Has surgery on foot
Gibson (knee) underwent surgery Thursday to address a fracture in his foot, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gibson played through the fracture for most of December but then missed the final two games of the regular season after spraining his knee Week 16. He's expected to recover in time for offseason workouts, at which point he'll be in the fourth and final season of his rookie contract. Rookie back Brian Robinson, meanwhile, will miss Week 18 with a knee injury that isn't considered especially serious. Jonathan Williams and Jaret Patterson are Washington's healthy backs for the season finale, while…read more

Shut down for Week 18
Washington placed Gibson (knee/foot) on injured reserve Thursday, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
Analysis: Though Gibson's pair of lower-body injuries aren't believed to be long-term concerns, the Commanders will err on the side of caution by holding him out of Sunday's season finale against the Cowboys. By moving Gibson to IR, the Commanders were able to free up a spot on the 53-man roster for practice-squad signee Jaret Patterson, who will add depth to the backfield behind Brian Robinson (knee) and Jonathan Williams. Gibson concludes the 2022 season with 546 rushing yards (on a career-worst 3.7…read more

Not practicing
Gibson (knee/foot) didn't practice Wednesday, Ethan Cadeaux of NBC Sports Washington reports.
Analysis: Gibson has been dealing with the foot injury for more than a month without missing a game, but the knee sprain he suffered Week 16 against San Francisco rendered him inactive for the Week 17 loss to Cleveland. With Washington having been eliminated from playoff contention, Gibson may be in line to sit out Sunday's season finale versus Dallas, though it's perhaps still possible he plays if he returns to practice Thursday or Friday.

Ruled out
Gibson (knee/foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson has been dealing with a foot injury for a few weeks and then sprained his knee in last Saturday's loss to the 49ers. His absence for Week 17 could leave Brian Robinson in a three-down role, though it's also possible the Commanders give most of Gibson's usual workload to Jonathan Williams or Jaret Patterson (the latter of whom would need to be called up from the practice squad). A Week 18 matchup with Dallas will be Gibson's final chance to play in the 2022 regular season, and perhaps his…read more

Missing third straight practice
Gibson (knee/foot) is not participating in the portion of Friday's practice open to the media, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson appears to be missing a third consecutive practice, which would bode poorly for his chances of suiting up Sunday versus the Browns. Friday's official practice report will reveal whether Gibson has an official injury designation for the contest, but fantasy managers will already want to begin preparing for a potential absence. If Gibson is limited versus Cleveland or can't play, rookie Brian Robinson will be primed for an increased role in Washington's Week 17 backfield, while Jonathan…read more

Sits out another practice
Gibson (knee/foot) didn't take part in Thursday's practice, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gibson has opened Week 17 with back-to-back absences from practice due to knee and foot injuries, giving him just one more opportunity to get some on-field work before the Commanders potentially make a ruling on his availability ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns. If Gibson is limited or sidelined this weekend, rookie Brian Robinson likely would take on the lion's share of the backfield work for Washington, with Jonathan Williams on hand for anything that lingers.

Missing from another practice
Gibson (knee/foot) wasn't present for Thursday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson thus appears set to be listed as a non-participant for the second practice in a row, clouding his status for Sunday's game against the Browns. If Gibson is sidelined Week 17, Brian Robinson would have an even clearer path than usual to handling the bulk of the carries out of the backfield, while perhaps benefiting from more work on passing downs, too. Jonathan Williams would step in as the Commanders' No. 2 running back in place of Gibson.

Listed with foot, knee injuries
Gibson is listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice with foot and knee injuries, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Washington head coach Ron Rivera previously revealed Tuesday that Gibson had suffered a sprain in Saturday's 37-20 loss to San Francisco. Given that he was listed with a foot injury the past few weeks, it's reasonable to deduce that Gibson sprained his knee in Week 16, with the injury now putting his status in question for Sunday's matchup with the Browns. Brian Robinson could get more targets, and perhaps a few more carries than usual, if Gibson isn't ready to play Sunday.

Not practicing Wednesday
Gibson isn't present for the open portion of Wednesday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Head coach Ron Rivera said Tuesday that Gibson is dealing with a sprain, but he didn't offer any further details about the running back's injury. Gibson will have two more chances to increase his practice activity ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns, but if he can't go this weekend or ends up being limited, Jonathan Williams would be in line to handle more work behind Brian Robinson.

Dealing with sprain
Head coach Ron Rivera said Tuesday that Gibson is dealing with an undisclosed "sprain" and will be monitored closely during Week 17 prep, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rivera wouldn't reveal what body part Gibson injured, but the coach did say the running back's injury led to more playing time for Jonathan Williams during the team's blowout loss to the 49ers. The extent of Gibson's issue remains unclear, but Wednesday's practice report should provide further clarity on his status for Sunday's matchup against the Browns.

Gets only seven touches
Gibson took five carries for 10 yards and caught two of three targets for 21 yards in Saturday's 37-20 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Gibson played 29 percent of Washington's offensive snaps, down from 60 percent the week before in a loss to the Giants, though he finished with the same number of touches (seven). Brian Robinson, meanwhile, took 22 carries for 58 yards on 44 percent of snaps. No. 3 back Jonathan Williams took 29 percent of snaps, albeit with five of his six touches coming in the fourth quarter after Washington fell behind by 16 points. Gibson gets a nice matchup with Cleveland's weak run defense in Week 17, but…read more

Good to go for Week 16
Gibson (foot) won't carry an injury designation for Saturday's game in San Francisco, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
Analysis: Gibson was listed as a limited participant on the Commanders' first two Week 16 practice reports, but as anticipated, his foot issue never seriously threatened his availability for Saturday's contest. He'll likely fill his usual role as Option 1B in the backfield alongside rookie Brian Robinson. Though Robinson has handled more carries between the two backs in each of the past three games, Gibson has still taken on snap shares ranging between 40 and 62 percent in those contests while averaging…read more

Gibson (foot) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: GIbson reps have been capped for the Commanders' first two practices of Week 16, as has been the case for a few weeks at this point while he deals with a foot injury. He'll have one more chance to get back to full activity Thursday, at which point the Commanders may hand him a designation for Saturday's contest at San Francisco. Gibson doesn't appear in danger of sitting out this weekend, so assuming he's eventually cleared to play, he again will be splitting work with rookie Brian Robinson out…read more

Limited on estimated report
Gibson (foot) was listed as limited on Tuesday's practice estimate, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: The Commanders held a walkthrough to kick off Week 16 prep, but Gibson continues to have practice limitations due to the foot issue that has lingered for the past few weeks. While he played 60 percent of the snaps Sunday night against the Giants, he mustered just 27 yards from scrimmage on seven touches. Fellow running back Brian Robinson rang in at 38 percent, but he was far more utilized en route to 13 touches for 107 total yards.

