  • Not playing Week 18

    McKissic (concussion) wasn't among the players added to Washington's roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's season finale against the Giants.

    Analysis: Considering Washington never designated McKissic to return from injured reserve following his move off the active roster Dec. 21, the decision not to activate him for Week 18 hardly comes as a surprise. Washington will have Antonio Gibson, Jaret Patterson and Jonathan Williams as its available running backs for the finale.

  • Out three more games

    Washington placed McKissic (concussion) on injured reserve Tuesday.

    Analysis: McKissic was already set to miss a third consecutive game Tuesday in Philadelphia, but his move to IR ensures that he'll also remain out Week 16 in Dallas and for the Week 17 rematch with the Eagles in Washington. The Football Team's decision to shut McKissic down through Week 17 doesn't come as a major surprise, as he was unable to practice in any fashion this week. With McKissic deactivated, lead back Antonio Gibson should be in line to pick up more passing-down work, while Jaret Patterson…read more

  • Ruled out Tuesday

    McKissic (concussion) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: McKissic was unable to return to practice this week, and he'll be held out for a third straight game due to a concussion. Jaret Patterson should continue to see a slight uptick in playing time behind Antonio Gibson in Week 15.

  • DNP on Saturday

    McKissic (concussion) didn't practice Saturday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: McKissic has yet to practice this week and has logged very little on-field work since suffering a concussion and neck injury during Week 12 action against the Seahawks. Washington's Week 15 game versus the Eagles has been pushed back from Sunday to Tuesday due to COVID-19 concerns within the Football Team, giving him a bit more time to get through the league's five phases of the protocol for head injuries. Having said that, McKissic appears to be trending toward a third straight absence, which…read more

  • Washington-Eagles moved to Tuesday

    McKissic (concussion) and Washington will no longer play the Eagles on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.

    Analysis: Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within Washington's organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Football Team will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. Though McKissic isn't one of the several Washington players who has tested positive for the virus, he could benefit from the two-day delay, given that he has yet to clear the five-step concussion protocol. Even so, considering McKissic hadn't resumed…read more

  • Idle for another practice

    McKissic (concussion) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: McKissic looked to be advancing through the concussion protocol last week after he managed limited practices Thursday and Friday before being ruled out in advance of Washington's 27-20 loss to Dallas, but the running back appears to have since suffered a setback. He's now been listed as a non-participant in two straight practices, which suggests his absence from Wednesday's session wasn't merely a maintenance day. Even if he gets back on the field as a limited participant Friday, McKissic will…read more

  • Not practicing

    McKissic (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Washington hasn't indicated if McKissic's absence from practice is the result of a setback or just a matter of caution, after the running back logging limited practices last Thursday and Friday. He missed the past two games, giving starter Antonio Gibson more work on passing downs, while Wendell Smallwood (Week 13) and Jonathan Williams (Week 14) also got a few looks in depth roles. It's unclear if McKissic will be back for Sunday's game in Philadelphia.

  • Inactive for second straight week

    McKissic (concussion) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: McKissic made enough progress through the NFL's five-step concussion protocol this week to return to practice as a limited participant Thursday and Friday, but he doesn't appear to have been deemed ready for full contact or cleared by an independent neurologist. As such, he'll remain out for a second straight game, which should give top back Antonio Gibson a clear path to a three-down role once again. In addition to carrying 23 times for 88 yards, Gibson drew six targets -- one short of his…read more

  • Unlikely to play Week 14

    McKissic (concussion) remains listed as questionable but is considered unlikely to play in Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: After sitting out the Week 13 win over the Raiders, McKissic returned to practice this week as a limited participant Thursday and Friday, but he doesn't look like he's received clearance from an independent neurologist, the final step in the running back exiting the concussion protocol. As a result, McKissic appears likely to miss his second consecutive game, potentially paving the way for Antonio Gibson to take on an expanded role as a pass catcher in addition to his normal role as…read more

  • Questionable, still in protocol

    McKissic (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McKissic was a limited practice participant Friday and remains in the concussion protocol. He's still hoping to gain clearance before Sunday, after Antonio Gibson and Wendell Smallwood split McKissic's usual snaps in the win over Las Vegas last week.

  • Gets in limited practice

    McKissic (concussion) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Matthew Paras of The Washington Times reports.

