It was a disastrous Thursday Night Football clash in more ways than one for the Washington Commanders. They were heavily beaten by the Green Bay Packers. They also suffered some concerning injury issues that could impact their chances of mounting another deep postseason push in 2025.
The most concerning of all centered on running back Austin Ekeler. He went down with a non-contact injury and immediately looked in severe pain. He got helped off the field, but it didn't look good. He was immediately ruled out with an Achilles injury, and insider reports suggested that it could be season-ending.
