Carolina Panthers veteran linebacker Thomas Davis returns against Washington after serving a four game suspension for violating the league’s performance-enhancing drug policy. A leader on the field and inside the locker room, his presence should aid in helping to strengthen the Panthers defensive performance.
On offense, tight end Greg Olsen has been sidelined with a foot injury but may return this week. Officially listed as questionable, after participating in practice for a majority of the week, he is expected to play despite being officially a game time decision.
Washington is 2-2 and looking to rebound from an embarrassing performance last Monday night against the New Orleans Saints.