    Analysis: Since being diagnosed with a concussion following Washington's Week 12 win over the Seahawks, McKissic was listed as a non-participant in four consecutive practices and sat out a Week 13 win over Las Vegas along the way. His ability to turn in a limited practice Thursday thus marks the first step forward for McKissic as he works his way through the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. According to Ben Standig of The Athletic, McKissic was spotted taking part in position drills during the open…read more

  • No practice

    McKissic (concussion) did some work on a side field Wednesday but didn't take part in practice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: McKissic was injured in a Week 12 win over Seattle last Monday and didn't practice at all Week 13 ahead of his absence in Washington's victory over the Raiders. His ability to work on the side suggests he's at least starting to progress through the concussion protocol, but it isn't yet clear if he'll be back for Sunday's matchup with the Cowboys. If not, Washington could again use the combination of Antonio Gibson and Wendell Smallwood on passing downs, though the team did add another back…read more

  • Out with concussion

    McKissic (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McKissic hasn't practiced since suffering the injury in Monday's 17-15 win over the Seahawks. His absence leaves passing-down snaps in the hands of either starter Antonio Gibson, rookie Jaret Patterson or practice-squad player Wendell Smallwood. It could be a mix of the two, or perhaps even all three.

  • Still not practicing

    McKissic (concussion) wasn't seen on the field during the open portion of Friday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McKissic appears headed toward his third straight missed practice after suffering the concussion in Monday's win over the Seahawks. The 28-year-old will need to fully clear the five-step concussion protocol before being able to participate in full contact work, which is unlikely to happen ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Raiders. If McKissic is sidelined this week, Wendell Smallwood could be promoted from the practice squad to offer another pass-catching option out of the backfield, though…read more

  • Missing from practice

    McKissic (concussion) won't participate in Thursday's practice, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

    Analysis: The fact that McKissic isn't practicing even on a limited basis for the second straight day suggests he hasn't yet made much progress through the NFL's concussion protocol, which he entered after suffering a head/neck injury in Washington's 17-15 win over the Seahawks on Monday. Unless McKissic takes a significant step forward in his recovery and returns to practice Friday, he'll likely be ruled out ahead of this Sunday's game in Las Vegas. If that's the case, Wendell Smallwood could be…read more

  • In concussion protocol

    McKissic didn't practice Wednesday due to a concussion.

    Analysis: McKissic suffered a scare in Monday's game after his helmet hit off a Seahawks defender, causing him to stay on the turf for multiple minutes. He required a cart to get to the locker room, with reports after the game indicating that he was tending to a neck injury. However, upon the release of Washington's first Week 13 practice report, McKissic was revealed to have entered the NFL's concussion protocol. Clearly in the early phases due to his lack of activity Wednesday, he likely will need to…read more

    McKissic (neck) isn't practicing Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The pass-catching back scored both of Washington's touchdowns in a 17-15 win over Seattle on Monday before exiting after suffering a scary-looking head/neck injury in the fourth quarter. With Antonio Gibson and rookie Jaret Patterson being the only other running backs on Washington's roster, practice-squadder Wendell Smallwood could handle backfield snaps in obvious passing situations if McKissic is unavailable this Sunday in Las Vegas.

  • Diagnosed with neck injury

    McKissic suffered a neck injury in Monday's 17-15 win over the Seahawks, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McKissic hit his head on a defender in the fourth quarter and remained down on the field for several minutes after the collision. He ultimately was carted off the field, though the team doesn't yet know the severity of the injury. Optimistically, teammates said that McKissic was walking around the locker room after the game. More clarification on his status should come as the week progresses.

  • Carted off against Seattle

    McKissic was carted off the field after suffering an apparent head injury in Monday's game against Seattle, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McKissic appeared to hit his head off a defender in the fourth quarter of the game, and he remained down on the field for several minutes after the collision. Prior to his exit, he recorded seven carries for 30 yards and a touchdown and also added five receptions for 26 yards and an additional score. After the game, coach Ron Rivera stated that he did not have an update on McKissic's status, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports. Given that, it's unclear whether McKissic may be ready to…read more

  • Ready for Monday

    McKissic (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Monday's game versus the Seahawks, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McKissic was limited at practice this week due to the ankle issue, but he'll be ready to go for Monday's contest. The 28-year-old should continue to operate as the primary pass-catching option out of the backfield for Washington.

