The Washington Commanders are off to a strong 2-1 start, and they played their best game of the young season against the Las Vegas Raiders. But injuries have piled up.
The Commanders hit the road this weekend to face the Atlanta Falcons, and they'll be doing it without quarterback Jayden Daniels, wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown, and tight end John Bates. Running back Austin Ekeler is also out for the season with a torn Achilles.
Washington should still have an excellent opportunity to pull out the victory over a Falcons team that never even reached the 30-yard line last time out against the Carolina Panthers.