Gibson (foot) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Giants, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Gibson and fellow running back Brian Robinson (quadriceps) were both limited in all three practices throughout the week but avoided injury designations on Washington's final injury report. Robinson should get the majority of opportunities on the ground, while Gibson's the superior playmaker in the passing game.

Analysis: Gibson dealt with a foot issue before the Commanders' last game Week 13 at the Giants in which he turned 11 touches into 59 yards from scrimmage. Even with the help of a Week 14 bye, he's still tending to the injury, but fellow running back Brian Robinson (quadriceps) has joined him on the team's practice report this week with a cap on his reps.

Dealing with foot issue
Gibson (foot) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Along with Gibson, fellow running back Brian Robinson (quadriceps) began the week as a limited participant, but head coach Ron Rivera hasn't provided any indication that either player is in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Giants. Robinson drew more touches than Gibson in Washington's last two games prior to the team's Week 14 bye, but Gibson still played more than 40 percent of offensive snaps in those contests and took nine carries both times.

Clear second fiddle in tie
Gibson rushed nine times for 39 yards and brought in two of four targets for 20 yards in the Commanders' 20-20 tie with the Giants on Sunday. He also returned two kickoffs for 27 yards.
Analysis: Gibson saw rookie backfield mate Brian Robinson log 11 more carries and also record two catches, seemingly further cementing the backfield pecking order. Gibson now has back-to-back nine-carry tallies heading into the Week 14 bye, and he's likely slotting right back into a complementary role in the Week 15 rematch with the Giants at FedEx Field.

Suiting up Sunday
Gibson (foot) is listed as active Sunday at the Giants.
Analysis: Gibson sandwiched limited practices around an absence from Thursday's practice during Week 13 prep, the result of a foot issue. The injury may have been the impetus for Gibson getting out-touched, 20-12, by rookie Brian Robinson last Sunday against the Falcons. Because Gibson seemingly is operating at less than 100 percent, such a breakdown may be the reality for the Commanders backfield this time around, too. Having said that, Gibson nonetheless has put together a six-game streak with…read more

Likely to face Giants
Gibson (foot), who is officially listed as questionable, is likely to play Sunday against the Giants, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Gibson seemingly suffered the injury during Washington's Week 12 win over Atlanta, as he lost a significant amount of work to Brian Robinson in the contest. However, after turning in two limited practices this week, Gibson isn't expected to miss any further action. Even if Gibson is active, Robinson could once again take on a heavier workload, given that Gibson may be operating at less than 100 percent.

Listed as questionable
Gibson (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson was initially listed on the injury report Wednesday as limited, then he missed practice Thursday before returning Friday morning. He's seemingly on track to play, with Brian Robinson and Jonathan Williams the other options to handle more work if Gibson ends up limited or inactive ahead of the Commanders' 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Robinson got more work than Gibson in last week's win over Atlanta, but it was the other way around the week before in Houston.

Analysis: The 24-year-old was unable to participate at practice Thursday but has returned to the field for Friday's session. It's unclear if Gibson has shown enough to avoid an injury designation altogether, but it appears he'll at least have a chance of suiting up Sunday against the Giants.

DNP on Thursday
Gibson (foot) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Matthew Paras of The Washington Times reports.
Analysis: One day removed from opening Week 13 prep with a cap on his practice reps, Gibson was held out entirely Thursday, giving him just one more chance to mix into drills before the Commanders potentially make a ruling on his availability for Sunday's game at the Giants. During a Week 12 win against the Falcons, he experienced his lowest touch count (12) since Week 6 and was a distant second to rookie Brian Robinson (20) in his own backfield.

Bothered by foot
Gibson was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a foot injury, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The foot issue may have been a factor in Gibson garnering fewer touches (12) than Brian Robinson (20) in Sunday's 19-13 win over Atlanta, after the reverse had been true the week before, when Gibson took 21 touches to Robinson's 15 in a win over Houston. It's also possible the foot injury had nothing to do with it and the Commanders simply stuck with Robinson after he got off to a strong start in the first half. Whatever the case, Gibson's ability to practice in any capacity at the beginning of…read more

Step back in usage
Gibson rushed the ball nine times for 32 yards in Sunday's 19-13 win over the Falcons. He added three receptions for 22 yards.
Analysis: Brian Robinson led the Washington backfield with 22 touches, well outpacing Gibson. Gibson did make some notable contributions in the game, highlighted by a 14-yard reception in the middle of the second quarter to put the Commanders into field-goal position. He similarly ripped off a 10-yard run early in the fourth quarter to set up another field goal that ultimately put Washington up by six.

Leads backfield in yardage
Gibson ran for 72 yards on 18 carries and caught three passes for 31 yards on three targets against Houston on Sunday.
Analysis: Brian Robinson saw 15 carries for 57 yards himself, as both Washington backs saw big workloads following a pick-six by Washington corner Kendall Fuller on Houston's opening drive. It's not clear whether Gibson saw more carries than Robinson in acknowledgment of their respective levels of effectiveness -- an area where Gibson would have the recent advantage -- or if it was a more random outcome of the game's flow.

Finds end zone in Week 10 win
Gibson rushed 14 times for 44 yards and a touchdown while catching all three of his targets for 14 yards in Monday's 32-21 win over Philadelphia.
Analysis: Gibson tied the score at 7-7 with a one-yard touchdown run in the first quarter, but the next time Washington got one yard away from the end zone, it was fellow running back Brian Robinson that punched it in. In the final minute of the first half, Gibson stayed down after being tackled awkwardly, but he returned to the field after halftime.

Solid usage in loss
Gibson rushed 11 times for 36 yards and secured two of three targets for 11 yards in the Commanders' 20-17 loss to the Vikings on Sunday. He also returned two kickoffs for 68 yards.
Analysis: Gibson checked in just two carries behind Brian Robinson with his highest tally in that category since Week 4. However, neither back was able to do anything of note against a surprisingly staunch Vikings defense, and they could share the workload on a pretty even basis again in a Week 10 Monday night matchup Nov. 14 against the Eagles.

Excels as pass catcher
Gibson recorded seven carries for 19 yards in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Colts. He added seven receptions on seven targets for 58 yards and a touchdown.
Analysis: Gibson has quickly returned to a significant role in the Commanders' offense, as he out-touched Brian Robinson 14-8. Gibson accomplished little on the ground but had three receptions that went for gains of more than 10 yards and also hauled in a nine-yard receiving score. Combined across the last two games, Gibson has 154 total yards and two touchdowns.

Catches TD in win over Green Bay
Gibson rushed 10 times for 59 yards while catching three of four targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Packers.
Analysis: Gibson had half as many carries as Brian Robinson, but the third-year running back made more of an impact as a pass catcher, including a nine-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter. With three-plus catches in five of seven games, including each of the past four, Gibson continues to get opportunities in Washington's offense despite inconsistent usage on the ground. Gibson and the Commanders will face the Colts on the road in Week 8.