  • Limited at practice

    McKissic (ankle) remained limited Friday at practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: The same goes for fellow RB Antonio Gibson, though in his case the LP tags have been the norm for a while now as he continues to play through a stress fracture in his shin. McKissic, on the other hand, has mostly been healthy this season, and his ability to practice Thursday and Friday -- even on a limited basis -- suggests he has a good chance to play Monday night against the Seahawks.

  • Dealing with ankle issue

    McKissic (ankle) is listed as limited on Thursday's practice report.

    Analysis: As was Antonio Gibson, who continues to have practice limitations due to a stress fracture in his shin. Gibson hasn't missed any game action due to the injury this season, which has relegated McKissic to a secondary role out of Washington's backfield. Behind Gibson's 17.3 touches per game, McKissic has averaged 7.9 touches for 55.3 total yards per game while scoring two TDs in 10 appearances.

  • Gets eight touches

    McKissic rushed seven times for 46 yards and caught one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's 27-21 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: McKissic ripped off a long run of 15 yards, fueling an overall efficient day on the ground by his standards. In fact, McKissic's rushing yardage total marked his highest of the season, helping compensate for his unusually low involvement through the air. Coming off Sunday's win, McKissic will now turn his attention toward Week 12's matchup versus the Seahawks.

  • Garners 39 total yards in win

    McKissic rushed two times for four yards and secured all four targets for 35 yards in Washington's 29-19 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Washington often finds itself in game scripts that result in McKissic seeing plenty of work in the passing game during the second half, but that surprisingly wasn't the case Sunday. With his team in the lead throughout, McKissic logged a modest amount of targets by his standards but still checked in second on the club in receptions. The veteran back has at least four catches in four straight games and is likely to remain similarly involved in a Week 11 road trip to Carolina to face the Panthers.

  • Leading receiver in loss

    McKissic carried the ball three times for 10 yards and caught all eight of his targets for 83 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: Washington split its backfield workload evenly between McKissic, Antonio Gibson and Jaret Patterson, but McKissic was by far the most effective option and led the club in catches and receiving yards. The 28-year-old heads into a Week 9 bye with 20 receptions on 24 targets for 182 yards over the last three games in addition to 77 rushing yards.

  • Modest workload Sunday

    McKissic ran for 22 yards on four carries while catching four passes on six targets for 34 yards against Green Bay on Sunday.

    Analysis: McKissic produced efficiently against the Packers defense, but some of his usage was likely poached by Taylor Heinicke, who ran for 95 yards on 10 carries. If a couple of those Heinicke carries turn to McKissic targets then the pass-catching specialist could have seen a sizeable boost to his fantasy point total. McKissic should remain steadily involved as Washington heads to Denver on Sunday, especially with starter Antonio Gibson seemingly still bothered by his shin issue.

  • Tops 100 total yards

    McKissic rushed the ball eight times for 45 yards in Sunday's 31-13 loss to Kansas City. He added eight receptions for 65 yards.

    Analysis: McKissic saw a season-high eight rushing attempts, in part because Antonio Gibson was battling both shin and calf injuries. Even with increased activity on the ground, McKissic did the majority of his damage as a receiver serving as a checkdown option for Taylor Heinicke. McKissic topped 100 total yards for the first time this season and has racked up multiple receptions in four of six contests. If Gibson is forced to miss time, McKissic would likely share the backfield with Jaret Patterson.

    McKissic (ankle) practiced fully Thursday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: After a limited showing at Wednesday's session, McKissic was uninhibited one day later. At the same time, lead back Antonio Gibson (shin) followed up a DNP on Wednesday with limited work Thursday. Both running backs appear to be trending in the right direction for Sunday's game against the Saints, but Friday's injury report may provide a better picture of Washington's backfield situation upon its release. While McKissic had a quiet Week 1 -- one carry and no catches -- he's been more involved…read more

    Analysis: Washington's skill-position players are banged up at the moment, with two running backs and three wide receivers appearing on the Week 5 injury report, while tight end Logan Thomas (hamstring) landed on injured reserve Wednesday. McKissic himself may be healthier than starting back Antonio Gibson (shin), who didn't practice to kick off the week. Gibson did the same last Thursday before suiting up Week 4 in Atlanta, but McKissic still picked up a season-high 12 touches for 59 yards from…read more

  • Scores game-winning TD

    McKissic took seven carries for 15 yards and caught each of his five targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-30 win over Atlanta.

