"The Washington Commanders are reeling from the loss of defensive end Deatrich Wise Jr. to a season-ending injury. General manager Adam Peters is not one to sit on his hands, and a notable development before preparations for Week 3 begin indicates more moves could be coming. Having so many troubling injuries this early in the campaign is far from ideal. In addition to Wise, running back Austin Ekeler is also out for the year."
"Noah Brown and John Bates will likely miss this weekend's test against the Las Vegas Raiders, and superstar quarterback Jayden Daniels' status is also in question after sustaining a sprained knee on Thursday Night Football. Peters made several transactions in recent days. He's left the defensive edges alone for now, which indicates a level of confidence in those around to fill the void. However, that doesn't mean the front office leader is going to settle by any stretch of the imagination."
Washington lost defensive end Deatrich Wise Jr. to a season-ending injury, and other key players — running back Austin Ekeler, wideout Noah Brown, tight end John Bates — face extended absences while quarterback Jayden Daniels' status is uncertain after a sprained knee. General manager Adam Peters has executed multiple recent transactions and is actively pursuing veteran reinforcements rather than relying solely on current depth. The Commanders worked out Preston Smith, a former Washington second-round pick with 24.5 sacks in four seasons and later stints with Green Bay and Pittsburgh. Washington prefers experienced additions, and Peters explored but did not pursue every available veteran option.
