Jeremy McNichols fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Jeremy McNichols for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4
ANALYSIS: Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols will get a chance to serve as the primary backup running back when the Commanders face the Baltimore Ravens due to the absence of lead back Brian Robinson Jr. (knee) who has been ruled out. That doesn't mean you should start him.
#Ravens defense in five weeks:
• Yards/Pass - 8.1 (#29)
• Pass Yds/Game - 280.2 (#31)
• Points/Game - 25.2 (#26)
• RZ scoring % (TD) - 66.67% (#25)
• Yards/Rush - 3.1 (#1)
• Rush Yards/Game - 60.4 (#1)Might be a Terry McLaurin type of day #RaiseHail pic.twitter.com/L02Md6uStk

The Ravens have one of the worst pass defenses and one of the best run defenses in the NFL. That's not conducive for a third-string running back having a big day. Even RB Austin Ekeler, normally the backup but with the starting role for this game, may struggle to find space to work. Baltimore has elite run-stoppers, like All-Pro Roquan Smith.

McNichols would be a nice handcuff to stash if Robinson were out with a long-term injury. There aren't any indications that it is, so for now, McNichols remains best thought of as a bench stash in deeper leagues.
