  • Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Likely done for season

    Lane was diagnosed with a fracture and dislocation of his left ankle after undergoing tests Monday and is expected to miss the remainder of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    The second-year receiver out of Virginia Tech has been limited to 18 catches for 250 yards and no touchdowns on 34 targets over 19 career games, but he's been one of the NFL's better punt returners since entering the league (13.3 yards per return, two scores).

  • Commanders' Drew Stevens: Makes two FGAs in Week 4

    Stevens made both of his field-goal attempts and converted his only PAT during Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Colts.

    Stevens made multiple field goals for the second third straight week, converting attempts from 31 and 29 yards in the first quarter versus Indianapolis. The kicker has now gone 7-for-9 on field-goal tries, including 2-for-4 from 50-plus yards, over the first four regular-season games of his career.

  • Commanders' Treylon Burks: Produces long TD in London loss

    Burks caught one of three targets for a 47-yard touchdown in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Colts.

    With Terry McLaurin (hamstring) inactive, Burks saw increased snaps in the Commanders' wideout rotation that also involved Stefon Diggs, Dyami Brown and rookie Antonio Williams. Burks saw the fewest targets of the four and made the most of his one grab, breaking off a 47-yard score in the third quarter. If McLaurin continues to miss time, Burks should see rotational playing time at wideout, but he's not currently a playable fantasy option.

  • Commanders' Antonio Williams: Quiet day in London

    Williams caught three of eight targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Colts.

    With Terry McLaurin (hamstring) inactive, Williams finished second to Stefon Diggs in targets, but the rookie wideout wasn't able to do much with the volume as Athan Kaliakmanis ended up having to make his NFL debut in relief of Marcus Mariota (knee) at quarterback. Williams has produced a 12-124-1 line on 19 targets through his first four games, and he'll be a volatile option in Week 5 against the Giants depending on whether Jayden Daniels (elbow) and McLaurin are able to return.

  • Commanders' Stefon Diggs: Team-high five grabs in Week 4 loss

    Diggs caught five of nine targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Colts.

    While the targets and receptions led the Commanders on the day, Diggs finished just fourth in receiving yards on the team as his longest gain went for only 10 yards. The veteran wideout's ability to deliver a big play was impacted by the loss of Marcus Mariota (knee) in the first quarter, leaving the offense in the hands of seventh-round rookie Athan Kaliakmanis. Diggs could be the No. 1 receiver again in Week 5 against the Giants if Terry McLaurin (hamstring) remains sidelined, but Diggs' ceiling could be limited if Jayden Daniels (elbow) isn't cleared to return.

  • Commanders' Jacory Croskey-Merritt: Held in check by Indy

    Croskey-Merritt carried the ball nine times for a season-low 15 yards and caught two of four targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Colts.

    The Commanders' running game struggled to get anything going against an Indy front seven led by DeForest Buckner, especially once Marcus Mariota (knee) was replaced under center by seventh-round rookie Athan Kaliakmanis, but Croskey-Merritt was able to salvage his production to some extent with a 35-yard catch and run on a screen pass in the first quarter that helped set up a field goal. His 11 touches led the Washington backfield, while Austin Ekeler saw five in his season debut and rookie Kaytron Allen got three, but that division of labor came with Rachaad White (shoulder) on the shelf. Croskey-Merritt's ability to improve on his numbers could depend on whether Jayden Daniels (elbow) can return at quarterback for Washington in a Week 5 home game against the Giants.

  • Commanders' Athan Kaliakmanis: Sees first NFL action in Week 4 loss

    Kaliakmanis completed 15 of 33 passes for 186 yards and a touchdown with an interception in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Colts. He added 16 yards on three carries.

    The 2026 seventh-round pick out of Rutgers began the game as the backup to Marcus Mariota with Jayden Daniels (elbow) still out, but Kaliakmanis quickly got pressed into duty for his first NFL action when Mariota injured his knee on a sack in the first quarter and was unable to return. Kaliakmanis didn't play too badly under the circumstances and took some shots down the field, one of which went for a 47-yard touchdown to Treylon Burks in the third quarter, but his inexperience showed as the deficit grew. Daniels is aiming to return to the lineup in Week 5 at home against the Giants, but Kaliakmanis could find himself back in the No. 2 role depending on the severity of Mariota's injury -- and he might be in line for his first career NFL start if Daniels doesn't get cleared.

  • Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Aiming to return for Week 5

    Daniels (elbow) will be a full participant in practice for Week 5 prep with the aim to play against the Giants on Sunday, Oct. 11, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

    Daniels has missed the Commanders' last two games, including Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Colts in London, due to a dislocated left elbow that he sustained against the Cowboys in Week 2. It appears the third-year quarterback is trending toward playing in Week 5, and there is an added push to get Daniels back under center after Marcus Mariota aggravated a right knee injury during Sunday's game, resulting in rookie seventh-rounder Athan Kaliakmanis being inserted into the game.

  • Commanders' Terry McLaurin: 'Pushed to play' before being inactive

    Head coach Dan Quinn said McLaurin (hamstring) "pushed to play" before being deemed inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts in London, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

    The Commanders added McLaurin to their Week 4 injury report Friday due to a hamstring issue that left him questionable ahead of Sunday's contest. On Saturday, Ben Standig of The Team 980 Washington D.C. reported McLaurin was trending toward an absence, and indeed he was among the team's inactives Sunday. Considering Quinn's comments, McLaurin seemingly has a decent chance to return next Sunday versus the Giants.

  • Commanders' Charles Omenihu: Scheduled for imaging

    Omenihu, who suffered a groin injury during a loss to the Colts on Sunday, is slated to undergo imaging, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

    Omenihu was hurt late in the first quarter Sunday and didn't end up returning. He'll get tests done to determine the severity of his injury. The Commanders may turn to Shy Tuttle for more defensive snaps if Omenihu needs to miss additional time.

  • Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Suffers serious ankle injury

    Lane sustained a severe ankle injury during Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Colts, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

    The injury could cause Lane to stay overnight in London while undergoing more tests on his ankle. Given the initial diagnosis, it looks like the second-year pro won't play against the Giants in Week 5 and is likely facing a multi-week absence. Lane has primarily operated as a returner on special teams, and a prolonged absence would open the door to playing time for Luke McCaffrey (coach's decision).

  • Commanders' Marcus Mariota: Aggravates MCL injury in Week 4

    Mariota (knee), who was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Colts in London, is set to undergo further tests after suffering an aggravation of the right MCL sprain he initially sustained in the Commanders' second preseason game, Molly McGrath reported on the NFL Network broadcast.

    Mariota ultimately moved past the injury ahead of the start of the regular season, but he'll most likely have to miss time after experiencing another setback in Week 4. The 32-year-old made a second straight start in place of the injured Jayden Daniels (elbow), completing three of four pass attempts for 46 yards and carrying once for 35 yards before leaving the game midway through the first quarter. Athan Kaliakmanis took over under center following Mariota's departure, but Kaliakmanis could move back to the No. 2 role if Mariota ends up being sidelined for the Commanders' Week 5 game against the Giants. Daniels was a limited participant in practice throughout Week 4 and may be ready to take back starting duties in Week 5 if he isn't hindered by his dislocated left elbow.

  • Commanders' Tyler Owens: Leaves game with hamstring injury

    Owens (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts.

    Owens tweaked his hamstring during the second half of Sunday's game in London, and he's being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return. Percy Butler and Quan Martin are the only healthy safeties left for the Commanders due to the absences of Owens, Jeremy Reaves (finger, questionable) and Nick Cross (illness, inactive).

  • Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Ruled out for remainder of Week 4

    Lane (ankle) has been officially ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's matchup against the Colts in London, England, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

    Lane suffered an ankle injury during a kickoff return early in the third quarter and had to be carted off the field. He appeared unable to put any weight on his left leg and was ruled out from returning shortly thereafter. Dyami Brown handled Washington's next kickoff return and could take over in that role during Lane's absence.

  • Commanders' Jeremy Reaves: Exits game with finger injury

    Reaves (finger) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts.

    Reaves appeared to sustain the injury early in the third quarter, and he's being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Percy Butler is in line for more defensive snaps for as long as Reaves is sidelined.
