Antonio Williams is a WR3 - primary beneficiary for playing time after McLaurin went down (78% route share after) Chig low-end TE1 Stefon Diggs low-end WR2 or high-end WR3NegativeInjuryOct 20, 2026
Commanders (at 49ers): Terry McLaurin left after his last snap at Q1 2:16 and did not return (could be a serious knee injury) RBs: Rachaad White: 60% opp share, 64% route share, 0% of i10 rush att, 100% of 2min RB snaps, 83% 3rd down snap share Trailing game script from the get-go and he is the pass-down back - he's going to be a back-end RB2 with JCM out Jeremy McNichols: 25% opp share, 9% route share, 100% of i10 rush att, 0% of 2min RB snaps, 17% 3rd down snap share Not worth a roster spot...PositiveUsageOct 12, 2026
Commanders (vs Giants): RBs: Jacory Croskey-Merritt: 48% opp share, 16% route share, 0% of i10 rush att (none for anyone), 10% of 2min RB snaps, 8% 3rd down snap share Feels like a sell situation for JCM - he had a nice game and the team was up for most of it and they still chose not to hand him the ball more than 11 times (and he scored). Seems like a bye-week fill-in and weekly RB3/flex. Rachaad White: 35% opp share, 32% route share, 70% of 2min RB snaps, 92% 3rd down snap share In losing g...PositiveInjuryOct 4, 2026
Commanders (vs Indianapolis): Marcus Mariota left at 7:05 of the first quarter with a knee, and Athan Kaliakmanis played the final 51 snaps RBs - a four-way mess with Rachaad White inactive: Jacory Croskey-Merritt: 54% opp share, 32% route share, 0% of i10, 20% of 2min RB snaps He was playing early but was largely ineffective - I don’t know that it’s going to happen for him this year (maybe a flex play moving forward) Austin Ekeler: 25% opp share, 24% route share Actually looked spry - could...PositiveNewsSep 18, 2026
No Frankie Luvu + Chig Okonkwo thoughts: Luvu = Javonte Williams bellcow is a fun way to play this game - already setup to smash, this helps a bunch Chig = Antonio Williams ramped when Chig went down, so he's an interesting dart throw in DFS This is going to be a fun shootoutPositiveDepth ChartAug 22, 2026
Commanders Film Review w/ Jayden (3 snaps): Stefon Diggs only lined up in the slot - when they went to a 2WR set, he came off the field If you are worried about Diggs - this would be the reason why Terry McLaurin (as expected) took all 3 snaps on the outside along with Treylon Burks (signaling he's a 3WR set starter, but that could be a rotation if they do move Diggs outside sometimes) Jacory Croskey-Merritt (came up gimpy in their last practice but should be fine) & Rachaad White missed the...PositiveNewsAug 4, 2026
Chig Okonkwo will likely be the “de facto WR2” if the Commanders don’t sign Stefon DiggsPositiveNewsAug 1, 2026
Big Chig Okonkwo Update: He’s been lined up everywhere: tight to the line, in the slot with three receivers to one side, split wide, and in motion Take: Good TE bet this season if they don’t sign Diggs, though I still feel strongly that they do Via @BenStandigPositiveNewsJul 31, 2026
Second option in the pass game for Commanders (speculative) could be Chig Okonkwo (if they don’t bring in Stefon Diggs) Via @BenStandigPositiveNewsJul 21, 2026
Commanders Insider, Ben Standig, on Chig Okonkwo: "..opportunity to become one of the offense's featured weapons." Again we'll see if the Commanders add a legit WR2 (Stefon Diggs) or if Chig will operate as that Top-2 pass catcher
