Commanders RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. He's unlikely to be cleared in time for this weekend's game vs. the Titans. RB Brian Robinson (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday, though, giving him a chance to play on Sunday. We'll keep you updated on this backfield over the next few days. RBs Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez would handle backfield duties if Ekeler and Robinson are out.

The Commanders placed K Austin Seibert (hamstring) on IR. Seibert returned from a two-game absence last week and missed two XPs and one FG in Washington's loss to the Cowboys. The team will likely turn back to K Zane Gonzalez, who made all three of his FGs and all four of his XPs in those two games Seibert missed.

Commanders WR Terry McLaurin racked up 102 yards and a TD on 5 receptions in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. Most of that came on a single play late in the fourth quarter, though. McLaurin caught a pass with 33 seconds left and took it to the end zone from 86 yards out. That means his other 4 catches totaled just 16 yards.

Commanders WR Noah Brown drew a team-high 10 targets in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. He caught six for 71 yards, setting personal season highs in all three categories.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels was on his way to a poor fantasy outing through most of Sunday's loss to the Cowboys, but turned it around in the fourth quarter. He wound up with 275 yards and 2 TDs passing, plus 74 yards and another TD on the ground.

Commanders RB Austin Ekeler sustained an apparent concussion on a kick return with less than 15 seconds to go in Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. He appeared to be unconscious on the field but eventually made his way off with assistance. This would be Ekeler's third documented concussion.

Update: HC Dan Quinn confirmed that Ekeler is in concussion protocol.

Commanders RB Brian Robinson injured his right leg on his first carry of Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. He got rolled up on badly but was able to hobble off the field under his own power. We'll update his status when we learn more.

Update: Robinson is officially questionable to return with an ankle injury.

Update: Robinson returned on Washington's next possession.

Update: Robinson was deemed questionable to return at halftime.

Commanders K Austin Seibert (hip) has been removed from the injury report and will play vs. the Cowboys on Sunday. Seibert still leads all kickers in fantasy points per game in most scoring systems. He's a strong Week 12 start with Washington rocking a 27.75-point implied total.

Commanders K Austin Seibert (hip) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Cowboys. He was a full-go in Friday’s practice, so we’re expecting him to play. Seibert is a nice fantasy option with Washington sporting a 27.75-point implied total.

Commanders WR Terry McLaurin caught just one pass for 10 yards in Thursday night's loss to the Eagles. He was invisible for most of the night, drawing just two targets on 32 Jayden Daniels pass attempts. The first fell incomplete on a crosser in the third quarter. McLaurin finally got on the board with a 10-yard grab in the fourth quarter.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels totaled just 191 passing yards with one TD and one INT in Thursday night's loss to the Eagles. He ran seven times for 18 yards. A red-hot Philadelphia defense got consistent pressure on Daniels and erased WR Terry McLaurin. In fact, Commanders WRs combined for just four catches and 28 yards. (Daniels completed 10 passes to RBs and eight to TEs.) Washington also struggled on third downs, converting only three of 12 chances. Daniels' TD went to TE Zach Ertz from five yards out with less than a minute to go.

Commanders K Austin Seibert (hip) is out for Thursday night's game vs. the Eagles. Zane Gonzalez will kick for Washington again. He nailed both of his FGs and all three XPs last week but is a middling Week 11 fantasy option with the Commanders 3.5-point underdogs to Philadelphia.

Commanders RB Brian Robinson (hamstring) is not listed on the final Week 11 injury report. He was upgraded to full participation in Wednesday's practice after being limited on Tuesday. Robinson figures to step back in as Washington's lead early-down back vs. the Eagles on Thursday night. It's a tough spot, though, with the Commanders 3.5-point underdogs against the league's second-ranked RB defense.

Commanders K Austin Seibert (hip) remained sidelined for Tuesday's practice. He's not looking like a good bet to kick vs. the Eagles on Thursday night. Make sure you have an alternative lined up if your waivers run tonight. K Zane Gonzalez made both of his FGs and all three XPs filling in for Seibert last week.

Commanders RB Brian Robinson (hamstring) got in a limited practice on Tuesday. He said afterward that he believes he has a "great chance" to play vs. the Eagles on Thursday night. We'll see how he's listed on the final injury report tomorrow. With the Commanders 3.5-point underdogs, Robinson will be just a RB3 if he ends up playing.

Commanders WR Terry McLaurin caught five of six targets for 113 yards. He was third in targets behind Noah Brown and Zach Ertz, but was the major downfield target for QB Jayden Daniels.

Commanders RB Austin Ekeler ran 13 times for 44 yards and two TDs. He also caught a pass for seven yards. Ekeler was the lead back with Brian Robinson sidelined with a hamstring injury.

49ers WR Deebo Samuel (rib, oblique) is active for today’s game vs. the Bucs. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable, but we haven’t heard anything to suggest that Samuel won’t be a full-go today.

49ers WR Deebo Samuel (rib, oblique) is expected to play vs. the Buccaneers today, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Samuel was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable. But, barring a report on his snaps being limited today, Samuel belongs locked into Week 10 fantasy lineups.

Commanders K Austin Seibert (hip) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game vs. the Steelers. He'll be replaced by K Zane Gonzalez, who isn't a recommended fantasy play in the third-worst kicker matchup of the week.
