Jaret Patterson, Peyton Barber To Battle For Roster Spot
3 years agoWith the release of running back Lamar Miller, Washington Football Team running backs Jaret Patterson and Peyton Barber will battle it out for the third spot on the depth chart behind Antonio Gibson and J.D. McKissic. Patterson and Barber will need to impress in the team's second preseason game on Friday against the Cincinnati Bengals in order to secure a spot on the roster. Gibson and McKissic should get some work with the first-team offense on the first few drives, so the remainder of the game will likely be a competition between the two fighting for their jobs. Patterson was impressive in Washington's first preseason game, racking up 70 total yards on 14 touches. Barber scored a touchdown last week and will likely get the work close to the goal line again, so both can be viable options in DFS formats.
