First I want to say I hope Sam Cosmi is ok. Hate seeing anyone injured. As for the play, I think Gracen Halton had tunnel vision diving for Jeremy McNichols ankles and was surprised that there was a leg in front of him [Quoted](

Thoughts on the Commanders RB situation for the fantasy football crowd with Bill out: 🏈 Rachaad White should be busy. No official injury status despite "limited" the final practices. RBBC likely but he should easily out-snap others. 🏈 Austin Ekeler's variance is significant but hard to trust. Desperate times and such. Also "limited" with no injury designation. This is his 3rd week since signing. Good opportunity to show he warrants more snaps even when Bill returns 🏈 For folks asking about...

Running back was full participant in practice all week and should be ready to come off injured reserve to play versus San Francisco. Head coach Dan Quinn indicated McNichols will be part of the backfield rotation: 'Having a combination of guys is what we'll lean on right now.'

McNichols hasn't seen game action to this point in the season and is part of the backfield committee. He is a good pass protector and receiver out of the backfield, which could be leveraged in the passing game as the Commanders look to find running backs in space given their potential explosiveness.
