Redskins RB Chris Thompson doubtful with a back injury

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson is officially listed as doubtful for Week 7. He has emerged as a viable PPR option but is dealing with a back injury. He has not ruled out, however, it appears very unlikely he'll play this week.

Fantasy Analysis:

This is a non-factor in standard league but could sting in PPR leagues. He's only carried the ball 19 times this season, nonetheless, he has 23 receptions. The biggest beneficiary will be Matt Jones, who is officially listed as probable with a toe injury. If you were banking on Thompson in your PPR league, Dexter McCluster could be a nice add and plug-in this week.