    Analysis: Quiet for most of the game, McKissic made a late charge with Washington in comeback mode in the fourth quarter, a script similar to his Week 2 outing against the Giants. He again saved his best for last, taking a delayed screen pass for a diving, 30-yard touchdown to give Washington the lead (and convert a 3rd-and-7) with 33 seconds remaining in Sunday's game. McKissic did come up short of the goal line on a two-point conversion attempt on the next snap, but Washington held on for a win to…read more

  • Held to 38 total yards

    McKissic took three carries for 23 yards and caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 43-21 loss to Buffalo.

    Analysis: McKissic had a big Week 2, but his workload through three games is far from promising, with the satellite back averaging only 3.0 targets and 2.7 carries per game. Lead back Antonio Gibson has actually seen one more target (nine to eight), including a 73-yard TD catch in Sunday's loss. Next up for Gibson and McKissic is a Week 4 contest in Atlanta.

  • Shines in dramatic win

    McKissic caught five of six targets for 83 yards and took four carries for 10 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 30-29 win over the Giants.

    Analysis: It was a huge turnaround after the pass-catching back got just one carry and one target in the Week 1 loss to Los Angeles. It initially looked like more of the same Thursday night, but McKissic was steadily involved once he got his first touch midway through the second quarter. He even scored a two-yard TD on a 3rd-and-1 shortly before halftime, and his 56-yard catch in the fourth quarter set up a TD strike to TE Ricky Seals-Jones on the next play. Meanwhile, Antonio Gibson had 13 carries for…read more

  • Quiet in season debut

    McKissic had one carry for eight yards and one incomplete target in Sunday's 2016 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: McKissic played 36 percent of snaps on offense, mostly replacing Antonio Gibson in obvious passing situations. Pretty much everything worked against McKissic in this one, with QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (hip) exiting early and Washington ultimately attempting only 21 passes in a game where the opponent dominated possession. McKissic should see a few more touches Thursday night against the Giants, but it does seem the backfield split has shifted more toward Gibson (20 carries, five targets Sunday) in…read more

  • Could see more work sans Samuel

    McKissic can help Washington deal with Curtis Samuel's absence while the wide receiver is on injured reserve with a groin injury, according to Ben Standig of The Athletic.

    Analysis: It doesn't mean McKissic will return to his 2020 role, as Washington now has a slot specialist in the form of Adam Humphries, while perimeter wideouts Cam Sims and Dyami Brown figure to be the more direct replacements for Samuel in terms of snap count. However, McKissic can do some of the same things as Samuel on short passes and jet sweeps, albeit without the extra gear that his injured teammate has when healthy. It thus stands to reason that McKissic could get a few extra snaps and touches…read more

  • Involved only as receiver

    McKissic was targeted once and tallied one reception for four yards in Friday's preseason game against the Bengals.

    Analysis: McKissic didn't see a rushing attempt, as both Antonio Gibson and Jaret Patterson handled carries with presumed starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. Instead, McKissic recorded his lone touch of the game on a third-down reception that was just short of a first down. McKissic figures to serve primarily as a receiver out of Washington's backfield, with Antonio Gibson and Peyton Barber likely positioned to handle carries ahead of him.

  • Appears safe in backup role

    McKissic seemingly enters the upcoming season with a decent amount of job security as Washington's No. 2 running back, Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: McKissic's solid work on passing downs makes him the top option behind Antonio Gibson, but that doesn't mean the former will dominate carries if Gibson gets injured. In the two games Gibson missed last season, McKissic averaged 12.0 carries for 59.5 yards and 5.5 catches for 37.0 yards, while Peyton Barber averaged 8.0 carries for 21.0 yards. Barber is still on the roster, along with fellow veteran backs Lamar Miller and Jonathan Williams and rookie undrafted free agent Jaret Patterson. None of…read more

  • Enjoys career highs in 2020

    McKissic finished the 2020 season with 85 carries for 365 yards and a touchdown and 80 catches for 589 yards and two TDs on 110 targets.

    Analysis: His long gain among 165 touches went for only 29 yards, but McKissic otherwise had a career year, establishing personal bests for carries, rushing yards, receptions and receiving yards. He's under contract with Washington for one more season, though it's possible his role is scaled back if Antonio Gibson shows progress as a pass catcher throughout spring and summer. McKissic will turn 28 in August, and he's scheduled for a $1 million base salary in 2021.

