Bryce Love
RB -
Week 16 Outlook
Availability
Former Washington Football Team RB Bryce Love went unclaimed on waivers.
Fantasy Impact
Love was released by Washington recently and passed through waivers unclaimed. He has yet to play in an NFL game and spent the last three months of 2020 on injured reserve with a knee issue. The 2019 fourth-round draft pick will look to latch onto another team during the offseason. Love is a dart throw in dynasty-league formats and will most likely be a depth piece if signed by another team in 2021.
Bryce Love was officially waived by the Washington Football Team on Monday afternoon following some recurring injury issues.
Fantasy Impact
Love being waived further clarifies the Washington backfield of Antonio Gibson and J.D. Mckissic. Love will likely be signed as a depth piece elsewhere.
Washington running back Bryce Love is experiencing soreness in his knee and will be held out of practice.
Fantasy Impact
Love was held out of Friday's session as well, so it appears that he may have suffered a setback. Setbacks in attempted returns from injuries are nothing new in Washington and was a constant theme with another talented young back formerly on their roster. Bryce Love has the talent to claim a large role in the backfield if healthy, but if he cannot return this season, it is fair to wonder if Washington will look to the draft to add another piece to their backfield puzzle. Love may turn into a case study on exceptional talents choosing to return for their senior season after he suffered a torn ACL in the final game of his college career. If he does manage to get healthy before the season is through, he will likely eat into the snaps of both Antonio Gibson and J.D. McKissic.
Washington coach Ron Rivera says that he is hopeful RB Bryce Love (knee) can return "in the next few weeks."
Fantasy Impact
"The opportunity to get him back on the field is coming soon," Rivera added. The 23-year-old has been out all season with a knee injury. Antonio Gibson remains the RB to roster in this backfield right now.
RB Bryce Love (knee) was spotted at practice Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Love was placed on the injured reserve in early October with a knee injury. He was spotted jogging on the sidelines in Thursday's practice. Love has yet to play a game this season and will need to log a full practice before being activated from the injured reserve.
