Injury updates
The Washington Commanders were inside the practice bubble yesterday due to wind and a planned “jog-through”, and the team is dealing with a lot of injuries in the final stretch of the season. They were back outside today, and held a full practice with a few more players on the fields today.
Six players were given veteran rest days, with two of them keeping their injury designations today. Terry McLaurin was listed with an ankle injury last week, but was a full participant on Friday. He was a full participant today, and should be ready to play on Sunday. Clelin Ferrell has been dealing with a knee injury since training camp, and has been listed every week along with weekly rest days.
Another six players didn’t practice today, one was limited, and RB Austin Ekeler was a full participant on the first day of his 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve(concussion).
Washington had several players go down against the Falcons, including two offensive linemen. Tyler Biadasz left with an ankle injury and Cornelius Lucas suffered a groin injury. Both players remain out today, and it’s looking more likely that they won’t be able to play against the Cowboys. Lucas was already playing right tackle for Andrew Wylie(groin), who improved to limited practice.
Marshon Lattimore continues to miss practice after aggravating his hamstring injury against the Eagles two weeks ago. S Tyler Owens(ankle) and LB Jordan Magee(hamstring) both missed last week’s game, but Magee has been limited while Owens continues to miss time. WR Dyami Brown hasn’t had limited practice since injuring his hamstring against the Eagles, but that changed today. Olamide Zaccheaus and Jamison Crowder have had to step up in the about of Dyami and Noah Brown(on IR with kidney injury), and K.J. Osborn was active for the first time vs the Falcons.
