Trey Quinn Remains A No-Go In Fantasy Lineups
Washington Redskins wide receiver Trey Quinn looked like he might be on the brink of carving out a PPR-relevant role for himself early in the season, hauling in 13 catches for 99 yards and a touchdown in his first three games. Since then, he has seven catches for 36 yards. Even the return of Case […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoPaul Richardson Should Be Ignored In Week 7
Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 3, has caught three or fewer passes in four of six games, and has broken 40 receiving yards just once. His next opponent is a 49ers Defense that is certain to highlight all of those shortcomings for another week, as they have allowed […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoTerry McLaurin Poised For A Letdown Against 49ers
Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin has been his team's lone bright spot on offense in 2019, but he's about to face a 49ers Defense that has dimmed those bright spots on each and every one of its previous adversaries. The Niners create pressure on 33.9% of opponents' drop-backs, which is the second-best rate in […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoRedskins Defense Back To Being A Bad Fantasy Option
The Washington Redskins Defense is allowing an average of 4.6 yards on opposing rushing attempts, and they're about to go up against a 49ers team that has attempted the second-most rushes in the league despite playing one fewer game than a majority of NFL teams. San Francisco's commitment to the run isn't just some stubborn […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoWendell Smallwood In Line For PPR Work
Washington Redskins running back Wendell Smallwood should see a season high in touches in Week 7 with Chris Thompson (toe) out. The downside is that a season high in touches could be defined by as few as seven touches or so, and the team he'll be taking them against is a 49ers Defense that has yet […]

Chris O'Reilly PREMIUM 5 years agoTrey Quinn Invisible Yet Again In Week 6
Washington Redskins wide receiver Trey Quinn saw just four targets in Sunday's win over the Dolphins, collecting two of them for a total of eight yards. This was the third consecutive game in which Quinn was targeted only four times, and also the third straight contest in which he failed to break 20 yards receiving. […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoRedskins Defense Holds On In Road Win
The Washington Redskins Defense finally played winning football for most of Week 6, albeit against the lowly Miami Dolphins. The Redskins picked off Josh Rosen twice and sacked him five times. Washington didn't allow Miami any momentum on offense until Ryan Fitzpatrick took over at QB in the fourth quarter. If not for a failed […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoJeremy Sprinkle Not Thriving As Starter
Washington Redskins tight end Jeremy Sprinkle turned in another disappointing day despite standing in for injured Vernon Davis and Jordan Reed. Sprinkle saw just three targets in Sunday's victory, grabbing two of them for 24 yards. At this point, it doesn't appear to matter when or if Davis or Reed come back, because Sprinkle isn't […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoPaul Richardson Catches Zero Passes In Week 6
Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson was targeted four times on Sunday, hauling in zero of them. This would qualify as a huge disappointment in a favorable matchup if Richardson had done anything of consequence in recent weeks, but he had only caught five passes for 28 yards in his last two games combined. He […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoChris Thompson Sees Just Five Touches In Win
Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson touched the ball a season-low five times for 20 total yards on Sunday. Washington's success on the ground with Adrian Peterson minimized the need to turn to Thompson as often as usual in the passing game, and he naturally turned in his worst fantasy outing of the season. For […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoTerry McLaurin Continues Breakout Rookie Campaign
Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught two touchdowns in Miami on Sunday, and those scores just happened to make the difference in his team's first victory of the season. McLaurin has now caught a touchdown in all four games in which both he and Case Keenum have played. His final line for the day […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoAdrian Peterson Finally Has A Day Against Dolphins
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson carried the ball 23 times for 118 yards in Sunday's win over the Dolphins. He was unable to cap off his performance with a touchdown, but his fantasy owners will take it after the veteran failed to reach even 30 yards on the ground in three of his previous […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoCase Keenum Plays Well Enough To Win In Miami
Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum didn't have his best statistical performance on Sunday, completing just over 50% of his 25 pass attempts for 166 yards. What mattered more than any of that was the two touchdowns he threw to help the Redskins earn their first win of the 2019 season over the Dolphins. Keenum found […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoPaul Richardson A Fantasy Long Shot In Week 6
Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson has had one solid fantasy outing: an eight-catch, 83-yard game capped off with a touchdown in Week 3. He has failed to eclipse 20 receiving yards in three of his other four games, and one of those came in a week when Terry McLaurin was inactive. Case Keenum did […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoChris Thompson Facing Favorable Week 6 Matchup
Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson has been the one constant in a volatile offense this season. No matter how bad things have gotten, Thompson has seen at least five targets in every game and is averaging an even seven. He trails only Terry McLaurin for the overall team lead on a per-game basis. Moreover, […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoAdrian Peterson: Now Or Never Against Dolphins
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson finally has a matchup he can take advantage of in the Miami Dolphins for Week 6. The Dolphins have played one fewer game than most of the league, yet they come into this week having given up the third-most total rushing yards to opposing backs. They're giving up 153.75 […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoJeremy Sprinkle In Line For Starting TE Work
Washington Redskins tight end Jeremy Sprinkle will have his second chance to produce in a starting role with Jordan Reed and Vernon Davis set to miss Week 6. He didn't make much of his first such opportunity last week, though it's worth noting his opponent in that contest was the Patriots. Sprinkle's next opponent is […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoTerry McLaurin Back On The Fantasy Map
Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin will have Case Keenum throwing him the ball again on Sunday, which bodes well for the former's fantasy outlook. McLaurin has reached double-digit fantasy points and scored a touchdown in each of the three games both he and Keenum started. The Dolphins have given up an average of 15 […]

Chris O'Reilly PREMIUM 5 years agoRedskins Defense Picked Apart By Patriots In Second Half
The Washington Redskins Defense began Sunday's loss looking like they might pull off the impossible and keep a game against the heavily favored Patriots close. They picked off Tom Brady in the red zone late in the second quarter, and surprisingly trailed by a score of just 12-7 at halftime. But the Patriots are a […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoChris Thompson Sees Seven Targets In Loss
Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson was tied with Terry McLaurin for the team lead in targets at seven each in Sunday's defeat. While Thompson only turned the volume into five catches for 17 yards, the silver lining here is that it doesn't appear to matter much who the Redskins play at quarterback. Thompson is […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoAdrian Peterson Unproductive Yet Again
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson rushed seven times for 18 yards against the Patriots on Sunday. Peterson has yet to total more than 37 rushing yards in any game this season, and has scored just one touchdown. He may have begun the season as a volume-dependent flex option, but his total lack of production […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoJeremy Sprinkle Falls Flat In Starting Role
Washington Redskins tight end Jeremy Sprinkle caught two of three targets for 17 yards in Sunday's loss. Like a handful of his teammates, his futility in Week 5 can't be entirely attributed to anything he did wrong. The Redskins are just a poor offensive team, and Colt McCoy was never going to give them a […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoPaul Richardson Catches Two Passes In Loss
Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson caught both of his targets for 14 total yards on Sunday. To say that Richardson was a non-factor in the loss is an understatement, but one that must be applied to all of his teammates as well. He has yet to produce any truly fantasy-friendly stat lines through five […]
Chris O'Reilly 5 years agoTerry McLaurin Held In Check By Patriots
Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin hauled in three of seven targets for 51 yards in Sunday's lopsided defeat at the hands of New England. It was his first game back from an injury that kept him out in Week 4, and also his first game without a touchdown. Such was to be expected with […]
