3 years agoThe Washington Football Team placed running back J.D. McKissic (concussion) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday and elevated quarterback Kyle Shurmur from the practice squad to the active roster in order to back up Garrett Gilbert in Week 15. McKissic will miss his third straight game on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Eagles and now won't be eligible to return until the season-finale in Week 18. If your league ends in Week 17 like most fantasy setups, McKissic can be safely dropped in redraft leagues. Antonio Gibson should get all the work he can handle on Tuesday with Gilbert under center for Washington. Wendell Smallwood is on the COVID list, so rookie Jaret Patterson and Jonathan Williams will work in behind Gibson when he needs a breather.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
