Washington Football Team's COVID-19 list grows to 18 players with 8 more additions Wednesday

ASHBURN, Va. -- The Washington Football Team, already impacted by injuries, continues to add players to the reserve/COVID-19 list at a time when it can least afford to lose players.

Washington has placed 14 players on the COVID list this week -- including eight on Wednesday -- bringing its total to 18 as it prepares to play the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Both teams are 6-7, with Washington owning the seventh and final playoff spot with four games remaining. Coach Ron Rivera said he has not heard any discussions about possibly canceling the game.