  • Slowed by Eagles

    McKissic carried twice for no yards and recorded five catches for 30 yards in Sunday's 20-14 win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: Antonio Gibson took on more work in his second game back from a toe injury, handling 20 touches and a 59 percent snap share. McKissic still managed to tie Terry McLaurin for the team lead in targets, and Washington may need to use its scatback more this weekend in a wild-card game against the Buccaneers and their fearsome run defense.

  • Finds end zone on long reception

    McKissic rushed the ball four times for 15 yards in Week 16 against the Panthers. He added eight receptions on 10 targets for 77 yards and a touchdown.

    Analysis: Game script benefitted McKissic, as Washington quickly fell behind 13-0. That allowed him to excel as a receiver, with his best play coming on a 29-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter. Even with uncertainty at quarterback and the return of Antonio Gibson, McKissic has continued to produce and has combined for 133 receiving yards across his last two games. He and Washington will draw a Week 17 matchup against the Eagles.

  • Racks up 107 total yards in loss

    McKissic rushed 13 times for 51 yards and secured nine of 10 targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Washington's 20-15 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

    Analysis: Facing the team he spent the first three seasons of his career with, McKissic was heavily involved during what was a second straight absence for Antonio Gibson (toe). The veteran easily paced the backfield in carries and rushing yards, and he was second only to Logan Thomas in receptions on Washington. McKissic's six-yard touchdown grab with 7:16 remaining qualified as his first score of the season as well, and he now has three games with at least nine catches on the campaign. McKissic once…read more

  • Contributes 86 scrimmage yards

    McKissic carried 11 times for 68 yards and caught two of four targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 23-15 win over the 49ers.

    Analysis: McKissic's involvement increased with Antonio Gibson (toe) sidelined, and he finished with his highest carry total of the season, albeit at the expense of some targets. His usage in the passing game also suffered after Alex Smith (calf) was injured, leaving Dwayne Haskins to lead the offense. McKissic could see his role as a pass-catcher climb back up next Sunday against the Seahawks if Smith is able to play, but his carries will almost certainly decrease if Gibson returns to the lineup.

  • Heightened Week 14 role awaits

    McKissic is expected to handle the bulk of the work out of the Washington backfield Sunday against the 49ers with Antonio Gibson (toe) considered unlikely to play, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

    Analysis: Washington hasn't officially ruled Gibson out for Week 14, but he seems to be trending toward his first absence of the season after being diagnosed with a case of turf toe following his early departure in Monday's win over the Steelers. With Gibson leaving the contest after he was on the field for just four plays, McKissic stepped in to lead the Washington backfield with a 74 percent snap share, while Peyton Barber drew only a 33 percent share. Barber still outpaced McKissic in carries (14 to…read more

  • Makes 10 grabs in win

    McKissic rushed five times for eight yards and caught all 10 of his targets for 70 yards in Monday's 23-17 win over the Steelers.

    Analysis: McKissic saw his role expand after starting tailback Antonio Gibson exited during the first quarter with a toe injury and never returned. McKissic set a new career high by hauling in double-digit passes for the first time, which also yielded a personal best in yardage. Should Gibson's status for Week 14 be impacted by his injury, McKissic's stock would figure to rise going into the fantasy playoff season.

  • Manages just three touches

    McKissic rushed once for six yards and caught both targets for 21 yards in Thursday's 41-16 win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Despite playing 41 percent of the snaps on offense, McKissic rarely touched the ball, taking a back seat to the Antonio Gibson show. Gibson carried 20 times for 115 yards and three touchdowns and caught five passes for 21 yards. It's going to be tough to provide Gibson anything short of a bell-cow role moving forward, so McKissic's role will fluctuate as a pass catcher. He's just two weeks removed from a 15-target outing, so fantasy managers would be wise to stash him on the bench for the time…read more

  • Racks up 69 scrimmage yards

    McKissic rushed six times for 43 yards and caught three of four targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 20-9 win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: McKissic was less involved as a pass-catcher after drawing at least six targets in five of the previous six games, but he delivered his second-highest rushing yardage total of the season while topping seven yards per attempt. Fellow running back Antonio Gibson got 16 carries and scored his fifth touchdown in the last four games, as Washington continues to get both the shifty McKissic and the powerful Gibson involved heading into a Thanksgiving Day matchup against a generous Dallas defense.

