Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn spoke to the media after today’s practice and made several announcements. Former Eagles TE Zach Ertz will be a team captain for his return to Philadelphia. RB Jeremy McNichols and rookie CB Mike Sainristil will serve as Washington’s other two captains for a critical primetime division game.
The Commanders have a big list of injuries on a short week, and three players have already been ruled out for Thursday night’s game. Kicker Austin Seibert(hip), LB Nick Bellore(knee), and CB Marshon Lattimore(hamstring) have all been ruled out. None of them practiced this week, and they were all expected to miss the Eagles game.
