Jeremy McNichols
RB - Washington Commanders
Availability
Jeremy McNichols rushed for 44 yards and one touchdown on seven carries in the Commanders 34-13 win over the Browns.
Fantasy Impact
McNichols found the endzone on a three-yard run in the third quarter to build the Commanders' lead. The 28-year-old is the third back in the rotation for the Commanders, leaving him with little fantasy value each week.
Jeremy McNichols ran for 68 yards and two touchdowns on eight carries in the Commanders 42-14 win over the Cardinals. He also caught his lone target for six yards receiving.
Fantasy Impact
McNichols took on an extended role behind Brian Robinson with Austin Ekeler sidelined. He was able to score twice on a limited number of carries. McNichols will be tough for fantasy managers to trust in a tougher matchup next week even if Ekeler remains sidelined.
Jeremy McNichols rushed the ball five times for 23 yards in Sunday's 20-10 preseason win over the New England Patriots.
Fantasy Impact
McNichols got five touches on the day and averaged a solid 4.6 yards per carry in a win over the Patriots. He seems unlikely to make the active roster as Washington makes cuts in the coming days, but it's possible that he will end up on a practice squad somewhere.
The 49ers have signed free agent RB Jeremy McNichols.
Fantasy Impact
McNichols recently worked out for the 49ers as the team searched for a running back to replace the injured Elijah Mitchell. The 27-year-old last played with the Titans in 2021, registering 156 yards on 41 carries in 14 games. McNichols likely will have limited fantasy value if he makes the 53-man roster.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed RB Jeremy McNichols to a one-year contract.
Fantasy Impact
The 26-year-old out of Boise State played five years with four different teams, appearing in 34 games and accumulating 364 yards rushing, 295 yards receiving, and two combined touchdowns. He will join a crowded backfield fighting for playing time behind elite RB Najee Harris. Until we see how training camp breaks down, McNichols lacks fantasy value.
