Treylon Burks Fantasy Overview

After playing in only one game since Week 3, Washington WR Terry McLaurin returned to the Commanders' lineup and absorbed a team-high 14 targets in Washington's 27-26 overtime loss to Denver. McLaurin's presence made an immediate impact on Washington's offense. The Commanders racked up 419 yards of offense on Denver's elite defense, but it wasn't enough as the Broncos won their ninth straight.

Commanders WR Terry McLaurin (quad) won't play vs. the Dolphins on Sunday morning, HC Dan Quinn said. McLaurin will at least travel with the team to Spain -- and then get a Week 12 bye. We'll see if he can make it back for Week 13's meeting with the Broncos. Robbie Chosen and Treylon Burks finished second and third among Commanders WRs in routes last week, ahead of Jaylin Lane and Chris Moore. Deebo Samuel is the only Washington WR that should be anywhere close to Week 11 fantasy lineups.

Update: Burks has also been ruled out for Week 11 after undergoing finger surgery.

Commanders HC Dan Quinn admitted Monday that WR Terry McLaurin (quad) is unlikely to play vs. the Lions this weekend. That's not a surprise after NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said Sunday morning that McLaurin could be out through the team's Week 12 bye. With WRs Noah Brown and Luke McCaffrey also out, Washington will be down to WRs Deebo Samuel, Chris Moore, Jaylin Lane, and Treylon Burks against Detroit -- catching passes from QB Marcus Mariota.

Commanders WR Luke McCaffrey broke his collarbone in Sunday night's loss to the Seahawks and will be placed on IR, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. McCaffrey will "likely" miss the rest of the season, Rapoport adds. He can be dropped in all redraft leagues. It's another blow to a Washington WR corps that's missed Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown for much of the year. McLaurin could miss another couple of games, while Brown is out for at least one more. That leaves Deebo Samuel, Chris Moore, and Jaylin Lane as the team's top three WRs for this weekend's game vs. the Lions. Treylon Burks finished fourth among Commanders WRs in routes vs. Seattle after being elevated from the practice squad on Saturday.
