Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols worked mostly behind rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt in Week 5, rushing just once for six yards and catching one of two targets for 12 yards. McNichols matched third-year running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. in snaps, each playing 13 snaps, while Croskey-Merritt led the way with 28. McNichols' role in pass protection is highly valued by the Washington coaching staff and will keep him involved in Washington's backfield committee. But his floor for touches is low, which limits his appeal in fantasy.

Houston Texans running back Dare Ogunbowale has played significant snaps in the first two weeks of the season, but the veteran could be in for a reduced workload as the team tries to find more dynamic playmakers to jumpstart the offense. He's expected to play a reduced role against the Jaguars in Week 3 as the Texans lean more on rookie Woody Marks instead of the veteran Obubowale. In Week 1, he played 27% of snaps, and in Week 2, he played 20% of snaps. After two carries and two catches in Week 1, he didn't have an offensive opportunity in Week 2. Marks made some big plays as well, showing the spark he brings to the offense. Ogunbowale is only the RB76 in the RotoBaller Week 3 rankings, so he's off the radar in all but the deepest of leagues this week.
