Paul Richardson Starts 2019 With Pedestrian Fantasy Day
Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson caught four of seven targets for 36 yards in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. The target share is encouraging, though his overall output is not, especially considering rookie Terry McLaurin shined with 125 yards and a touchdown. Richardson was one of five Redskins players with six or more targets... Read More
Vernon Davis Catches Touchdown Against Eagles
Washington Redskins tight end Vernon Davis scored the team's first touchdown of 2019 on an impressive 48-yard scamper. He finished the day with four catches for 59 yards and the lone touchdown. The thing that jumps out at you might be the long touchdown, but keep in mind that he only accumulated 11 yards on... Read More
Trey Quinn Cashes In Garbage-Time Touchdown
Washington Redskins wide receiver Trey Quinn had a modest Week 1, but his overall production was salvaged by a meaningless touchdown as time dwindled in the fourth quarter. Quinn's final line for the day was four catches, 33 yards, and the touchdown. He was targeted six times, which is encouraging for those trying to gauge... Read More
Chris Thompson Has Solid PPR Day In Week 1
Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson returned to form on Sunday after a rough and ineffective 2018. Thompson saw 10 targets in the passing game, hauling in seven of them for 68 yards. He also added 10 yards on the ground with three carries, but that kind of minimal rushing work is routine for him.... Read More
Derrius Guice A Non-Factor Against Eagles
Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice carried the ball just 10 times for 18 yards in his regular-season debut. It's not incredibly surprising to see him struggle on the road against a tough Eagles team to start his career, but it is somewhat puzzling that he didn't see more touches when the Redskins jumped out... Read More
Terry McLaurin Has Big Debut For Redskins
Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin hauled in five of seven targets for 125 yards and a touchdown on Sunday in Philadelphia. The highlight of his day was the touchdown: a 69-yard bomb from Case Keenum that put the Redskins up 17-0 early in the second quarter. It's only one game, but the production from... Read More
Redskins Defense Collapses In Second Half Against Philly
The Washington Redskins Defense held Carson Wentz and the Eagles to seven points in the first half, but that success would be short-lived. The Eagles scored 25 unanswered points in the second half en route to a 32-27 victory. The Redskins allowed Wentz to throw for 313 yards and three touchdowns, and they permitted the... Read More
Case Keenum Impressive In Week 1
Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum had himself a day against the Philadelphia Eagles. Keenum's final line for Week 1 was 30 completions on 45 attempts, 380 yards, three touchdowns, and zero turnovers. The Redskins were supposed to roll over for the Eagles in this matchup, but Keenum would have none of it, leading the Redskins... Read More

Paul Richardson Not A Safe Bet For Week 1
Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson will start against the Eagles on Sunday, and it's worth noting that his opponent was a very fantasy-friendly matchup for wideouts in 2018. That said, Richardson has consistently been a pretty all-or-nothing receiver in his career, with many of his most lucrative fantasy outings coming in the form of... Read More
Trey Quinn Starting From Slot In Week 1
Washington Redskins wide receiver Trey Quinn will operate out of the slot to start the year, as expected. This provides him with the most immediate fantasy intrigue of any Redskins receiver simply because slot roles often translate into high volume. In a passing game without any one "sure thing" heading into 2019, the best bet... Read More
Terry McLaurin In Line To Start In Week 1
Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin is set to join Paul Richardson and Trey Quinn as the team's starters at the position. The rookie McLaurin was evidently impressive enough in camp that the Redskins felt comfortable cutting ties with Josh Doctson. Both McLaurin and his new team will hope for better results than the Doctson... Read More
Case Keenum Facing Tough Week 1 Road Test
Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum will make his team debut in the hostile confines of Lincoln Financial Field against the Eagles on Sunday. The Eagles were a bend-but-don't-break pass defense in 2018, allowing the third-most yards through the air (4,308) but holding their opposition to 22 passing touchdowns. Keenum and the Redskins are working with... Read More

Chris Thompson A Deep-League PPR Option In Week 1
Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson is set to resume his role as a pass-catching threat out of the backfield. He's coming off an injury-plagued and disappointing 2018 season, so any high usage rates or efficiency will be a sight for sore eyes within the fantasy community. His volume in Week 1 figures to depend... Read More
Redskins Defense Faces Tough Road Test In Week 1
The Washington Redskins Defense will have to deal with Carson Wentz and the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1. They'll look to get off to a good start at repeating a 2018 campaign in which they forced a turnover on 14.6% of opposing offensive possessions, the sixth-highest mark in the NFL. The Redskins also recorded 46... Read More
Adrian Peterson Ready To Roll In Week 1
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson is in line to continue his role as a key piece of the offense in 2019. The difference in this year compared to last, however, is that the Redskins have Derrius Guice back. It stands to reason that the Redskins will want to ease Guice into action, so Peterson... Read More
Derrius Guice Set For Regular Season Debut
Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice is set to take on the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1. It will be his first regular-season game action, as the second-year back out of LSU has now completed the long journey back from an ACL tear in 2018. He figures to split work with Adrian Peterson in the... Read More
Josh Doctson Sits Out Thursday's Preseason Game
Washington Redskins wide receiver Josh Doctson predictably sat out the team's fourth and final preseason game. As is usually the case at this juncture of the summer, the Redskins utilized the fourth exhibition as a last chance for fringe 53-man wideouts to stake their claim to the last few spots on the depth chart. Darvin... Read More
Paul Richardson Doesn't Play On Thursday
Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson sat out Thursday's preseason game against the Ravens. This comes as no surprise, as Richardson will likely be inside the top three on Washington's wide receiver depth chart for Week 1. He joined Trey Quinn and Josh Doctson on the sideline for the final exhibition before the regular season.... Read More
Trey Quinn Sits Out Preseason Finale
Washington Redskins wide receiver Trey Quinn did not play in Thursday's preseason game against the Ravens. He has been dealing with a thumb injury, and the Redskins naturally played it safe with the second-year wideout who figures to start for them in the slot. His absence, along with a handful of other presumed starters, opened... Read More
Samaje Perine Ineffective Again On Thursday
Washington Redskins running back Samaje Perine carried the ball five times for 13 yards in Thursday's preseason finale against the Ravens. This was about on par with what he had done all preseason, except teammate Byron Marshall took advantage of his own opportunities with 45 yards on eight carries. There wasn't much in the form... Read More
Byron Marshall Has Best Preseason Game
Washington Redskins running back Byron Marshall carried the ball eight times for 45 yards on Thursday night against the Ravens. He averaged 5.6 yards per carry with a long rush of 16 yards. It was by far his best performance of the preseason, and undeniably more encouraging than Samaje Perine's five-carry, 13-yard outing. The battle... Read More
Cam Sims Sees Seven Targets In Preseason Finale
Washington Redskins wide receiver Cam Sims led all his teammates in targets on Thursday night with seven. He caught one of them for 12 yards. This comes on the heels of a third exhibition in which he caught three of five targets for 48 yards. The efficiency was obviously not there in the finale, but... Read More
Kelvin Harmon Finishes August On Low Note
Washington Redskins wide receiver Kelvin Harmon wasn't heavily featured throughout the preseason. He saw just eight targets in Washington's first three games despite teammates like Josh Doctson and Trey Quinn not factoring much into those contests. On Thursday night, he was targeted once on a catch that resulted in negative yardage. The door was presumably... Read More