Garners 53 total yards in win
Gibson rushed five times for 35 yards, brought in three of four targets for 18 yards and returned one kickoff for 27 yards in the Commanders' 12-7 win over the Bears on Thursday night.
Analysis: As expected, Gibson played a clear backup role behind rookie Brian Robinson, and he actually was very efficient on a per-touch basis. Gibson also made his debut in the kickoff returner role, but moving forward, he may not get enough opportunities from scrimmage on a week-to-week basis to have any true fantasy reliability unless an injury strikes Robinson.

Likely to move to bench
Gibson is likely to serve as a backup running back for the Commanders in Thursday's game against the Bears with rookie Brian Robinson expected to serve as Washington's starter, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: During the preseason, Robinson looked to be trending toward the Week 1 start, but he ended up opening the regular season on the reserve/non-football injury list after he suffered two gunshot wounds in his leg Aug. 29, when he was the victim of an attempted robbery. While Robinson was out for the Commanders' first four games, Gibson was able to temporarily maintain his hold on the lead role out of the backfield, but he averaged just 3.3 yards on 53 carries in those contests.

Significant dip in usage
Gibson had three carries for six yards in Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Titans. He added three catches on four targets for 33 yards.
Analysis: Gibson saw a dramatic dip in opportunity due to the return of Brian Robinson. Even with Robinson reportedly on a pitch count, Gibson was almost completely phased out of the game plan as a rusher. He did maintain his role as a pass catcher, though he'll have to split those duties with J.D. McKissic moving forward. All told, Gibson won't have trustworthy volume so long as the Commanders' backfield remains healthy.

Could lose playing time
Teammate Brian Robinson (leg) was activated off the reserve/non-football injury list Saturday and is expected to contribute as part of a running back rotation with Gibson in Sunday's game against the Titans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: This isn't a particularly good sign for Gibson's fantasy managers, as Robinson had already been declared the starting running back during the preseason before he sustained gunshot wounds in his right leg that necessitated surgery.

Weak usage in loss
Gibson ran for 49 yards on 13 carries and caught three passes on three targets for 14 yards against Dallas on Sunday.
Analysis: It's not clear why, but Washington gave five carries to Jonathan Williams and eight to J.D. McKissic as it lost by 15 points. Gibson doesn't seem to have much traction in the Washington offense despite doing reasonably well with the scattered chances he gets, and Brian Robinson's pending return certainly won't help his cause.

Gibson ran for 38 yards and one touchdown on 12 carries while also bringing in his sole target for two yards against Philadelphia on Sunday.
Analysis: Washington once again neglected to utilize Gibson as a pass catcher, giving him just one target that resulted in a two-yard reception. After catching seven passes for 72 yards on eight targets in Week 1, Gibson has just three receptions for 15 yards on five targets since.

Quiet besides fourth-quarter TD
Gibson rushed 14 times for 28 yards and a touchdown while catching two of four targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 36-27 loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Gibson was bottled up for most of the game but salvaged his afternoon with a one-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. Washington was playing catch-up all game but didn't utilize Gibson extensively as a pass catcher out of the backfield after he caught seven passes for 72 yards in the season opener. He remains locked into the lead role in the Commanders' backfield heading into a Week 3 matchup with the Eagles.

Gibson rushed 14 times for 58 yards and caught seven of eight targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 28-22 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Gibson turned in a solid effort on the ground (4.1 yards per carry), and the career-high eight targets were a welcome surprise for his fantasy managers. We previously reported (Aug. 20) that the power back was getting some extra work as a receiver this preseason to round out his skill set, so the spike in targets may not be an anomaly.

Set to face Jaguars in Week 1
As the Commanders' Week 1 contest against the Jaguars approaches, Gibson is in line to lead a backfield that is also slated to include J.D. McKissic and Jonathan Williams early on this season, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rookie third-round draft choice Brian Robinson, who had been a candidate to see his share of backfield touches to begin the season, was placed on the reserve/non-football injury list by the Commanders on Thursday and will miss at least the team's first four games. Against the Jaguars, look for Gibson to reprise the starting role he held last season, with McKissic in line to see work in the passing game and Williams on hand for complementary snaps.

Not slated to play Saturday
Gibson isn't expected to play in Saturday's preseason game at Baltimore.
Analysis: Joining Gibson on the sideline are fellow Commanders running backs J.D. McKissic (groin), Brian Robinson and Jonathan Williams. With just about none of the team's regular skill-position players in line to suit up in the exhibition finale, that quartert seems poised to survive roster cuts Tuesday. That said, Gibson's ultimate workload is in question due to the impressive showing by the rookie Robinson during the preseason.

Becoming jack of all trades
Gibson rushed twice for three yards and caught three of four targets for 37 yards in Saturday's 24-14 loss to Kansas City. He also returned the opening kickoff 17 yards.
Analysis: Gibson worked in a change-of-pace role with the first-team offense, but it notably was rookie Brian Robinson who got the start and most of the playing time over that span. Gibson stayed in the game after backup quarterback Taylor Heinicke came in, playing an instrumental role as a pass catcher as Heinicke led Washington's only touchdown drive of the first half. Robinson looks like the favorite for most of the rushing work on early downs, while the impending return of J.D. McKissic (groin) will…read more

Practicing with special teams units
Gibson took snaps with the punt return team at Tuesday's practice, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Fortier adds that Gibson's spot on the unit (slot protector) has mostly been handled by rookie Brian Robinson, the third-round pick who shined in the preseason opener with the first-team offense after Gibson lost a fumble on the second drive. There had already been talk of Robinson stealing short-yardage work prior to training camp, and it now seems the rookie has a shot at more than that. Fortier notes that Tuesday's practice was an odd one for Gibson, as he got special teams work and took…read more

Fumbles against Panthers
Gibson carried the ball two times for four yards and caught his only target for two yards in Saturday's 23-21 preseason loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Gibson didn't make much of his limited opportunity and also fumbled deep in Washington's own territory to end the team's second offensive possession. He re-entered the game with the second-team offense but added little to his stat line. It's unclear what this performance means for Gibson's potential to contribute during the regular season, but rookie Brian Robinson tallied six carries for 26 yards and a touchdown.

