Nabs another interception Sunday
Forbes didn't make any tackles but picked off a pass Sunday in a 42-26 Week 10 win over the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
Forbes logged a 92 percent defensive snap share but didn't record any stops. However, he made an impact with a fourth-quarter interception of Mac Jones as San Francisco was attempting to make a comeback. The pickoff occurred in 49ers territory, and six plays later the Rams essentially put the game away with a touchdown to make the score 42-20. Forbes has notched an interception in two straight games after having no pickoffs across his first seven contests of the campaign.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Forbes is an unusual cornerback prospect in terms of both size (166 pounds at the 2023 Combine) and collegiate production (14 INTs returned for 390 yards and six TDs in three seasons). Running a 4.35 40 at the combine helped alleviate concerns about the size, and Washington bit with the 16th overall pick in April's draft. Forbes isn't likely to make a ton of tackles but could have value in IDP leagues that slant the scoring more toward takeaways, pass defenses and return touchdowns.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Getting fresh start
Forbes regularly worked with the starters during mandatory minicamp, John Keim of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Forbes had a disappointing rookie season in 2023, as he started only six games due to a combination of poor performance and injury. However, he'll get a fresh start with a new coaching staff, and he worked this offseason to gain more strength, allowing him to better match up with physical receivers within the division such as Philadelphia's A.J. Brown. The Commanders did add Michael Davis this offseason, who could challenge Forbes for a starting job at outside corner.
