The Commanders are weighing Austin Ekeler’s return while Terry McLaurin is cleared for the game against the Cowboys
Washington: So, the Commanders are in a bit of a pickle with their roster. Coach Dan Quinn said they’re still deciding on Austin Ekeler’s status. He’s been practicing all week, but they’ve listed him as questionable for the game.
Ekeler had a rough time earlier this season with concussions, which is why he ended up on injured reserve. But it sounds like he might be ready to jump back in.
On the flip side, some players are definitely out. Marshon Lattimore, Tyler Owens, and Jordan Magee won’t be playing. Plus, Tyler Biadasz and Cornelius Lucas are doubtful, which isn’t great news for the team.
There are a couple of other players in limbo too. K.J. Osborn is dealing with an illness, and long snapper Tyler Ott is away for personal reasons. He’s attending a funeral, so he’ll head to Dallas separately.
But hey, it’s not all bad news! Dyami Brown, Clelin Ferrell, Andrew Wylie, and Terry McLaurin are all off the injury report and ready to go. McLaurin missed practice earlier in the week but bounced back strong.