  • Scores, adds seven catches

    McKissic carried eight times for six yards and a touchdown while catching seven of 15 targets for an additional 43 yards during Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Lions.

    Analysis: McKissic averaged just 0.8 yards per carry but managed to score his first touchdown of the season on a one-yard plunge in the third quarter. He mostly made his mark as a receiver and his 15 targets easily led the team, while his seven grabs tied for first. McKissic has been targeted a whopping 29 times over the last two games and will clearly maintain a large role in the offense most weeks when game flow allows, especially with the typically conservative Alex Smith at the helm.

  • Huge role in pass-catching realm

    McKissic caught nine of a team-high 14 targets for 65 receiving yards, adding three rushes for 17 yards during Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: McKissic dominated both the RB and the team pass-catching workload, as he attracted as many targets as Washington's second- and third-highest targeted players combined (Terry McLaurin at eight targets, and Logan Thomas at six). The running back's passing game role has been steady for over the past month now, as McKissic has garnered six-plus catches in four of his past five outings, averaging 42 receiving yards per game during that span.

    McKissic carried five times for 35 yards and caught both his targets for an additional 16 yards during Sunday's 25-3 win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: McKissic was quite effective as a ball carrier, averaging 7.0 yards per carry, but he didn't make his usual impact as a pass catcher with his team playing from ahead throughout the game. He could have more passes thrown his way in Week 9 against the Giants following the WFT's Week 8 bye, but he seems unlikely to take over as the lead back anytime soon after Antonio Gibson erupted for 128 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries in this one. As such, McKissic should be left on the bench in the…read more

    McKissic rushed eight times for 41 yards and secured all six targets for 43 yards in the Washington Football Team's 20-19 loss to the Giants on Sunday.

    Analysis: McKissic continued to enjoy a steady role in the offense, outpacing backfield mate Antonio Gibson in total touches by one and posting at least six receptions for the third straight game. The eight carries tied a season high for McKissic, who appears to have a relatively modest but consistent role as a pass-catching option that can occasionally see larger-than-expected opportunity on the ground. McKissic will look to build on Sunday's season-best effort versus the Cowboys in Week 7.

  • Leads team in targets

    McKissic caught six passes for 48 yards on a team-high eight targets in Sunday's 30-10 loss to the Rams, adding one carry for three yards.

    Analysis: Washington struggled to move the ball with Kyle Allen (arm) and then Alex Smith at quarterback, trailing by multiple scores for most of the game and never finding any success throwing downfield. The familiar game script -- it was the team's fourth straight loss by 14 or more points -- allowed McKissic to stay heavily involved, but it was still Antonio Gibson who dominated work on the ground with 11 carries for 27 yards.

    Analysis: McKissic ceded the majority of the work on the ground to Antonio Gibson but still remained heavily involved in the passing attack out of the backfield. Though he lost a fumble to end Washington's second offensive possession, the team continued to turn to him as a receiver as they fell behind Baltimore early in the contest. While primarily a dump-off option, McKissic did turn in receptions of 12 and 11 yards to pace his yardage total. Washington will likely be playing catch up again in Week 5…read more

    Analysis: McKissic saw his carries slashed from his Week 2 performance as he failed to get going on the ground against the Browns. However, he did manage to produce through the air, paced by a 26-yard reception that set up a rushing touchdown for Antonio Gibson in the third quarter. McKissic's production on the ground has varied widely through three weeks, and he had failed to contribute through the air prior to his Week 3 performance. That makes him a volatile producer for the team's Week 4 matchup…read more

    McKissic carried the ball eight times for 53 yards in Sunday's 30-15 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Remarkably, the fifth-year receiving back didn't even get a target in the game, but he carved out a large share of the backfield workload due to his efficiency on the ground. Meanwhile, Antonio Gibson led the backfield with 13 touches and Peyton Barber was held to only one carry. McKissic could see solid volume again in Week 3, although more of it might come through the air as Washington tries to keep pace with a Browns offense that just piled up 35 points against the Bengals.

  • Finishes with negative yardage

    McKissic played 44 percent of offensive snaps in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Eagles, taking three carries for a loss of two yards and catching one of five targets for one yard.

