3 years agoWashington Football Team running back Wendell Smallwood is likely to play the J.D. McKissic role in the offense, according to head coach Ron Rivera. Many thought that rookie Jaret Patterson could see an increased role, but that doesn't seem to be the case this week. Smallwood has shown some upside as a pass-catcher from his time in Philadelphia but doesn't seem like a reliable fantasy option in Week 13. McKissic has found himself as a fantasy-relevant option in the past, but it will be hard to count on Smallwood producing similar numbers after seeing no playing time this season. Still, the former Eagle could have some lower-end FLEX appeal in deeper leagues because of his potential to catch a few passes in this one.--Tommy Adamopoulos - RotoBaller
