bad here at all, but they will try to groom someone, perhaps Seastrunk, for this job over the next year.

Alfred Morris is still good. There’s a big gap between Morris and the other runners. But 20-25 catches? Not sure about that one.

Fantasy Impact: 

Morris’s outlook doesn’t change too much. He still isn’t much of a player in the pass game, so his PPR value is on the low side, though he’s a fairly safe start in any format given his steady workload. We are currently projecting 20 catches for Morris, which is just over one per game.

Redskins coach Jay Gruden may have tipped his hand on how many running backs the Redskins will carry. Here is what he said when asked about the status of Evan Royster, who has been with the team as a reserve running back since they drafted him in 2011.

"He's in competition with the rest of them. Right now, we have obviously Alfred [Morris] as the slam dunk and then we have Roy [Helu] who's had a good camp and then we're looking for the other two to step up.”

The emphasis is added. Gruden has said previously that he is looking forward to what fullback Darrel Young can do in his offense so Young, Morris, Helu are locks. Gruden said that they are looking for two more so it looks like the plan is to carry five total running backs.

That would mean that Royster, rookies Lache Seastrunk and Silas Redd, and second-year back Chris Thompson are competing for two roster spots, not just one as some suspect.

Fantasy Impact: 

While nothing is etched in stone, it looks like Helu's job is safe and he should be the third down back with a chance to catch some passes in this offense. Some believed that he would lose out to Thompson, who now looks like he's in a battle to make the team. Young has been a target in the red zone in the past from time to time but never enough to make him fantasy worthy but it sounds like he could have some sort of role again.