No issues with hamstring so far
Gibson (hamstring) followed his ramp-up plan for the first week of training camp and now has resumed practicing with teammates, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: It sounds like Gibson has avoided any setbacks with the hamstring injury that limited his participation in spring practices. He also mentioned dropping a few pounds, going from the mid-230s to low 230s, though the Commanders listed him at 220 both last season and this year. Gibson reportedly wants to get down to 220-225 before Week 1, which especially makes sense if rumors of rookie Brian Robinson stealing short-yardage work are to be believed. Gibson was the team's grinder last year, and it…read more

Could lose goal-line carries?
Gibson (hamstring) may cede short-yardage work to rookie Brian Robinson, who has been getting a lot of first-team snaps in the opening days of training camp, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gibson's absence due to the hamstring injury is obviously a factor, but the report suggests Robinson would have a role with the starters even if Washington's No. 1 back didn't have any injury concerns. Gibson has been bothered by his hamstring since June 7/8, with coach Ron Rivera suggesting Wednesday that the 24-year-old will ramp up his workload on the side before rejoining teammates in practice. It sounds like the team still expects Gibson to be fine for Week 1, but we need only look at…read more

Needs to ramp up before practicing
Head coach Ron Rivera said Gibson (hamstring) was held out of practice Wednesday due to "an abundance of caution," with the Commanders planning to ramp up his workload on the side field before he joins his teammates for drills, Matthew Paras of The Washington Times reports.
Analysis: Gibson injured his hamstring at OTAs and missed some of the later sessions. His absence from early training camp practices leaves more reps for passing-down specialist J.D. McKissic, third-round pick Brian Robinson and second-year pro Jaret Patterson. The Commanders may be extra cautious after last year's experience with Curtis Samuel picking up a soft-tissue injury during the offseason.

Opens training camp on side field
Gibson (hamstring) was spotted working out on a side field Wednesday during the first day of Washington's veteran training camp, Pete Hailey of NBC Sports Washington reports.
Analysis: Gibson may still be nursing the hamstring injury which caused him to miss a bit of time during OTAs, an issue which coach Ron Rivera downplayed at the time. The Commanders aren't yet practicing in pads, so it's too early to raise any alarms, but Gibson's status will warrant monitoring as training camp continues. In the meantime, rookie third-round pick Brian Robinson could continue to see an uptick of first-team reps.

Picks up minor hamstring injury
Gibson suffered a minor hamstring injury during OTAs on Wednesday, Pete Hailey of NBC Sports Washington reports.
Analysis: Head coach Ron Rivera used the word "slightly" to downplay the severity of Gibson's hamstring issue, so there's not yet any reason for significant worry about the possibility of the running back missing any portion of mandatory minicamp. Of course, considering the delicate nature of hamstring injuries, the Commanders will likely refrain from rushing Gibson back out on the field. In the meantime, rookie third-round pick Brian Robinson could benefit from increased reps with the first-team offense.

Competition for carries increases
Coach Ron Rivera said Thursday he hopes Gibson and rookie third-round pick Brian Robinson will operate as a "potential 1-2 punch," Grant Paulsen of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rivera likened the new backfield tandem of Gibson and Robinson to Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams, who operated as a formidable duo during his time as the Panthers' head coach. Gibson was already primed have his receiving upside limited by pass-catching complement J.D. McKissic, who opted to stick around in Washington, and it now looks like he isn't a complete lock to dominate the bulk of work between the tackles.

Spectacular finish to season
Gibson rushed 21 times for 146 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of three targets for five yards in Washington's 22-7 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: The second-year back topped off the campaign with a spectacular showing, putting himself comfortably over the 1,000-yard mark in the process. Gibson was one of the few bright spots during a profoundly disappointing second half for Washington, as he gained 88 yards or more on the ground in three of the last six contests.

Gibson (hip) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Giants, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: It is possible Washington scales back his workload in a game without playoff implications, especially after Jaret Patterson's solid showing last week when Gibson was on the COVID list, but it's also possible the second-year pro simply returns to his usual dominance of the rushing workload. Whatever the case, Gibson will be out there this Sunday, presumably starting and working as the lead back in a matchup of disappointed division rivals.

He made his way back to the active roster Wednesday, but his practice reps continued to be capped by the hip issue.

Analysis: Washington made multiple roster moves Saturday, but Gibson wasn't activated by the team in advance of Week 17 action. Until the running back, who is also dealing with a hip issue, clears the NFL's COVID protocols, Jaret Patterson is poised to serve as Washington's lead option on the ground, with Jonathan Williams also factoring into the team's backfield mix as well as Wendell Smallwood.

Washington placed Gibson (hip) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.
Analysis: According to John Keim of ESPN.com, Gibson is vaccinated, which means he was placed on the list as a result of testing positive. He'll theoretically have a chance to play Sunday against the Eagles if he can test out of the protocol in rapid fashion, though the timing of his placement on the list makes that highly unlikely. With that in mind, Jaret Patterson could be in line to serve as Washington's lead option on the ground Week 17, with Jonathan Williams also factoring into the backfield mix.

Gibson was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a hip injury, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gibson dealt with a shin fracture for most of the season and more recently a toe injury, but it's the hip issue that has him listed as limited to begin Week 17. He'll more than likely give it a go this Sunday against the Eagles following a limited workload in the Week 16 blowout loss to Dallas. Gibson was one of the few bright spots for Washington during a brutal first half, but he barely played over the final two quarters while the game was well out of reach.

The sinking Football Team hasn't been able to provide positive game scripts for its starting running back, resulting in an average of 31.3 rushing yards over his last three games.

Analysis: Gibson overcame a minor toe injury early in the contest to log a solid workload, but there was little running room to be had against a surprisingly stout Eagles front. However, the second-year back did make a sizable impact through the air, pacing the team in receptions in the process.

Gibson ran for 36 yards on 10 carries and lost a fumble against Dallas on Sunday.
Analysis: Gibson is capable of breezing past 20 carries in close games or ones where Washington has the lead, but Sunday, the Football Team was only able to get within striking distance in the fourth quarter. Gibson's opportunity level dwindled as a result, leaving him with his lowest carry count since Week 8. Gibson also lost his fourth fumble of the season Sunday, certainly a worrisome trend.

After playing no more than 20 percent of Washington's third downs in the team's first 11 games, Gibson was on the field for 57 percent of those scenarios Week 13, which helped him draw six targets, good for a 20 percent share of quarterback Taylor Heinicke's pass attempts on the day.

Gibson rushed 24 times for 64 yards and two touchdowns and brought in both targets for 14 yards in Washington's 29-19 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: Gibson put an exclamation point on Washington's upset win against the defending champs with his second one-yard touchdown of the contest. The score capped off a 19-play, 80-yard march that absorbed 10:26 of the fourth quarter and saw Gibson log a whopping nine carries. Gibson's multi-score tally was his second of the season, but he'll have a significant roadblock in trying to replicate it against a stingy Panthers defense in Week 11.

Gibson (shin) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson played through a stress fracture in his shin in each of Washington's five games before a Week 9 bye, racking up 77 touches for 301 yards from scrimmage and three touchdowns. In the same time span, change-of-pace back J.D. McKissic totaled a 50-325-1 line, respectively. Gibson appears to be operating under similar practice limitations from before the midseason respite, so his status should continue to be watched to ensure he's out there on game days.