    Analysis: McKissic actually led the Washington backfield in snap share, but his opportunities didn't result in any production, while Peyton Barber had a pair of goal-line touchdowns and Antonio Gibson picked up 44 yards on 11 touches. McKissic and Gibson both were on the field for the first snap of the game, and it was a pretty even three-way split throughout the afternoon.

    Coach Ron Rivera said Wednesday that McKissic "just happened to be put first" on Washington's unofficial depth chart, reiterating that the team will use a committee in the backfield, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: It was interesting to see McKissic listed in the top spot, but Rivera essentially confirms that it doesn't actually mean much. Depth charts typically are produced by PR departments, and in Washington's case, there was no obvious order for the running backs. Reports from beat writers suggest McKissic, Antonio Gibson and Peyton Barber will all have roles Sunday against the Eagles, while Bryce Love is a wild card to potentially make it a four-man committee instead of three.

    Washington listed McKissic as its No. 1 running back on the unofficial depth chart the team released Tuesday, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.

    Analysis: Though McKissic sits atop the depth chart, his presence there shouldn't be viewed as confirmation that he'll start or receive the majority of the snaps and touches out of the backfield in Sunday's season opener versus the Eagles. Instead, Stackpole speculates that Washington will make use of all four of its running backs in Week 1, with multiple backs occasionally sharing the field together.

    With Washington cutting Adrian Peterson on Friday, McKissic could be the No. 2 running back, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Washington has cut both Derrius Guice and Adrian Peterson this offseason, and while Antonio Gibson is presumed to be the main beneficiary, he's a rookie with no preseason experience. On the other hand, McKissic has a proven, unique skillset, and last season he rushed 38 times for 205 yards (5.4 yards per carry) and caught 34 of 42 targets for 233 yards and a touchdown for the Lions.

Of course, Finlay also mentioned McKissic's struggles at the position in the same tweet, so it's likely just an interesting footnote for a team still trying to figure out its optimal pass-catching rotation.

  • Still ticketed for same role

    McKissic's projected role hasn't changed after the Washington Football team released Derrius Guice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: A pure passing-down specialist, McKissic has 91 targets and 88 carries in 35 career NFL appearances, though he did manage 5.4 YPC on his 38 totes for Detroit last year. A $1 million guarantee on his two-year contract suggests the 27-year-old should have a spot on the regular-season roster, but his role has come into question ever since Washington used a third-round pick on runner/receiver hybrid Antonio Gibson. The rookie could steal passing downs from McKissic at some point this year.

With Derrius Guice and Adrian Peterson leading Washington's backfield, McKissic will likely work as a pass-catching option.

    McKissic didn't have a rushing attempt and caught one of two targets for four yards during Sunday's 23-20 loss to Green Bay.

    Analysis: Detroit's ability to mount a two-touchdown lead at halftime meant the Lions spent most of the game trying to run out the clock. Had the score been reversed, it's possible McKissic's receiving chops could have played a bigger role in the offense. However, that wasn't the case, and McKissic ultimately saw just a handful of snaps while Kerryon Johnson and Bo Scarbrough once again led the way on the ground.

Upon his departure in the third quarter, though, McKissic had just one two-yard carry and two receptions (on three targets) for seven yards. He's questionable to return, but if he doesn't, Johnson and Wes Hills are the only available Detroit running backs on the game-day roster.

Given Hills' lack of prior experience, McKissic and Johnson look like the best bets for touches out of the backfield, with coach Matt Patricia likely to ride the hot hand of the two.

While the latter continued to be inefficient with his touches, Scarbrough racked up 98 yards on 18 carries and has easily looked like Detroit's best option out of the backfield since Kerryon Johnson (knee) went down.

    Analysis: McKissic seemed poised to take on a larger share of the carries in this one but the newly signed Bo Scarbrough led the team in that regard. McKissic did pace the backfield in targets, receptions and receiving yards, but he still didn't make an overly impressive impact in that area. McKissic seems limited to change-of-pace and pass-catching duties, regardless of the team's depth chart situation, and this should remain the case next Sunday against the Redskins.

    Analysis: Although McKissic didn't get many opportunities on the ground, he led the team in rushing yards while averaging eight yards per carry. He also made an impact as a pass catcher, leading the backfield in receiving yardage thanks in part to a 26-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter. McKissic certainly outperformed Ty Johnson in this one and could play a larger role in next Sunday's road matchup with the Bears.
