From the episode

Jonathan Taylor at the Washington Commanders is your running back four... He's the RB1 overall RB3 usage. He's averaging over 100 rushing yards, 1.25 rushing touchdowns per game... Leo Chennault, their other linebacker, he's going to be out, I think, I'm assuming, for the rest of the season with neck surgery.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Taylor RB1 with Jones; gettable Commanders defense with weakened linebacker corps.

Taylor is ranked RB4 by the source, slightly higher than consensus RB6, and placed in A-tier against Washington. With Daniel Jones available, he is RB1 overall and RB3 in usage, averaging over 100 rushing yards and 1.25 rushing touchdowns per game. The Commanders' defense is weakened with Leo Chennault out for the season with neck surgery and Frankie Lubin potentially returning but not guaranteed to play. The Commanders' linebackers are on their fourth and fifth strings, creating a gettable environment. However, on-off splits with Alex Pierce show significant drops in efficiency when Pierce is off the field (30th in yards per carry and contact per attempt vs. second and fourth with Pierce on).
