The Washington Commanders will be without the wide receiver duo of Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown for their Monday Night Football showdown against the Chicago Bears. And there could be another gut punch coming in the not-too-distant future.
Washington hasn't missed McLaurin and Brown as much as fans initially envisaged. Others have done an admirable job of filling the void, with recent acquisition Deebo Samuel Sr. leading the charge.
Adam Peters sent a fifth-round pick to the San Francisco 49ers for Samuel this offseason. It's proven to be an outstanding piece of business so far, but the former South Carolina standout has also been playing through the pain barrier.
