Michael Floyd catches one pass in Week 7.

Floyd’s lone reception went for 20 yards—his first reception as a member of the Redskins. The veteran receiver had a chance at a Hail Mary catch at the end of the first half, but the ball hit his chest; it certainly could have been caught, but it was in some traffic. Floyd is not a fantasy option right now.

Maurice Harris catches three passes against the Cowboys.

Maurice gained 22 yards on his three receptions (three targets), as he drew a start with Paul Richardson and Jamison Crowder out in the Week 7 win. Harris is more of a real-life contributor than fantasy option at the moment.

Josh Doctson catches three passes in Week 7.

Doctson gained 42 yards on his three receptions against the Cowboys. The third-year receiver was Alex Smith’s No. 1 wide receiver with Paul Richardson and Jamison Crowder out, and he drew a team-high six targets in the win. The former first-round pick got open on a deep ball, but it was just a bit too far—he showed great effort with a diving attempt for the ball. Doctson isn’t a recommended fantasy option at the moment.

Jordan Reed catches two passes in Week 7.

Reed gained 43 yards on his two receptions, making a couple of key catches for 27 and 16 yards against the Cowboys. Reed hasn’t scored since Week 1 and he doesn’t appear to be playing a full slate of snaps, but he’s in the TE1 mix next week against the Giants.

Samaje Perine gets two carries against the Cowboys.

Perine gained two yards on his two attempts in the Week 7 win. The second-year back has shown he can play well in the NFL, but his role isn’t big enough to deliver fantasy value right now.

Kapri Bibbs scores in Redskins’ win.

Bibbs carried two times for 13 yards and caught four passes for 43 yards and a touchdown against the Cowboys. The score came in the first quarter on a 23-yard screen pass in which he broke a couple of arm tackles. Bibbs has stepped up while Chris Thompson has been injured, and he’ll be in the PPR FLEX mix if Thompson misses Week 8 against the Giants.

Adrian Peterson gets 25 touches in Week 7.

Peterson carried 24 times for 99 yards and added one reception for eight yards, as he headlined the Redskins offense in a hard-fought NFC East win against the Cowboys. The future Hall of Famer continues to run the ball very well, even if he doesn’t have the same elite explosiveness he did in the past. “All Day” should continue to be a workhorse against the Giants next week, so he remains a solid option in fantasy lineups for Week 8. Peterson has 96+ rushing yards in four of six games this season.
