Commanders' Marshon Lattimore: Won't play Week 13
Rotowire
Lattimore (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
Although Lattimore was able to practice in a limited capacity all week, he will be sidelined for a fifth straight game due to a hamstring injury. The veteran corner was traded by the Saints to the Commanders on Nov. 5, but he has not been able to suit up for his new team. With Washington on a bye for Week 14, Lattimore will look to take advantage of the extra rest and make his Commanders debut in Week 15 against the Saints on Sunday, Dec. 15.

Emmanuel Forbes: Let loose by Washington
Rotowire
Forbes was waived by the Commanders on Friday.
Forbes was a first-round pick by Washington in 2023 and played in 14 games as a rookie, tallying 38 tackles (35 solo) and 11 pass defenses, including an interception. He started six contests last season but has logged just one start in 2024 and has missed five games -- two due to a thumb injury and three as a healthy inactive. In his final game for Washington, which took place Week 10 versus Pittsburgh, Forbes logged just two defensive snaps. With his time in Washington done, the Mississippi State product will likely look for a fresh start with a new organization.

Commanders' Marshon Lattimore: Not expected to play Sunday
Rotowire
Lattimore (hamstring) is doubtful to suit up in Sunday's Week 13 clash against the Titans, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
Lattimore was acquired by Washington in a Nov. 5 trade, but he has yet to make his debut with his new team. The veteran cornerback did manage a trio of limited practices this week, so he at least appears to be moving closer to playing. The Commanders are on bye next week, so if Lattimore does indeed sit out against Tennessee, his next chance to play will be Sunday, Dec. 15 in New Orleans.
