Commanders lose DBs Jeremy Reaves and Christian Holmes for the game vs. Bears

The Washington Commanders couldn’t have had a worse start to Week 5. The Chicago Bears jumped out to a 27-3 lead against the Commanders on Thursday Night Football.

Chicago wide receiver D.J. Moore burned Washington’s secondary for five receptions, 137 yards, and two touchdowns early.

Now, the Commanders will be without two members of their struggling secondary. Safety Jeremy Reaves and cornerback Christian Holmes are both ruled out for the remainder of the game.

Both players are backups on defense but key special-teams performers. Reaves is a captain and was a first-team All-Pro selection last season.

Reaves has a knee injury, while Holmes is dealing with a hamstring injury.

The Commanders haven’t offered any updates on Reaves or Holmes since they were ruled out.
