"Running back Austin Ekeler and defensive end Deatrich Wise Jr. both suffered season-ending injuries. Star quarterback Jayden Daniels was diagnosed with a knee sprain, with his status for this weekend's clash against the Las Vegas Raiders now in doubt. Tight end John Bates is likely to miss the game due to a groin injury. After lucking out with availability last season and experiencing very few concerns in Week 1, it's already next man up for the Commanders at multiple positions."
"In all of that, there was another injury that flew under the radar last week around wide receiver Noah Brown. The nine-year veteran hurt his groin against the Green Bay Packers, which is the latest in a long line of recent setbacks. After achieving Commanders' cult legend status with his game-winning Hail Mary touchdown catch against the Chicago Bears, Brown's 2024 season met a premature end when he suffered a kidney injury that required surgery against the Tennessee Titans."
Austin Ekeler and Deatrich Wise Jr. suffered season-ending injuries. Jayden Daniels was diagnosed with a knee sprain and his Week 3 status against the Las Vegas Raiders is uncertain. Tight end John Bates is likely to miss the game with a groin injury. Noah Brown sustained a groin injury after a history of recent setbacks including a kidney surgery in 2024 and a minicamp knee complication. Brown has caught three passes for 36 yards through two games and showed rust with notable drops, including a critical third-down drop versus the Packers. Luke McCaffrey and Jaylin Lane will audition for larger roles.
