Ron Rivera Presser: We need 11 guys doing one thing, not one guy trying to do all 11

Washington Commanders Head Coach Ron Rivera spoke to the media(video was not provided by the team) after today’s practice to talk about Sunday’s home game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Injuries are adding up, and the team ruled out two defensive linemen. DT Daniel Wise(high ankle sprain) and DE Casey Toohill(concussion) will both miss their first games this season and continue to test Washington’s DL depth. Rivera said the team will miss Toohill’s athleticism and range. DE James Smith-Williams is also questionable with an abdominal strain. Rivera talked about backup DE Shaka Toney’s quickness, athleticism, and ability to run down a QB.
