Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols could move up the depth chart on Sunday afternoon if Brian Robinson (knee) is unable to suit up. Robinson entered last weekend in questionable status but was able to play. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status throughout the weekend. McNichols has shinned in the few opportunities he has gotten this season. In Week 4 with Austin Ekeler sidelined with a concussion, McNichols tallied 68 yards and two scores on eight attempts. Last weekend, late into the fourth quarter when the Commanders had a sizeable lead, the 28-year-old received seven carries and totaled 44 yards and another score. If Robinson is unable to play, McNichols becomes a viable flex option in deeper formats as he should share the backfield with Austin Ekeler.

Mitchell, who was projected as the team's RB2, has dealt with injury problems throughout his career, having never played more than 11 games in a year. Jordan Mason is now expected to be the 49ers' RB2 behind Christian McCaffrey (calf) with Mitchell sidelined.
