Barber took four carries for five yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-15 loss to Seattle.

EDGE Analysis

Barber played only 16 percent of offensive snaps, down from 48 percent the previous week in the first game Antonio Gibson (toe) missed. Meanwhile, J.D. McKissic got 13 carries and 10 targets on 88 percent snap share, turning in a season-best fantasy performance despite Barber vulturing a goal-line touchdown. Even if Gibson misses more time, Barber won't necessarily get more than a handful of touches Week 16 against Carolina.

Barber (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Seattle, while fellow Washington running back Antonio Gibson (toe) is listed as doubtful, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barber is likely set for another game of splitting work with J.D. McKissic, after getting 12 carries and three targets on season-high 48 percent snap share in last week's 23-15 win over the 49ers. The upcoming matchup appears similarly difficult, as the Seattle defense has played well since midseason, and the Football Team will have Dwayne Haskins filling in for Alex Smith (calf) as the starting quarterback.

Barber (ankle) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Since Antonio Gibson got injured early in a Week 13 win at Pittsburgh, Barber has received 28 touches for 61 yards from scrimmage and one TD over two games. Meanwhile, receiving back J.D. McKissic has combined for 28 touches, 164 total yards and no scores. If Gibson is forced to miss Sunday's game due to his bout with turf toe, Barber and McKissic will continue to split work out of Washington's backfield.

Barber was limited at practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Starting running back Antonio Gibson missed most of Week 13 in Pittsburgh and was inactive Week 14 against the 49ers due to a turf toe injury, which allowed more snaps and touches for Barber. Unfortunately for Barber, he managed just 61 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown on 28 touches during that span. Now with an injury of his own in tow, he could be in danger of losing work, especially with Washington signing Lamar Miller off the Bears' practice squad Wednesday. As long as Gibson is sidelined, though, J.D. McKissic will be the back of note in this offense.

Barber took 12 carries for 37 yards and caught two of three targets for one yard in Sunday's 23-15 win over San Francisco.

EDGE Analysis

With Antonio Gibson (toe) inactive for the first time all year, Barber handled a season-high 48 percent snap share coming off the bench behind J.D. McKissic, who got one fewer carry (11) and one more target (four) while playing 65 percent of the offensive snaps. Neither running back got any goal-line chances, but Barber did handle clock-killing work in the fourth quarter, albeit with poor results. Gibson was unable to practice last week, so there's a decent chance it'll be another split between Barber and McKissic when Washington hosts Seattle in Week 15.

Barber is expected to serve as Washington's primary inside runner and short-yardage back Sunday against the 49ers with Antonio Gibson (toe) not expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

After exiting early in Monday's win over Pittsburgh, Gibson has been diagnosed with turf toe, an injury that often entails a multi-week recovery. While J.D. McKissic outpaced Barber by a healthy margin in terms of snaps (53 to 24) and passing-game usage Monday (10 targets to zero), the Auburn product saw the greater opportunity of the two on the ground (14 carries for 23 yards and a touchdown). Barber should be Washington's preferred option in goal-line situations Week 14, but his minimal involvement as a pass catcher and lack of big-play ability (six career 20-plus-yard runs in five seasons) means that he'll likely need to reach the end zone to pay dividends for fantasy managers. And if Washington falls behind early and is forced into catch-up mode throughout the contest, Barber will be at risk of being scripted out of the game plan entirely.

Barber rushed 14 times for 23 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 23-17 win over the Steelers.

EDGE Analysis

Barber assumed a heavier workload after rookie Antonio Gibson (knee) exited during the first quarter and did not return. The veteran capitalized from one-yard out to score his first touchdown since Week 1 in the third quarter. Should Gibson remain slowed Sunday against the 49ers, Barber would figure to split backfield work with J.D. McKissic, whose pass-catching ability counteracts Barber's more rugged running style.

Barber rushed 11 times for 57 yards in Thursday's 41-16 win over the Cowboys.

EDGE Analysis

Barber recorded his highest carry total since the season opener, translating it into a season high in rushing yards. The 26-year-old has ceded goal-line duties to Antonio Gibson though, so Barber's fantasy upside has essentially vanished.

Barber rushed eight times for 28 yards during Sunday's 20-9 win over the Bengals.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old had all but one of his carries during the second half, as Washington took control of the game and bled the clock. It's the second time since the season opener Barber has registered at least five carries, and he's been inefficient all season with a 2.4 YPC. He'll continue to have a minor offensive role while Antonio Gibson remains healthy.

Barber logged seven rushing yards on two carries, adding a seven-yard catch during Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Lions.

EDGE Analysis

Barber logged his second start of the 2020 campaign, but he faded into the No. 3 running back role as the game progressed. Antonio Gibson and J.D. McKissic split the RB carries 13-8 ahead of Barber, collecting 51 combined rushing yards and three rushing TDs in addition to 63 total receiving yards, spurred largely by McKissic's dense pass-catching workload of 15 targets. Barber garnered 10 carries Week 7 against the Cowboys, but he otherwise has not exceeded four carries in a game since the season opener against Philadelphia. Barber's involvement in the offense is expected to remain sparse when Washington takes on Cincinnati in Week 11.
