WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Denver Broncos

J.D. McKissic had an OK game last week, finishing with 56 scrimmage yards. McKissic has benefitted from the recent game flows for Washington as he's played at least 60% of the offensive snaps in back-to-back games, his only two games hitting that mark this season. McKissic is a tough player to gauge in fantasy because his role is pretty dependent on Washington being down and needing to pass. He doesn't score many touchdowns, and doesn't run often. He could struggle to get much going this week as he faces a Broncos defense that's allowed the third-fewest receptions and third-fewest receiving yards to running backs this season. McKissic has some appeal as a flex play in PPR formats in Week 8.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Green Bay Packers

J.D. McKissic saw increased playing time last week, partly due to Antonio Gibson's injury. McKissic played a season-high 61% of the offensive snaps, and had a productive game finishing 8-65 on 10 targets. He also carried the ball eight times for 45 yards, meaning he had 110 scrimmage yards. While Gibson's injury played a role, the game flow of Washington falling behind late also contributed as McKissic plays on passing downs. With Gibson's shin injury bothering him, we could see McKissic having another game with an increased snap count. He could be a sneaky RB3/flex play in PPR formats this week, especially against the Packers. Green Bay has allowed the 12th-most receptions to running backs this season.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Kansas City Chiefs

J.D. McKissic had a tough outing last week, rushing twice for -1 yard and catching just one pass for eight yards (on four targets). Last season, McKissic was pretty much gold every week for PPR formats, but this year has been more matchup and game-flow-based. He gets a good matchup this week against the Chiefs in what could be an offensive shootout.

The Chiefs have given up the sixth-most receiving yards to running backs this season, so McKissic has a better chance at production this week. Still, he's a difficult back to trust given his up-and-down production. He should be viewed as a low-end flex play in PPR formats.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. New Orleans Saints

J.D. McKissic finished with a season-high 12 touches last week as he carried the ball a surprising seven times. Although he wasn't productive on the ground, ending with just 15 yards. He was productive as a receiver, though, finishing 5-44-1 on five targets. His increase in carries could be due to Antonio Gibson's shin injury, although his playing time remained mostly the same. McKissic could be in for a decent game this week against the Saints. While New Orleans has been tough to running backs on the ground (giving up the third-fewest rushing yards), the Saints have been more lenient to running backs through the air, where McKissic shines. Still, he's not much more than a low-end flex play in PPR formats this week.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Atlanta Falcons

Washington was playing from behind for most of the game in Week 3, which you think would be good for receiving threat J.D. McKissic, but he had a modest game with 38 scrimmage yards. McKissic had just two targets, finishing 2-15 as a receiver, adding 23 yards on three carries. He was still heavily involved, seeing a season-high 46% of the offensive snaps, but the production wasn't there. McKissic looked good in Week 2, but his production has been unstable so far. He'll be a risky flex option in PPR formats against the Falcons in Week 4.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Buffalo Bills

J.D. McKissic had just one touch in Week 1, making fantasy owners wonder if 2020 was just a one-year marvel for the back. But McKissic made a huge splash in Week 2, finishing 5-83 as a receiver, and stealing a goal-line touchdown. That's a huge variance, meaning a lot of McKissic's production will be related to the flow of the game overall. He could have a hard time doing a whole lot this week against the Bills. So far this season, Buffalo's only given up five receptions for 25 yards to running backs. McKissic will be a boom-or-bust flex play in Week 3.

WAS RB J.D. McKissic - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. New York Giants

J.D. McKissic had a decent snap share in Week 2, playing 36% of the offensive snaps, but he was barely involved in the offense from a production standpoint. McKissic had just one target (which he didn't catch) and one rushing attempt in Week 1. We expected McKissic's targets to slow down in Year 2, but not quite by that much. As long as McKissic is only seeing one target, it's best to keep him out of your lineups for now.
