With Jacory Croskey-Merritt on IR, Kaytron Allen waived, Jeremy McNichols potentially done for the year with a foot injury, and Jerome Ford waived, almost every notable member of the backfield is out of the picture. Rachaad White and Austin Ekeler are the last ones standing.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Ekeler among last standing in depleted Commanders backfield; lacks dual-threat upside.

With Jacory Croskey-Merritt on IR, Kaytron Allen waived, Jeremy McNichols potentially done for the year with a foot injury, and Jerome Ford waived, Austin Ekeler and Rachaad White are the last remaining notable members of the Commanders' backfield. The source notes that for a team with a dynamic, dual-threat quarterback like Jayden Daniels, the Commanders lack a running back who can take advantage of the extra attention defenses pay to Daniels.
