Commanders vs. Falcons Week 6 injury report for Wednesday

The Washington Commanders returned to the practice field Wednesday for the first time since last Thursday’s ugly 40-20 loss to the Chicago Bears. The Commanders kicked off their preparations for the 3-2 Atlanta Falcons.

It’s been a tough week for injury news for the Commanders. On Monday, head coach Ron Rivera announced that starting safety Darrick Forrest and special-teams ace Jeremy Reaves were placed on injured reserve. Washington hopes Forrest’s injury keeps him on short-term IR, but a partially torn ACL could end Reaves’ season.

This led Washington to make multiple roster moves.

As the Commanders returned to the practice field Wednesday, two players missed practice: Tight end Curtis Hodges (illness) and cornerback Christian Holmes (hamstring).

Washington listed the following players as full participants:

  • LT Charles Leno Jr: Finger
  • DE Efe Obada: Knee
  • WR Curtis Samuel: Finger

As for the Falcons, who are coming off a last-second win over the Texans, only one player missed practice, veteran defensive lineman Calais Campbell. Campbell received a rest day.

Atlanta listed the following players as limited participants:

  • OLB Bud Dupree: Wrist
  • OT Kaleb McGary: Knee
  • TE Jonnu Smith: Ankle

Smith is Atlanta’s leading receiver so far in 2023.
