Austin Ekeler Factor in Commanders Backfield Dynamic for Week 5

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler adds competition to the team's backfield mix following the return of Rachaad White to a limited practice on Wednesday. Ekeler joined the rotation ahead of last week's contest while White was sidelined with a shoulder injury, creating a crowded and complex backfield committee alongside Jacory Croskey-Merritt for Week 5 against the Giants.
