Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler saw a season-high in targets last Thursday and could be in store for another strong showing in Week 12 facing the Dallas Cowboys. Even with Brian Robinson Jr. back in action, Ekeler continued to see most of the passing work out of the backfield and served as a reliable check-down option for Jayden Daniels against a tough Philadelphia defense. While the Commanders have a much easier matchup facing the Dallas Cowboys this weekend, Ekeler could still see a heavy dose of targets as he is becoming one of the most reliable options in the Washington passing attack. Facing a weak Dallas defense that has surrendered the 30th-most PPR points to opposing RBs this season makes Ekeler a viable flex option in PPR formats.

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson (toe) returned to practice in a full capacity on Friday. As a result, he has been removed from the final injury report and will play in Week 9 against the Tennessee Titans. This news doesn't mean much for fantasy football, as it has become clear this season that Gibson isn't going to be a dependable option for as long as Rhamondre Stevenson is healthy. Averaging just 29.6 rushing yards and 14.9 receiving yards per game this season, Gibson lacks fantasy appeal.
Still trying to decide between Ekeler and Gibson? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Austin Ekeler is projected to score 6.6 points this week while Antonio Gibson is projected to score 3.3 points.
