Case Keenum Fantasy

Washington Redskins interim head coach Bill Callahan said that quarterback Case Keenum (concussion) remains in the concussion protocol, but it's still possible that he plays in Week 9 against the Bills if he feels better on Friday. Keenum has been taking third-team repetitions at practice behind rookie Dwayne Haskins and Colt McCoy. It's more of a long shot that he'll play at this point, which would put Haskins in line to make his first career start. It would be bad timing, as he's looked really bad in limited duty so far this year, and Buffalo's defense is one of the scariest in the league. Either way, fantasy owners would have to be desperate to use Washington's starting QB this weekend, even in two-quarterback formats.

Washington Redskins interim head coach Bill Callahan said that quarterback Case Keenum (concussion) will be the starter in Week 9 against the Bills if he's healthy. If he can't get cleared from the league's concussion protocol after suffering a head injury Thursday night, rookie Dwayne Haskins would get the start. The good news is that Keenum will have extra time to get over his head injury, but a date with Buffalo's strong defense on the road won't be good for whoever starts for the 'Skins next week. Keenum gives the Redskins the best chance to win in the short term, and Haskins has looked very overmatched in his little action so far in his rookie season. Washington's offense remains one of the worst in the NFL no matter who is under center.

Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum (concussion) suffered a concussion on Thursday night against the Vikings and has been ruled out for the second half. The journeyman quarterback was 12-for-16 for 130 yards without a touchdown or interception, but he did lose a fumble before leaving. He wasn't terrible, but he predictably wasn't great either against a strong Vikings Defense. Keenum will have extra time to clear the protocol before the Week 9 game, but there's still a chance the 'Skins go back to rookie Dwayne Haskins. Haskins will get the rest of the second half to try to lead the team to a comeback on the road.
