Antonio Gibson Shows Grit In Week 2 Victory, Despite Limited Ground Game

Antonio Gibson, the 25-year-old running back for the Washington Commanders, had a quiet day on the ground in Week 2 against the Denver Broncos, but made his presence felt in the passing game.

Fantasy Impact: Gibson only managed nine yards on two carries, but he was a reliable target in the air, hauling in all three of his targets for 44 yards. Despite the lack of touchdowns, Gibson’s versatility was on full display, especially in the fourth quarter when he turned a short pass into a 36-yard gain, setting up a crucial score. His performance helped the Commanders edge out the Broncos in a nail-biter, 35-33. Gibson’s season stats are modest so far, with 18 rushing yards and 54 receiving yards over two games, ranking him as RB24 for the week and RB42 for the season. Next week, Gibson and the Commanders will face off against the Buffalo Bills, where he’ll look to build on his Week 2 performance.
