Austin Ekeler Week 11 Outlook - Commanders at Eagles

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 14th 2024, 1:05pm EST

Ekeler will work in with Robinson Jr. this week. I'll keep this short and sweet. This isn't the week to consider flexing Ekeler. Even if the Commanders are playing catchup, there's not a lot to like for Ekeler. If his volume is limited, you'd like to see a matchup where he can maximize his touches with efficiency or excel through the air. Neither is a likely outcome this week. Since Week 5, Philly has allowed the second-lowest explosive run rate and rushing yards per game, the lowest missed tackle rate, and the ninth-lowest yards after contact per attempt. Overall, Philly has held backs to the 12th-fewest receiving yards per game and the tenth-lowest yards per reception.
