The Washington Commanders returned to the practice field Wednesday in preparation for their Week 9 rematch against the New York Giants. The Commanders defeated the Giants 21-18 back in Week 2.
Rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, who missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday last week, was limited. Daniels played in Sunday’s win over the Chicago Bears, throwing the Hail Mary to stun Chicago, which has the NFL world still buzzing.
The most concerning injury for Washington is left tackle Cornelius Lucas. Lucas injured his ankle in the second half of Sunday’s game. The good news is that his co-starter at left tackle, Brandon Coleman, practiced on a limited basis as he attempts to return from a concussion.
