Seth McGowan vs. Commanders: Limited Depth Role Caps Fantasy Value

McGowan remains third on the Colts' backfield depth chart behind starter Jonathan Taylor and backup DJ Giddens. While he has logged six carries over the last two weeks, he has produced just 14 rushing yards and one catch across three appearances this year, keeping him firmly in a reserve role.

With an ownership rate hovering at just 2% and an active start rate of zero, he holds virtually no standalone value. We project him for approximately 10 rushing yards on two to three carries against Washington, meaning fantasy managers should keep him parked on the bench in all formats.

Keaton Mitchell at Seattle — Cleared from Ankle Scare into a Rotational Role

Mitchell avoided an injury designation for Week 4 after returning to practice following a mid-week ankle scare that briefly had him in a walking boot. He is fully cleared to play, but he remains locked in a shared committee backfield alongside Omarion Hampton and Kimani Vidal.

Coming off an efficient 52-yard rushing day and a receiving score in Week 3, Mitchell brings explosive big-play ability, but his limited touch count caps his weekly floor. Our weekly projection lands at approximately 5.5 fantasy points, and with just a 2% start rate, fantasy managers should keep him parked on the bench in standard leagues.
