Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Gets only two touches
McNichols took two carries for nine yards in a 30-23 loss to Baltimore on Sunday.
McNichols had 118 total yards and three TDs on 15 touches over the previous two games, taking on extra work with Austin Ekeler and then Brian Robinson (knee) limited/absent due to injuries. Robinson missed Sunday's game in Baltimore, but the Commanders didn't attempt many rushes against a stout run defense, and McNichols finished without a target despite playing 39 percent of snaps and running 17 routes (just three fewer than Ekeler). McNichols will almost certainly get more touches if Robinson misses another contest Week 7 against Carolina, but Ekeler would still be the much safer bet for volume and production.

Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Gets into end zone again
McNichols carried the ball seven times for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-13 win over the Browns.
Even with Brian Robinson and Austin Ekeler both healthy, McNichols saw a significant workload in the second half of Sunday's rout, capping his day with a three-yard TD run in the third quarter. The Commanders' offense has been potent enough of late that there could be touches available for all three RBs, and McNichols has gotten into the end zone three times in the last two contests, but he's still third in the backfield pecking order heading into a Week 6 meeting with the Ravens.

Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Serving as No. 2 back Sunday
McNichols is in line to serve as the Commanders' No. 2 running back in Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the Cardinals with Austin Ekeler (concussion) inactive for the game.
McNichols logged eight snaps of emergency duty in the Week 3 win over the Bengals on Monday night after Ekeler was forced from the contest. The 2017 fifth-round pick of the Buccaneers has bounced around the NFL over the last seven-plus seasons and has just 91 career carries across 38 regular-season contests, so the threat he represents to lead back Brian Robinson's workload is virtually non-existent. McNichols is a capable pass catcher, however, so he could conceivably have some PPR value in very deep leagues if the Commanders trail in the second half and are forced into frequent passing situations.

Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Two TDs in Ekeler's absence
McNichols rushed eight times for 68 yards and two touchdowns while catching his only target for six yards in Sunday's 42-14 win over the Cardinals.
McNichols got only nine touches to Brian Robinson's 24, but the backup made the most of his additional opportunities in Austin Ekeler's (concussion) absence. McNichols broke free for a 27-yard touchdown run in the second quarter and capped off the scoring with a seven-yard touchdown run in the fourth. If Ekeler's unable to clear concussion protocol before the Commanders host the Browns in Week 5, McNichols would remain in a change-of-pace role behind Robinson.

Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Subs in for Ekeler
McNichols played eight snaps in Monday's 38-33 win at Cincinnati, taking one carry for one yard after replacing Austin Ekeler (concussion).
Brian Robinson unsurprisingly dominated backfield touches after Ekeler's exit in the third quarter, but McNichols delivered a perfect blitz pickup that helped QB Jayden Daniels connect with Terry McLaurin for a game-clinching, 27-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter. While unlikely to take a lot of touches, McNichols should get playing time on passing downs if Ekeler doesn't clear the concussion protocol before a Week 4 contest at Arizona.

Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Draws preseason start
McNichols carried the ball five times for 23 yards in Sunday's 20-10 preseason win over the Patriots.
McNichols had been vying for the third spot on the running back depth chart with Chris Rodriguez throughout camp. He appears to have the upper hand, as he started the game and was the only back to get a carry or target through Washington's first two offensive possessions. That suggests he'll be active and may get a few snaps in a Week 1 matchup against Tampa Bay, though his role is likely to be minimal.

Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Rotates with Rodriguez
McNichols had three carries for 10 yards and one catch for eight yards in Saturday's preseason loss to the Jets.
McNichols and Chris Rodriguez split snaps throughout the first half, after Brian Robinson and Austin Ekeler were removed following the opening drive. It's a good sign for McNichols' chances of at least earning a spot on the practice squad, at which point he could be the injury replacement for Ekeler (while Rodriguez would be the natural fit to fill in for Robinson). McNichols spent most of last year on San Francisco's practice squad, and he's bounced around the league as a passing-down back and special-teams player ever since the Buccaneers took him in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL Draft.
