Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols has had a solid season as the team's primary third-down back, recording 42 carries for 220 yards and a touchdown to go with 21 catches (27 targets) for 176 yards in 15 games. The veteran handled a season-high 10 touches in Week 15 with Chris Rodriguez Jr. inactive, but he had only three touches with Rodriguez back last week against the Eagles. It will likely be a similar situation for McNichols on Christmas Day against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys, where the Commanders could be starting journeyman quarterback Josh Johnson with the status of Marcus Mariota (hand, quadriceps) in doubt. McNichols shouldn't be considered as a fantasy option in Week 17.

Indianapolis Colts running back DJ Giddens is a healthy scratch ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Giddens won't be active for the third straight game as he hasn't played since Week 7. The Colts will ride with Tyler Goodson and Ameer Abdullah as the backups to Jonathan Taylor. So far this season, Giddens has rushed the ball 18 times for 66 yards with zero touchdowns. He could be worth stashing in dynasty leagues, but doesn't need to be rostered outside of that.
Still trying to decide between McNichols and Giddens? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Jeremy McNichols is projected to score 2.2 points this week while DJ Giddens is projected to score 1.2 points.
