Here are our projections for the Washington Football Team running backs for the 2020 NFL season:
| Player | Att. | Yards | TD | Rec. | Yards | TD | Points | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Antonio Gibson | 139.1 | 619 | 4.52 | 40.9 | 370.1 | 2.66 | 141.99 | |
| Gibson possesses a superior combination of athleticism (4.39 forty) for his size (228 pounds) and broke tackles at a ridiculous rate (33 on 77 career touches) at Memphis. With both Derrius Guice and Adrian Peterson released, the (early) third-rounder enters 2020 atop the team's fantasy depth chart at running back. Earlier this offseason, Ron Rivera said Gibson has "a skill set like Christian (McCaffrey)." | ||||||||
