Injury updates
The Washington Commanders are on a short week as they prepare to host the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football. The team held a light practice yesterday, and a quiet one today. Washington only has one player listed with an injury designation. Rookie RB Chris Rodriguez missed the Eagles game due to illness, and will be questionable for tomorrow’s game against the Chicago Bears. Derrick Gore was elevated from the practice squad last week, and he could get the call again this week if Gonzalez misses another game.
WRs Curtis Samuel and Jahan Dotson were both on this week’s report, but both have been cleared to play on Thursday Night Football. Samuel was limited today, while Dotson was a full participant. Both receivers had touchdowns in last week’s overtime loss to Philadelphia.
