With Commanders WR Terry McLaurin out for the season with a torn patellar tendon in his knee, Antonio Williams was expected to play an expanded role in McLaurin's absence, and indeed the rookie did just that in Washington's Week 8 win over Philadelphia. Williams had 5-54-0 on seven targets against the Eagles. He led the Commanders' receivers in snaps (50) and routes (29). The third-round rookie from Clemson should continue to be busy in the weeks to come — especially PPR leagues.