Shares load in Sunday's loss
Gibson carried the ball eight times for 34 yards and caught all three of his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: His 11 touches exactly matched both J.D. McKissic (three carries, eight catches) and rookie Jaret Patterson (11 carries), with McKissic significantly out-producing both his backfield mates. While Gibson was cleared off the injury report prior to Sunday's game, Washington's treatment of the second-year back was a clear sign he isn't 100 percent, but he'll get some extra time to heal up during a Week 9 bye.

Cleared for Sunday
Gibson (shin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Denver, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gibson will continue playing through his stress fracture and figures to continue dominating Washington's rushing volume, but he has lost a few more snaps to pass-catching specialist J.D. McKissic in recent weeks, in part because Washington regularly has been chasing deficits. While the shin injury also may be a factor, Gibson still has 12 or more touches in every game this season.

Practicing again Friday
Gibson (shin) is participating at Friday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson has practiced as a limited participant this week due to the shin issue, and it appears he'll at least be working in that capacity again Friday. The 23-year-old played after being considered questionable for last week's loss to the Packers, though he saw action on only 41 percent of the offensive snaps. He still had 16 touches in the contest, but it's clear the hairline fracture in his shin is a limiting factor. Gibson appears on track to play Sunday at Denver, but he could continue to…read more

Remains limited Thursday
Gibson (shin) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Washington continues to place a cap on Gibson's practice reps, but the limitations haven't impacted his ability to play through a stress fracture in his shin over the last four games. During that stretch, he's combined for 66 touches for 247 yards from scrimmage and three TDs, while No. 2 running back J.D. McKissic concurrently earned 39 touches for 99 total yards and one score. Clearly, Gibson is the top back in an offense beset by injuries, making him a must play on a weekly basis.

Limited again by shin injury
Gibson (shin) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gibson has managed to play through a hairline fracture in his shin for four consecutive outings, during which he's combined for 58 carries for 218 yards and three touchdowns to go with eight catches (on nine targets) for 29 yards. J.D. McKissic, Gibson's backfield mate, has actually out-snapped the latter over the last two contests, but he's only accounted for 39 touches for 232 yards from scrimmage and one score during that same four-game stretch.

Quiet on 14 carries
Gibson ran for 51 yards on 14 carries against Green Bay on Sunday while catching two passes on two targets for five yards.
Analysis: Gibson continues to play through a hairline shin fracture that appears to be hindering him as a runner, and his sluggish 2021 rushing production to this point seems to support that idea. Through seven games, Gibson has 408 yards and three touchdowns on 103 carries, leaving him with an average of 4.0 yards per carry and just one 20-yard carry after producing five carries of 20-plus yards at 4.7 yards per carry over 170 attempts in 2020.

Cleared for Week 7
Gibson (shin) is active for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Analysis: Gibson has been tending to a hairline fracture of his shin for a few weeks now, but the injury has yet to force him to miss any time. That said, Gibson's efficiency has nosedived over the last month, with the running back averaging just 3.5 yards per carry over Washington's past four games. Washington will enter Sunday's game as a heavy underdog, and if the Packers are able to establish an early lead and force the Football Team into catchup mode, Gibson's opportunities as a ball carrier could…read more

Analysis: Schefter relays that the running back spent the early part of the season playing with a hairline fracture in his shin, an injury Ben Standig of The Athletic reports that Gibson previously described as a stress fracture. Regardless, Gibson has displayed improvement of late and is feeling better as Week 7 action approaches.

Expects to play
Gibson (shin), though listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers, said Friday that he's confident he'll play this weekend, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The running back acknowledged suffering a painful aggravation of his injury last weekend, but he said it didn't affect his play once he returned to the field against Kansas City. He now plans to tough it out for what will be at least a fourth straight week playing through a stress fracture, though it's possible J.D. McKissic gets more work if Gibson runs into trouble again.

Gibson (shin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Green Bay, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson aggravated the stress fracture in his shin during last week's loss to the Chiefs, though game script may have been the larger factor in his season-low 40 percent snap share. His missed practice Wednesday was another potential sign of trouble, but Gibson then bounced back with limited participation Thursday and Friday, seemingly preparing to play through the injury again.

Analysis: Gibson sat out Wednesday's practice but returned as a limited participant Thursday, and it appears he's working in that capacity again Friday, at a minimum.

Gibson (shin) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: After sitting out Wednesday's session, Gibson has begun a slow ramp-up as Washington prepares for Sunday's visit to Green Bay. It's a positive sign for the running back, who has been playing through a stress fracture in his shin since Week 4. Gibson's offensive snap share suffered this past Sunday against the Chiefs -- a season-low 40 percent -- but he still had 12 touches, while J.D. McKissic had 16 on the other 60 percent.

Gibson (shin) was spotted participating in position drills Thursday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It remains to be seen how the team lists Gibson's participation level, but his presence at practice Thursday, in any capacity, is a step in the right direction for the running back after he sat out Wednesday's session. Though Gibson has been dealing with what's been described as as a stress fracture in his shin since Week 4, he's been able to suit up for Washington's three games since then.

Analysis: Gibson has been dealing with what's been termed as a stress fracture in his shin since Week 4, but he's subsequently played three straight games on his way to 50 touches for 191 yards from scrimmage and three touchdowns. His practice limitations are likely precautionary, and he'll still have two practices to prove his health ahead of Sunday's visit to Green Bay.

Undergoes MRI
Coach Ron Rivera said Monday that Gibson (calf) underwent an MRI, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson sustained a calf injury late in Sunday's Week 6 loss to Kansas City, and the results of his exam should help determine the extent of the issue. The 23-year-old rushed 10 times for 44 yards while hauling in two of three targets for no yards prior to his exit Sunday, and J.D. McKissic is in line for additional work if Gibson is forced to miss time.

Hurts calf Sunday
Gibson injured his calf during Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.
Analysis: Gibson was examined for a shin injury early in the contest but was able to return to action. Now, he's again being looked at by Washington trainers, only this time a calf issue is to blame. If he's unable to get back on the field, Gibson will finish Week 6 with 12 touches for 44 total yards. In Gibson's stead, J.D. McKissic will be the prime beneficiary, though undrafted rookie Jaret Patterson could get some run, too.

Analysis: Gibson never practiced fully this week while he continues to battle a stress fracture in his shin, but Washington hasn't suggested his workload will be limited on account of the injury. While appearing on injury reports the past two weeks on account of the same issue, Gibson has averaged 17 touches between games against the Falcons and Saints.

Analysis: The final injury report apparently wasn't quite final, with the team updating it after about 20 minutes to list Gibson as questionable rather than with no designation. He's nonetheless expected to continue playing through a shin fracture, just as he did the past two weeks when listed as questionable. Still, cautious fantasy managers should check back in to be safe when Washington releases its inactive list at 11:30 a.m. ET this Sunday.

