The Facts:
The Redskins released their Week 1 depth chart Monday, which showed Josh Morgan ascending to the starting WR position opposite Pierre Garcon after he was listed as a backup for all of the preseason. At running back, Evan Royster is listed first with Roy Helu second, followed by rookie Alfred Morris.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Redskins signed both Garcon and Morgan within the first hour of the free agency period in March. Garcon has been entrenched as a starter since offseason practices began. Morgan spent part of the offseason recovering from the leg injury that ended his 2011 season. Even once fully healthy, he rotated in and out with Leonard Hankerson at the Z-receiver spot. Hankerson was announced as the starter at that position for the first three preseason games, but Morgan started there for last Wednesday’s preseason finale. ... Meanwhile, Royster said he didn’t know if he would start Sunday against the New Orleans Saints, however. Morris said the same. “I think they’re going to keep us pretty much in the dark until probably the day before the game,” Royster said. That comes as no surprise to Fantasy owners. Stay tuned.
