"It's been one blow after another. Last week, it was veteran cornerback Marshon Lattimore's torn ACL versus the Seattle Seahawks. This week, it's rookie second-rounder Trey Amos, who's been arguably the most consistent performer in Washington's secondary this season. Commanders got bad news around rookie cornerback Trey Amos' injury Amos went out relatively early against the Lions and didn't return. The concerns were immediate, and given how things have gone for the Commanders this season, fans were bracing for more bad news."
"Quinn duly obliged. He confirmed that the former Ole Miss standout suffered a fractured fibula and will be out for a while. Much will depend on the fracture's severity, but there's a chance that the Commanders will be without the No. 61 overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft for the rest of the campaign. This leaves the Commanders' cornerback options as threadbare at best."
Dan Quinn has assumed defensive play-calling duties after another Washington Commanders collapse in Week 10. The team faces crippling injuries that have undermined a defense already lacking elite talent. Rookie cornerback Trey Amos suffered a fractured fibula and will miss significant time, compounding Marshon Lattimore's torn ACL. Cornerback depth is now thin, with Mike Sainristil, Jonathan Jones, and Noah Igbinoghene the primary starters and Antonio Hamilton Sr. the only other rostered corner. Tre Hawkins III, Darius Rush, or undrafted rookie Car'lin Vigers could be elevated from the practice squad. Opponents are likely to target Washington's depleted secondary.