Cleared to play
Gibson (shin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Kansas City, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: He'll continue playing through a hairline fracture, having said himself that the injury isn't really bothering him, though it has limited his practice participation in recent weeks. Gibson took 34 carries for 123 yards and three touchdowns over his past two games, and he could be the clear centerpiece of Washington's offense come Sunday if WR Terry McLaurin (Q/hamstring) is absent or limited. The Chiefs rank bottom five in most efficiency metrics for both pass defense and run defense.

Carries offense in loss
Gibson rushed for 60 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries in Sunday's 33-22 loss to the Saints. He also caught both his targets for 12 yards.
Analysis: The running back dealt with a stress fracture in his shin throughout the week in practice, but Gibson still handled his usual workload and scored Washington's only two TDs of the day, punching the ball home from five yards out in the second quarter and from the one-yard line in the fourth. Assuming he's able to keep playing through his injury, Gibson could be poised for another big performance in Week 6 against a soft Kansas City run defense.

Playing through stress fracture
Gibson, who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against New Orleans, revealed Friday that he's been playing through a stress fracture in his shin, noting that it doesn't hurt badly and doesn't seem too serious, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Between his comments Friday, the fact he played last week and his limited practice participation Thursday and Friday, the young running back appears well on his way to suiting up this Sunday. However, the revelation about a stress fracture adds to concern about his chances of staying on the field throughout the season, not to mention the possibility of an in-game aggravation in the coming weeks.

Analysis: Gibson played through the same shin issue last Sunday following a mid-week addition to the injury report, taking 14 carries for 63 yards and a touchdown while playing 55 percent of the snaps in a 34-30 win over the Falcons. He'll likely play again this weekend, but fantasy managers should still check in Sunday to make sure Gibson isn't on the inactive list ahead of the game's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Gibson (shin) rushed 14 times for 63 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Gibson didn't seem limited by the shin injury that cropped up late in the week, as he got 14 of Washington's 23 rushing attempts by running backs. He scored his first rushing touchdown of the season from two yards out in the second quarter. Talks of a three-down role for Gibson have fizzled out with J.D.

Analysis: Gibson popped up on the injury report Thursday and didn't participate in practice. However, he took part in position drills Friday and traveled to Atlanta with the team. That seemingly puts Gibson on track to play, and he'll hope to see a boost in involvement in the offense after drawing only 15 and 13 touches in Washington's last two games, respectively.

Explodes for TD reception in loss
Gibson rushed 12 times for just 31 yards but brought in one of two targets for a 73-yard touchdown in Washington's 43-21 loss to the Bills on Sunday.
Analysis: Gibson's lackluster day on the ground was offset by his touchdown reception, a second-quarter play on which the speedy running back flashed his explosiveness by taking a screen pass and outrunning multiple Bills defenders to the end zone. His rushing yardage tally was a disappointment after he'd combined for 159 yards on the ground over the first two games, but he'll look to capitalize on a potentially favorable Week 4 road matchup versus the Falcons.

Gibson took more of a back seat to J.D.

Analysis: Through two games, Gibson ranks 18th in offensive snap share among NFL running backs at 62.9 percent, which has translated to 33 carries for 159 yards (4.8 YPC) and five catches (on seven targets) for 22 yards. Meanwhile, J.D. McKissic (40.3 percent) has totaled 10 touches for 101 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown. With a capped session under his belt to kick off Week 3, Gibson doesn't seem in danger of missing time, but his status nonetheless bears watching as the week goes on.

Efficient on ground in win
Gibson rushed 13 times for 69 yards and brought in both targets for four yards in Washington's 30-29 win over the Giants on Thursday night.
Analysis: Gibson's rushing opportunities were ultimately capped partly by game script despite the favorable matchup, as backfield mate J.D. McKissic ended up seeing quite a bit of work in a frenetic fourth quarter. Gibson still turned in a second straight efficient rushing performance to open the 2021 campaign, giving him 159 yards on 33 carries over his first pair of contests.

Totals 108 yards in loss
Gibson carried the ball 20 times for 90 yards and caught three of his five targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Chargers. He also fumbled.
Analysis: Perhaps more crucial than Gibson's final yardage total was the fact he commanded a three-down role, seeing more targets than J.D. McKissic (one) while out-carrying the combo of McKissic and Jaret Patterson by a whopping 20-to-3 margin. It certainly helps that the second-year back looked good with the extra usage, bursting through the line of scrimmage on a number of occasions. The offense may need to rely more heavily on Gibson in the coming weeks after starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick was…read more

Handles nine touches
Gibson rushed the ball seven times for 28 yards and also recorded two receptions for 19 yards in Friday's preseason game against Cincinnati.
Analysis: Gibson played in all four series with presumed starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, which equated to the entirety of the first quarter. Though he didn't find the end zone, Gibson did provide chunk gains of nine and seven yards on the ground as well as a 14-yard reception. Gibson has been in the news recently after Kyle Allen told the media that the team wants to use him in a Christian McCaffrey role this season. While it remains to be seen if Gibson can live up to that standard, it appears…read more

Feeling healthy again
Gibson says he no longer feels lingering effects from last year's turf toe injury, Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Two months ago, Gibson revealed that his toe still had some discomfort that required treatment, though nothing that was impacting his participation in practice. Even if his risk of re-injury remains somewhat heightened, this doesn't sound like a threat to Gibson's availability or workload at the beginning of the year. He's locked in as Washington's starting running back and lead runner, with potential to take more receiving work away from J.D. McKissic this year. Washington coach Ron Rivera…read more

Shines at OTAs despite toe issue
Gibson (toe) hasn't shown any limitations during OTAs in June, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Running backs coach Randy Jordan and head coach Ron Rivera both had lofty praise for Gibson, with Jordan even using the term "night and day" to describe the running back's development since last year. However, it wasn't all good news coming out of OTAs, as Gibson revealed he's still receiving treatment for the toe injury that sidelined him for Weeks 14 and 15 of his rookie season. It sounds like a matter of maintenance rather than an acute issue, considering Gibson was a full participant in…read more

Still bothered by toe
Gibson said Wednesday that he hasn't fully healed from the toe injury he suffered last season, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: After missing Weeks 14 and 15, the rookie returned for Weeks 16 and 17 and Washington's lone playoff contest, though he was limited to 185 total yards and zero touchdowns over the three-game stretch. Gibson didn't need surgery after the season, but it's apparently been a slow process working his way back from turf toe, as he still notices pain and discomfort at times. That said, Gibson has been practicing with teammates at OTAs, where he says he's been running and cutting at full speed. He also…read more

