2024 Fantasy Outlook
Gibson is one of the NFL's most athletic running backs in terms of size/speed and also a good pass catcher, but in Washington he was pushed aside to make room for Brian Robinson despite Robinson offering nothing in particular besides bulk. Gibson also has his flaws, including a history of fumbling (four in 2023 and six in 2021) and questionable instincts/vision that testify to his history as a converted college wide receiver. The Patriots seemingly have major expectations, having signed Gibson to a three-year, $12 million contract that includes $5.3 million guaranteed. That makes him one of the highest-paid backup RBs in the league, though incumbent starter Rhamondre Stevenson is quite simply a more rugged and consistent runner. While the Patriots likely intend for Gibson to get most of his playing time on passing downs, his 220-pound frame and track record serving as a lead runner suggest he could end up quite busy if Stevenson misses time.

Leads backfield in Week 18 win
Gibson carried the ball 12 times for 41 yards and caught four of six targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Bills.
ANALYSIS
With Rhamondre Stevenson getting the day off in a meaningless game for both sides, Gibson led the Patriots' backfield and topped 60 scrimmage yards for the second straight week. The former Washington RB capably filled a backup role for New England in 2024, finishing the season with 744 combined yards over 17 appearances. Stevenson is under contract through 2028 while Gibson has two more years left on his deal, but a new coaching staff might have different ideas about the workload split between them next season after head coach Jerod Mayo and offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt were let go immediately after Sunday's contest.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
2020
Gibson probably isn't a natural running back as much as an exceptional athlete who happens to play running back. Washington held this against the 2020 third-round pick last season, handing the starting job to Brian Robinson despite the lesser results the rookie provided. New offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy might not place the same level of emphasis on aesthetic and 'looking like' a running back that since-fired Scott Turner did, but even if Bieniemy is more receptive to Gibson, the former Memphis product faces a new threat from sixth-round pick Chris Rodriguez. Unlike Robinson at Alabama, Rodriguez played early and raked as a high-volume, high-efficiency runner at Kentucky. Gibson is no slouch as a runner – he ran for 1,832 yards and 18 TDs at a clip of 4.3 YPC in 30 games his first two seasons – but he might need to do more of his damage as a passing-down and hurry-up back now. Bieniemy could have a Pacheco/McKinnon sort of specialization split in mind for the Washington backfield.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
May get another start in London
Gibson could be trending toward another start Sunday against the Jaguars, as Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports that Rhamondre Stevenson didn't practice Wednesday due to a foot injury.
ANALYSIS
Gibson handled 16 touches in Stevenson's absence against the Texans in Week 6, but that substantial workload netted only 43 scrimmage yards in a blowout loss. If Stevenson sits again Week 7, Gibson would likely find more success in London against a Jaguars defense that's surrendering 29.7 points per game.
