Redskins RB Matt Jones (knee) missed practice again Thursday. Jones has some “soreness in his knee” and “some pain cutting” so he hasn’t practiced yet this week, per beat writer John Keim. Rob Kelley would be the lead back with a lot of Chris Thompson as well. The team doesn’t want to overload Thompson since he’s a smaller back.

Skins Beat: Team now has questions at RB

A week ago the Redskins rushed for 230 yards against a strong Eagles defense. Matt Jones led the way, gaining 135 yards including 57 on a game-clinching long run in the last minutes of the game.

Now fast forward to today and there is widespread clamoring for Matt Jones to be benched, perhaps permanently. Having a hand in three fumbles, two of which were lost, will do that.

Fantasy Impact: 

It's a dicey situation for Jones owners. Thompson isn't a carry-the-load kind of back and Kelly has looked good but doesn't have the experience. The author speculated Jones gets limited work this week with Thompson and Kelley splitting a bulk of the workload with about 10-12 carries each and Jones perhaps gets another chance to become the primary RB in the near future. It's a situation that needs to be monitored. As we said before, the Skins having any kind of split with their lack of running success at times doesn't make anyone a very solid fantasy option.

Redskins Beat: 'More like a 60/40 split' between Matt Jones and Robert Kelley

The bigger implication of Wednesday night at running back may be in the division of carries. It seems that the offseason plan has been to give Matt Jones the vast majority of the carries, upwards of 75 percent of them. But the way that Robert Kelley ran, and the way he ran throughout the entire preseason, may prompt Jay Gruden and company to call his number more often. Jones will still get most of the rushing attempts but it may be more like a 60/40 split with Kelley and maybe Chris Thompson getting the other carries.

Fantasy Impact: 

Kelley rushed 38 times for 198 yards (5.2 YPC) and a touchdown in the preseason. He was actually outrushed by Mack Brown (39 carries, 227 yards, 5.8 YPC, TD), though Tandler said that he doesn't see a spot for Brown on the roster. Regardless, Kelley's emergence will eat into Jones's carries, so he may not have the workload that we expected earlier in the offseason. Chris Thompson should serve as the team's primary back on third down.
