The Washington Commanders‘ injury situation took another turn for the worse in Sunday’s win over the Las Vegas Raiders. In Week 2, Washington lost defensive end Deatrich Wise and running back Austin Ekeler for the season. Cornerback Jonathan Jones landed on injured reserve, and quarterback Jayden Daniels, tight end John Bates and wide receiver all missed the Week 3 win.

On Sunday, the Commanders saw starting safety Will Harris suffer a fractured fibula. Also, at different points in the game, cornerbacks Trey Amos and Marshon Lattimore, and wide receiver Terry McLaurin departed with injuries. None returned.

After the game, it was unclear the severity of those injuries because Washington was so far ahead of the Raiders that it made no sense for the injured players to re-enter the game after being checked out by medical. On Monday, head coach Dan Quinn met with the media and had one positive update: Lattimore cleared concussion protocol.

“So, on the plus side from the injury side, Marshon Lattimore has cleared from the concussion protocol,” Quinn said. That means Lattimore is free to return to practice on Wednesday.

As far as the other injuries, Quinn was under no incentive to provide any updates on Monday.

“I’m sure there’s a lot of questions regarding injuries and updates that on Wednesday. I’ll be better qualified to fill you in on where we’re at in the assessments from there. But I am more than pumped to talk about the game and what’s ahead.”

Essentially, Quinn said we’ll have to wait for the week’s first injury report. The Commanders face the Atlanta Falcons on the road in Week 4. It will be Quinn’s first game back in Atlanta since he was fired as head coach early in the 2020 season. Washington defeated Atlanta last season, but the game was in Landover.

Quinn did offer somewhat of an update on Daniels, calling him “day to day.” If Daniels sits out another week, Marcus Mariota gets a second start. Mariota also has an interesting history with the Falcons.
