"Terry McLaurin will be missing his fourth-straight game with a quad/hip injury. Quinn was optimistic about his chances of getting back into the fold to start the week, but that hope quickly diminished. This is becoming a significant problem, raising the question of why the former Ohio State standout wasn't placed on injured reserve. That was also the case with Noah Brown, who hasn't been seen since Week 2's loss to the Green Bay Packers."
"Concerns are also growing around Deebo Samuel Sr. The offseason trade acquisition from the San Francisco 49ers is currently dealing with a heel problem. He toughed it out last time out against the Chicago Bears, but he was not as impactful. The Commanders have erred on the side of caution with the wideout's practice participation this week, and he was officially listed as questionable before Washington's annual trip to Dallas."
"Samuel didn't give much away to the media after Friday's practice, aside from acknowledging that the heel complication is causing discomfort. But Tom Pelissero from the NFL Network revealed that the former South Carolina's status at AT&T Stadium is a legitimate touch-and-go situation. If Samuel cannot go, that would leave the Commanders with three healthy wideouts on their active roster - Luke McCaffrey, Chris Moore, and rookie fourth-rounder Jaylin Lane."
The Washington Commanders enter Week 7 against the Dallas Cowboys with multiple wide receiver injuries and lingering complications that threaten roster depth. Terry McLaurin will miss a fourth straight game with a quad/hip injury, prompting questions why he was not placed on injured reserve. Noah Brown has been absent since Week 2 and has been moved to injured reserve with uncertain future contributions. Deebo Samuel is managing a heel issue and was officially listed as questionable after limited practice participation. If Samuel cannot play, only three healthy wideouts remain on the active roster, prompting likely practice-squad elevations.