Won't need toe procedure
Gibson indicated that he won't require an offseason procedure to address the toe issue he played through down the stretch this season, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gibson, who is currently listed on the Washington Football Team web site as 6-foot-2, 220 pounds, also noted that he hopes to slim down some this offseason, with an eye toward gaining more explosiveness as a runner. In 14 games this past season, the 2020 third-rounder carried 170 times for 795 yards and 11 TDs, while catching 36 of his 44 targets for 247 yards. Looking ahead, Gibson is slated to head his team's backfield from the get-go in 2021 and in that context, he should see increased…read more

Struggles in wild-card loss
Gibson (toe) rushed 14 times for 31 yards and secured two of three targets for four yards in Washington's 31-23 wild-card loss to the Buccaneers on Saturday night.
Analysis: The rookie back was able to work through his toe issue as he had during the final two regular-season games, but he unsurprisingly found running room at a premium against the Buccaneers' No. 1-ranked rush defense. Despite missing two games to injury and splitting carries throughout the majority of the campaign, Gibson still finished his first pro season with a solid 4.7 yards per carry, 11 rushing touchdowns and 36 receptions over 14 regular-season games. He'll look to build on those numbers…read more

Analysis: For a third consecutive contest, Gibson is playing through a turf toe injury. In the first two outings, he combined for 33 touches for 150 yards from scrimmage. That said, he hasn't reached the end zone since torching the Cowboys for three touchdowns back in Week 12.

Questionable for wild-card round
Gibson (toe) is listed as questionable for Saturday's wild-card game versus the Buccaneers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson sat out Weeks 14 and 15 due to a turf toe injury, but he was able to cap the season with appearances in both of Washington's final two games of the campaign. Considering he took on 33 touches for 150 yards from scrimmage in those outings, he should be good to go this weekend, which will be confirmed approximately 90 minutes before Saturday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Gibson (toe) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gibson played through the toe injury the past two weeks, but he felt well enough to handle 20 touches and play 59 percent of the offensive snaps in Washington's victory over Philadelphia in the regular-season finale. He draws a tough matchup in the wild-card round, facing a Bucs defense that led the league in both rushing yards allowed (80.6 per game) and opponent yards per carry (3.6).

Gets in work on side
Gibson (toe) worked with the training staff on the side during Wednesday's practice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gibson played through a turf toe injury Weeks 16 and 17, racking up 136 yards on 29 rushes and hauling in four of five targets for 14 yards. He didn't log any practice reps last week before suiting up for the regular-season finale against the Eagles, so he doesn't necessarily have to take part in drills this week to be cleared for Saturday's wild-card game versus the Buccaneers. Wednesday's injury report will reveal whether or not Gibson made an appearance on the practice field.

Listed as DNP
Gibson (toe) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gibson logged 37 of a possible 63 snaps on offense in this past Sunday's playoff-clinching win over the Eagles, en route to carrying 19 times for 75 yards. With no reported setbacks in that contest, it seems likely that Gibson's DNP listing Tuesday is indicative of him continuing to manage the toe issue that led to him being listed as questionable heading into Week 17 action.

Posts 75 yards in crucial win
Gibson (toe) rushed 19 times for 75 yards and caught his lone target for six yards in Sunday's playoff-clinching win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Gibson concludes his rookie campaign with 795 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns on 170 carries (4.7 yards per tote) while catching 36 passes for 247 more yards. Washington unearthed a gem in the third round of this year's draft, and the breakout back let the world know with a monstrous three-touchdown showcase against the Cowboys on Thanksgiving.

Analysis: Gibson is playing through a turf toe injury at the moment, which sidelined him Weeks 14 and 15 before he mustered 69 yards from scrimmage on 13 touches last Sunday against the Panthers. Washington can clinch the NFC East with a victory Sunday, so Gibson may attempt to increase the 30-percent share of the offensive snaps that he garnered Week 16.

Analysis: There were no reports that Gibson suffered a setback in his return to action in last week's loss to Carolina, but there will inevitably be some level of concern after he was held out of practice Wednesday through Friday. If he doesn't end up playing Sunday, Washington likely would split backfield work between J.D. McKissic and Peyton Barber, as was the case Weeks 14 and 15.

The missed practice time might seem worrisome, but head coach Ron Rivera has said the rookie running backs is "fine," and offensive coordinator Scott Turner said Gibson's reduced snap share last week was a product of game script.

Tallies 69 yards in return
Gibson carried the ball 10 times for 61 yards in Week 16 against the Panthers. He added three receptions for eight yards.
Analysis: Gibson returned to the field for the first time since Week 13 after recovering from a toe injury. Washington fell behind and was scripted out of their run game early on, though Gibson still accounted for 10 of the team's 19 rushing attempts -- three of which went to quarterbacks. Gibson also showcased some explosiveness, breaking off gains of 22 and 13 yards . He should be relied upon heavily with the NFC East title at stake in a Week 17 matchup against the Eagles.

Analysis: Gibson was removed early in Monday's win over the Steelers with the left foot injury, playing just four snaps and finishing with 14 yards on two carries. Washington doesn't yet have an estimated timeline for Gibson's return, but turf toe injuries often sideline players for multiple games. Assuming Gibson is forced to sit out this weekend's game, J.D.

Unlikely to return to Monday's game
Gibson suffered a toe injury and is doubtful to return to Monday's game at Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Gibson was clearly hobbled after a first-quarter run as he went to sideline. Per Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post, Gibson had the big toe on his left foot wrapped and tested it out behind the bench. However, Gibson walked about with a distinct limp, according to Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic, and Washington soon made a ruling on the running back's status. With Gibson unlikely to return, J.D. McKissic and Peyton Barber will be the team's only running backs for the remainder of the contest.

Smashes Cowboys for three TDs
Gibson carried the ball 20 times for 115 yards and three touchdowns and caught five of seven targets for 21 yards in Thursday's 41-16 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: The Dallas defense simply had no answer for Washington's running game -- even Peyton Barber averaged 5.2 yards a carry -- and Gibson took full advantage, scoring on a five-yard scamper in the first quarter before reeling off 23-yard and 37-yard scores as his team pulled away in the fourth. In the process, Gibson became the first rookie to score three TDs in a Thanksgiving Day game since Randy Moss, who racked up three scores on the Cowboys in 1998.

Analysis: Washington capped Gibson's practice reps Wednesday due to a shoulder issue, only to clear him for all activity one day later. With his health not in question, he can focus on Sunday's matchup against the Lions, who have allowed a whopping 186.5 yards from scrimmage per game and 15 touchdowns to running backs through eight contests this season.

Dealing with shoulder injury
Gibson didn't practice Wednesday due to a shoulder injury, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson is coming off a career-low nine touches in Sunday's loss to the Giants, resulting in 55 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown. His offensive snap share (46 percent) wasn't out of the norm, but perhaps the shoulder issue forced Washington to use J.D. McKissic a bit more (12 touches, 83 percent share). In any case, Gibson's status will be one to watch as the weekend approaches to get a sense of his availability for Week 10.

