J.D. McKissic A Solid Option On Wild-Card Weekend
4 years agoWashington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic had a sneaky good season as a passing-down specialist and faces the ideal matchup in the opening round of the playoffs. McKissic led all running backs with 110 targets this season, and his 80 receptions were second to only Alvin Kamara. Tampa Bay's pass-funnel defense plays right into McKissic's wheelhouse, as the Bucs allowed a league-leading 101 receptions to running backs. McKissic's upside is limited by rookie Antonio Gibson returning last week and handling the bulk of the carries. However, McKissic has a safe floor because of his role in the passing game.
