Terry McLaurin and J.D. McKissic have been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles, while Curtis Samuel has been ruled out. With Samuel ruled out, DeAndre Carter and Adam Humphries should play a larger role in the offense behind Terry McLaurin (who HC Ron Rivera has said he is highly optimistic of to play). Both Humphries and Carter are not likely to see enough work to be considered in DFS contests and especially with Kyle Shurmur expected to start at quarterback at this time. McKissic if available should return to his normal role splitting time with Antonio Gibson and seeing the bulk of the passing down work. If he were to be unavailable, Gibson would be one of the better plays on the slate due to expected volume with Jaret Patterson available to back him up. It will be important to check inactives 90 minutes before kickoff to see if McLaurin and McKissic will be available.

Terry McLaurin returned to practice Thursday, while J.D. McKissic and Curtis Samuel both logged DNPs ahead of their matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday. If McKissic were once again to be ruled out, Antonio Gibson would lead the backfield with Jaret Patterson and Wendell Smallwood available to back him up. McLaurin seems to be trending in the right direction this week to remain Washington's top option in the receiving game. If Samuel were to miss DeAndre Carter and Adam Humphries could play larger roles behind McLaurin.

Terry McLaurin (concussion), Curtis Samuel (hamstring) and J.D. McKissic (concussion) all logged DNPs Wednesday ahead of their matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday. If McLaurin were to miss this weekend, the receiving corps would be led by DeAndre Carter, Adam Humphries, and Curtis Samuel (status also in question). All three receivers would become much better value options based on the increase in expected production stemming from McLaurin's hefty target share being split among them. If McKissic were once again to be ruled out, Antonio Gibson would lead the backfield with Jaret Patterson and Wendell Smallwood available to back him up.

J.D. McKissic (concussion) is not expected to play Sunday, while Curtis Samuel is expected to play against the Dallas Cowboys. With Gibson out it will likely be another day of Antonio Gibson seeing the majority of the backfield work. Last week, given a similar opportunity he didn't disappoint with 23 carries for 88 yards and 5 receptions for 23 yards and a touchdown. Gibson will once again need to be considered in most formats as he should be one of the better plays of the slate. Curtis Samuel is expected to play and should remain in his role as wide receiver three for Washington. Samuel likely should only be considered as part of a DAL/WAS game stack.
