Austin Ekeler
RB - Washington Commanders
2025 Outlook
Availability
Expert Note
View More NotesAustin Ekeler was a nice surprise when on the field last year. He dealt with two concussions in 2024, which forced him to miss five games, but when active, he was the RB29 in fantasy points per game. He had some elevated usage in weeks where Brian Robinson Jr. was limited or out, so I think we can project some regression in 2025 if Robinson Jr. can put together a healthy season. Also, the addition of Deebo Samuel could cut into Ekeler's short-area passing game usage. Last year, Ekeler was 11th in target share and third in yards per route run among backs. I expect the target share to dip some. Ekeler is still a decent late-round flex flier.
