Jonathan Allen

WAS Defensive Lineman #93

Commanders HC Dan Quinn said DT Jonathan Allen will undergo surgery to repair a torn pectoral muscle and will miss the rest of the season.

It was reported earlier that the team “feared” Allen would miss the remainder of the season, but Quinn later confirmed it on Monday. The loss of Allen, who is a long-time vet and leader of the defense, is a tough blow to the 4-2 Commanders. The Commanders currently rank 22nd in both yards and points allowed this season, the loss of Allen could only further their early struggles on that side of the ball.
Jonathan Allen

WAS Defensive Lineman #93

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports Commanders DT Jonathan Allen (pectoral) is “feared” to have suffered a pectoral injury that will be season-ending.

Allen is one of the Commanders’ best defensive players and he would be a devastating loss for their playoff hopes. Without him in the second half, the Ravens essentially did whatever they wanted, scoring points on every drive that didn’t end the game. Allen had 13 solo tackles and two sacks in six starts so far this season.
Noah Brown

WAS Wide Receiver #85

Noah Brown caught 4-of-8 passes for 58 yards in the Commanders Week 6 loss to the Ravens.

Browns’ eight targets led the Commanders, while his 58 yards set a new season-high. The veteran receiver hauled in a 28-yard reception in the third quarter on a drive that ended with an Austin Seibert field goal and was on the receiving end of a DPI that gave the Commanders 23 yards on a critical fourth down. The Commanders trailed for much of this one, and didn’t have a running game to lean on with Brian Robinson (knee) sidelined. We wouldn’t expect another eight-target game for Brown in Week 7 against the Panthers. He’ll be hard to trust as anything more than a deep league streamer.
Zach Ertz

WAS Tight End #86

Zach Ertz caught 4-of-5 passes for 68 yards in the Commanders’ Week 6 loss to the Ravens.

Ertz’s first pass went for a 21-yard gain, but the veteran tight end had more to offer in this one. In the second half, Ertz strung together catches of 11, 24, and 12 yards to help set up a much-needed touchdown pass to Terry McLaurin. It was just the second time this season that Ertz cracked the 40-yard mark, and his first time since Week 2. He’ll be a boom-or-bust TE2 in Week 7 against the Panthers.
Austin Ekeler

WAS Running Back #30

Austin Ekeler ran nine times for 21 yards in the Commanders’ Week 6 loss to the Ravens, adding four receptions for 47 additional yards.

Interestingly, Ekeler had catches of 24 and 25 yards in this one, but two additional catches for a loss, but his receiving total was below what it could have been. With Brian Robinson out, Ekeler operated as the Commanders’ RB1, handling nine rush attempts to Jeremy McNichols’ two. Ekeler will have high-end RB2 upside in Week 7 against the Panthers if Brian Robinson misses another game.
Terry McLaurin

WAS Wide Receiver #17

Terry McLaurin caught 6-of-7 targets for 53 yards and two touchdowns in the Commanders’ Week 6 loss to the Ravens.

Zach Ertz and Noah Brown outclassed McLaurin in the yardage department, but his two touchdowns helped keep the game within reach all day long, with his first coming on a leaping grab in the end zone before half-time. McLaurin’s second score, which came from six yards out, came on a critical fourth-and-goal that Washington needed to convert. Now sitting on four touchdowns this season, McLaurin has gone for 50-plus yards in his last four games as he continues to build is rapport with Jayden Daniels. He’ll profile as a high-end WR2 in Week 7 against the Panthers.
Jayden Daniels

WAS Quarterback #5

Jayden Daniels completed 24-of-35 passes for 269 yards and two touchdowns in the Commanders’ 30-23, Week 6 loss to the Ravens.

Daniels got off to a slow start early but did connect with Terry McLaurin on a two-yard touchdown late in the second quarter. Playing catch-up for much of the afternoon, Daniels let it rip in the second half, throwing for 138/1 in the final two quarters with three of his passes going for 20-plus yards. Daniels managed only 22 yards on the ground, but still delivered another solid fantasy day for his managers. He’ll have a much easier matchup in Week 7 when the Commanders play host to the Panthers.
Jonathan Allen

WAS Defensive Lineman #93

Commanders DT Jonathan Allen was ruled out for the remainder of Week 6’s game against the Ravens with a pectoral injury.

Allen exited in the second half of Sunday’s game and was ruled out early in the fourth quarter. The veteran lineman has been a key contributor along their interior since entering the league in 2017, and has totaled 13 tackles and two sacks this season.
Brian Robinson Jr.

WAS Running Back #8

Commanders declared RB Brian Robinson Jr., CB Emmanuel Forbes Jr., QB Jeff Driskel, S Tyler Owens, LB Dominique Hampton, DE Jamin Davis, and OG Chris Paul inactive for Week 6 against the Commanders.

Forbes is a surprise here, given that he was a full participant in practice all week and wasn’t listed on the injury report heading into the weekend. It would seem he’s a healthy scratch after playing in Week 5 against the Browns. Robinson, who was downgraded to out on Saturday, will miss his first game of the season, leaving Austin Ekeler and Jeremy McNichols to handle backfield duties.
Brian Robinson Jr.

WAS Running Back #8

Commanders downgraded RB Brian Robinson (knee) to out for Week 6 against the Ravens.

Robinson faced an uphill battle after injuring his knee just before halftime in Week 5 and will now miss the team’s Week 6 showdown with the high-flying Ravens. It remains to be seen if Austin Ekeler will see a significant uptick in snaps and opportunities in his absence, but the team has shown a propensity to trust Jeremy McNichols with early-down work.
