Quarterback
Aaron Rodgers: Through six weeks, Rodgers has not finished higher than QB12 in any week for fantasy.
Rodgers has not cleared 255 passing yards in any game this season while he currently sits 25th in EPA per dropback (-0.07) and 22nd in yards per pass attempt (6.7 Y/A).
The past two weeks, Rodgers has been pressured on 31.7% and 33.3% of his dropbacks. Under pressure, Rodgers has seen his completion rate drop -23.5% versus when kept clean (22nd among passers) while losing -1.3 yards per attempt (19th).
Washington is second in the NFL in pressure rate (40.7%) and leads the league in rate of dropbacks with a hit on the quarterback (24.0%).
That said, Washington is a pass defense that has allowed fantasy production to at least keep Rodgers a high-end QB2 with upside for his best game of the year if Green Bay can protect him here. Washington is allowing 7.7 yards per pass attempt (27th), a league-high 13.3 yards per completion, and a 6.3% touchdown rate (31st).
