Commanders News: Sam Howell, Chase Young, Jacoby Brissett, and injuries
looking up the most recent rumors and news about Commanders in the media.
With only one day until the Washington Commanders’ Week 17 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, which news items are making the rounds?
With two games left in the 2023 season, the Washington Commanders are turning into a soap opera. What has happened recently is a terrible indictment of both stability and the purported culture that Ron Rivera developed in order to ensure a longer tenure.
among course, we have this weekend’s football game to worry about, but not even the most optimistic among the Commanders is feeling very hopeful. In the meanwhile, there are a number of articles gaining column inches that raise questions about Jacoby Brissett, Sam Howell’s readiness, Chase Young’s enthusiasm, and the team’s numerous absences for Week 17’s game against the San Francisco 49ers.
There are typically a lot of concerns about injuries during this time of year. The Washington Commanders are currently facing more than most, as many well-known players are out of tomorrow’s game against the San Francisco 49ers at FedEx Field.
Tyler Larsen, Charles Leno Jr., Percy Butler, Benjamin St-Juste, and Kendall Fuller will not play. This guarantees that cornerback Emmanuel Forbes, who had a lackluster rookie season up until this point, will get more playing time.
Additionally dubious is Andrew Wylie, which means the Commanders may be missing their two main edge protectors. In addition, starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who was added to the injury report on Friday quite late, has a hamstring problem that has to be taken into consideration.
All other players, including running back Brian Robinson Jr., are cleared to proceed.
