- The 49ers host the Commanders at 8:15 p.m. ET to close Week 6, listed as 7.5-point favorites with the over/under at 52.
- Christian McCaffrey anchors McClure's top DFS picks, averaging 16 touches per game this season with five rushing touchdowns over the past four weeks.
- Chig Okonkwo, the Commanders tight end signed as a 2026 free agent, returned healthy after missing Weeks 2-3 and posted four catches for 60 yards against the Giants in Week 5.
- Jacory Croskey-Merritt was ruled out over the weekend and placed on injured reserve Monday with a groin injury, thinning Washington's backfield.
- Jayden Daniels and the Commanders face the NFL's fourth-ranked defense in total yardage and scoring, with Mike Evans (Achilles, ribs) and Stefon Diggs (hamstring) both carrying questionable tags among DFS-relevant players.
Why it matters: Croskey-Merritt's IR move further depletes Washington's backfield heading into a road test against the league's fourth-ranked scoring defense, tilting DFS value toward McCaffrey and 49ers stacks while limiting the ceiling of Daniels-dependent lineups at a 52-point total.
