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

Playing Saturday
Gibson (toe) is active for Saturday's wild-card game versus the Buccaneers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
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.

Looking good for Saturday
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. Gibson was already producing fantasy-worthy numbers prior to his explosion on national television, but his ascension to the top of the player rankings…read more

Active Sunday
Gibson (toe) is active for Sunday's game in Philadelphia, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.
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.

Likely to play Week 17
Gibson (toe), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, is expected to be "good to go" for the regular-season finale, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Gibson's availability won't be locked in until Washington releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff, but the rookie looks like he'll be ready to go as the Football Team looks to punch its ticket to the postseason. After missing Weeks 14 and 15 while battling turf toe, Gibson returned to action for the Week 16 loss to Carolina, playing 21 snaps and carrying 10 times for 61 yards while hauling in three of four targets for eight yards. Gibson didn't practice in…read more

Listed as questionable
GIbson (toe) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
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.

Not spotted Friday
Gibson (toe) isn't participating in the media-access portion of Friday's practice, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gibson returned from a two-game absence for last week's loss to the Panthers, taking 13 touches for 69 yards while playing 30 percent of offensive snaps. 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. Still, Gibson's status will bear monitoring when Washington releases its final injury report later Friday.

Analysis: For a second consecutive session, Gibson logged a DNP as he manages a turf toe injury that sidelined him Weeks 14 and 15. Coach Ron Rivera alleviated concerns Thursday, stating Gibson is "fine" and Washington is allowing the running back to get as much rest as possible to be ready for game day, according to JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington.

Though Washington didn't report that Gibson experience a setback in his return to action, his absence from two straight practices to begin Week 17 may indicate otherwise.

Missing practice to begin week
Gibson (toe) didn't practice Wednesday, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.
Analysis: Gibson is listed with the same toe injury that kept him out in Weeks 14 and 15. He then returned for Sunday's loss to the Panthers, taking 10 carries for 61 yards and three catches for eight yards while playing just 30 percent of offensive snaps. The workload was disappointing relative to his pre-injury norm, but that seems to have been a matter of game script and context rather than any setback with Gibson's toe. Regardless, fantasy managers will want to keep an eye on his progress throughout…read more

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.

Gibson (toe) is listed as active Sunday against the Panthers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Back in action for the first time since suffering a turf toe injury Week 13 at Pittsburgh, Gibson could have a smaller workload than normal, considering he practiced in a limited capacity in advance of this contest. J.D. McKissic still is on hand for pass-catching reps out of Washington's backfield, while Peyton Barber is available for early-down work and short-yardage situations.

Analysis: Gibson was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday, with coach Rivera noting Thursday that the running back looked good. Both Gibson and quarterback Alex Smith (toe) appear truly questionable, while wideout Terry McLaurin (ankle) is listed as doubtful. J.D. McKissic earned 24 carries and 14 targets the past two weeks with Gibson inactive, working ahead of Peyton Barber (16 carries, four targets) for the most part.

Puts in limited practice
Gibson (toe) was limited at Thursday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: For a second session in a row, Gibson was contained to individual drills, hence the 'limited' tag. Afterward, coach Ron Rivera told JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington that Gibson "looked good," "took a number of reps" and "is making progress" through his turf toe injury. There's no telling if Gibson is trending toward a return Sunday against the Panthers, but Washington could clear up his status when it releases its final Week 16 practice report Friday.

Analysis: Gibson seems poised to match his activity level from Wednesday, when he was listed as a limited participant, but Thursday's injury report could reveal otherwise. In any case, he appears to be drawing close to ending his two-game absence due to a turf toe injury. Consequently, Gibson's status will be one to monitor as the weekend draws closer.

Analysis: Gibson capped last week with individual drills at Friday's practice and kicked off Week 16 prep with some work in team drills. Still, he was considered a limited participant for both sessions, meaning he continues to progress through his turf toe injury. Gibson will have two more chances to prove his health before Washington potentially gives him a designation for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Gibson (toe) participated in the walk-through portion of Wednesday's practice, Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Per JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington, Gibson also put in some work during team drills before hitting the sideline to consult with the equipment crew about his shoes. Gibson has missed the past two games due to a bout with turf toe, but his presence on the field both last Friday and to begin the current week is a decent sign that he's trending in the right direction. Washington will reveal how much work he was able to handle when it releases its first Week 16 injury report later Wednesday.

Officially inactive for Sunday
Gibson (toe) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gibson was able to avoid being ruled out Friday after he returned to practice in a limited fashion, but with Washington still listing him as "doubtful" for the contest, he never seemed to have much of a shot to suit up Week 15. With the rookie set to miss his second straight game, Washington will lean on a combination of J.D. McKissic and Peyton Barber out of the backfield. McKissic will handle most of the passing-down work and will mix in as a change-of-pace option, while Barber likely garners…read more

Analysis: Gibson only managed one limited practice this week before receiving the "doubtful" designation for Sunday's contest, so the fact that he'll be sidelined for a second straight game should come as no surprise. Expect the rookie to be officially ruled out with the release of Washington's inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. J.D.

On Wednesday, coach Ron Rivera told JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington that Gibson is making "good progress" through his turf toe injury, but he hasn't recovered enough to set foot on the practice field.

Looks doubtful for Week 14
Gibson is unlikely to play Sunday against the 49ers after being diagnosed with turf toe, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
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: Gibson may simply be receiving a bit of rest with a short week ahead of Thursday's game in Dallas, so for now his status simply bears monitoring. The rookie running back has compiled five rushing scores in his last four games. J.D. McKissic and Peyton Barber would handle Washington's backfield reps if Gibson ends up missing any time.

He also reached four receptions for the fourth time in his last six games, though he did little in that department outside a 13-yard catch and run.

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