Scores TD in losing effort
Gibson collected 20 rushing yards and one touchdown on six carries, adding three receptions for 35 yards during Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Giants. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: Gibson garnered six of nine RB carries for Washington while collecting his team's lone rushing score, but J.D. McKissic dominated the position's passing-game work, commanding 14 targets to the rookie's three. The Memphis product posted an outstanding 128-yard, one-touchdown effort on 20 carries in Week 7 before his inefficient rushing outing Sunday, but in terms of his receiving upside, it's now been two consecutive games Gibson has been held to three or fewer receptions. He had accumulated…read more

Thrives in workhorse role
Gibson carried 20 times for 128 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 25-3 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Gibson gashed the struggling Dallas defense for 6.4 yards per carry while scoring a 12-yard touchdown in the first quarter. He failed to haul in his only target in the passing game, but that was mostly due to the fact that his team played from ahead for most of the game and was content to keep the ball on the ground for the most part. Gibson could receive a similar workload in what should be a competitive game against the Giants in Week 9 following the WFT's bye, and he'll look to add to his…read more

Posts 55 total yards in loss
Gibson rushed nine times for 30 yards and secured four of five targets for 25 yards in the Washington Football Team's 20-19 loss to the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Gibson logged just one more carry than backfield mate J.D. McKissic and saw one fewer target, as coach Ron Rivera continued to keep the workload split fairly evenly between the two. Naturally, that approach isn't doing fantasy managers any favors, and with McKissic actually more productive on a per-touch basis Sunday, it isn't likely Gibson separates into a true lead-back role any time soon. As such, the rookie's fantasy prospects remain mixed heading into a Week 7 battle against the Cowboys.

Logs full practice Thursday
Gibson (toe) practiced fully Thursday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: One day removed from having limitations on his practice reps, Gibson handled all of them. After earning 11 touches Week 1, he's averaged 14.8 touches for 72.8 yards from scrimmage per game and scored three TDs over the last four contests. Considering he's earning most of the RB touches for Washington, Gibson will look to strike Sunday against a Giants defense that has allowed 172.8 total yards per game to running backs this season.

Limited by toe injury
Gibson (toe) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson is a new addition to the injury report, after handling his typical workload (16 touches, 56 percent snap share) in Sunday's 30-10 loss to the Rams. His ability to practice -- even on a limited basis -- suggests he's expected to be available for this weekend's game against the Giants. The rookie has taken nine or more carries in every game, and he now has back-to-back weeks with five targets.

Compiles 51 total yards in loss
Gibson rushed 11 times for 27 yards and brought in all five targets for 24 yards in the Washington Football Team's 30-10 loss to the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: The versatile running back once again paced the backfield in carries and had a solid role in the passing game, but with the duo of Kyle Allen and Alex Smith averaging a minuscule 3.7 yards per attempt, there just wasn't much upside to be had. Gibson does appear to enjoy clear lead-back status at the moment, and the fact he's seen five targets apiece in back-to-back games is certainly encouraging. Gibson will look for more overall production and opportunity in a favorable Week 6 road matchup…read more

Powers Washington offense
Gibson carried the ball 13 times for 46 yards and a touchdown in Week 4 against Baltimore. He added four receptions on five targets for 82 yards.
Analysis: After Gibson showed glimpses of promise in Week 3, he provided a breakout performance one week later against the Ravens. He commanded 13 of the team's 22 rushing attempts, including a goal-line carry that he converted for a two-yard score. Gibson also showed explosiveness in the passing game, taking a screen pass for 40 yards halfway through the second quarter. He appears to have taken over as the clear lead back in Washington's backfield heading into a Week 5 matchup against the Rams.

Leads Washington in rushing
Gibson carried the ball nine times for 49 yards and a touchdown in Week 3 against the Browns. He also added three catches for 11 yards.
Analysis: Gibson found the end zone for the second consecutive game, converting a two-yard score to cap off a third-quarter drive. While that helped him to a productive day, he also broke off rushes of 13 and nine yards. The only downside to his performance was a lost fumble to end the first half, though the mistake did not have a major impact on the outcome of the game. While Gibson still saw only nine of the 22 carries out of Washington's backfield, it seems to be only a matter of time before he…read more

Scores first NFL touchdown
Gibson ran the ball 13 times for 55 yards and a touchdown and caught one of two targets for minus-three yards in Sunday's 30-15 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: His first NFL score came late in the fourth quarter on an 11-yard run as Washington attempted to mount a comeback. Gibson continues to show flashes of his talent, and the third-round pick could find some success in Week 3's road tilt against a Browns defense that just gave up 86 scrimmage yards to Joe Mixon.

Receives 11 touches in debut
Gibson gained 36 yards on nine carries and added two additional yards while snaring both his targets during Sunday's 27-17 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Making his NFL debut, Gibson led the team in rushing despite receiving roughly half as many carries as Peyton Barber. The majority of his production came on a nifty 20-yard scamper, but nevertheless, it was encouraging to see him average 4.0 yards per carry against one of the tougher run defenses in the league. Barber did score twice on the day, but perhaps Gibson's more productive per-touch numbers could earn him additional usage next Sunday against the Cardinals.

Behind McKissic on depth chart
Washington listed Gibson as the No. 2 running back on the unofficial depth chart the team released Tuesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: J.D. McKissic sits atop the depth chart heading into Week 1, but his presence there doesn't necessarily mean he'll take Washington's first snap or lead the backfield in carries and touches in Sunday's season opener versus the Eagles. Instead, Washington is expected to make use of a committee of running backs that includes McKissic, Gibson, Peyton Barber and Bryce Love. The latter two backs will likely see most of their use in pure running situations, while McKissic's skills as a pass catcher…read more

Emergence contributes to AP release
Gibson's emergence during training camp played a role in Washington's decision to release Adrian Peterson on Friday, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.
Analysis: The third-round rookie already was ticketed for a role in the Week 1 gameplan, but it was Peterson who was widely viewed as the favorite to serve as the lead runner. It's now possible GIbson handles the job, though this report notes that Peyton Barber could also get carries, and the team still has J.D. McKissic for passing downs. Gibson is the one with three-down potential, even if it doesn't materialize right away.

Getting work with starters
Gibson had a couple nice runs with the first-team offense at the beginning of Monday's practice, Kyle Stackpole of the official team website reports.
Analysis: Washington seems to be taking a mix-and-match approach with its running backs, splitting first-team reps between Gibson, Adrian Peterson, Bryce Love, J.D. McKissic and Peyton Barber. While Peterson remains the favorite for the Week 1 start, it's Gibson who offers the highest ceiling for fantasy value down the road, combining pass-catching skill with 4.39 speed in a 228-pound frame. Peterson and Barber are early down bruisers with minimal receiving ability, while McKissic is an undersized…read more
