Antonio Gibson - Page 30 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Limited by toe injury Gibson (toe) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Impact 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.

Impact 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 against the division-rival Giants.

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.

Impact 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.

Impact 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 emerges as the top option for the team.

Scores first NFL touchdown Gibson ran the ball 13 times for 55 yards and a touchdown and caught one of two targets for minus-3 yards in Sunday's 30-15 loss to the Cardinals.

Impact 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.

Impact 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.

Impact 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 could allow him to see steady work on three downs. During his final year at Memphis in 2019, Gibson excelled both as a runner (11.2 yards per carry on 33 totes) and receiver (38 receptions for 735 yards and eight scores), so the rookie third-round pick seemingly has the best potential among Washington's four backs to emerge as a three-down option. The uncertainty regarding Gibson's workload early on will make it difficult to depend on him in Week 1 fantasy lineups.
