Johnathan Hankins did not practice for a personal reason. Additionally, Rico Dowdle was listed as questionable for tomorrow’s game.

As for more positive news, CeeDee Lamb, KaVontae Turpin, Terence Steele, and Osa Odighizuwa do not carry an injury designation.

For the Commanders, first-round pick cornerback Emmanuel Forbes has been ruled out after not practicing this week. Running back Antonio Gibson is listed as a questionable. Should Gibson play, it would give the Commanders a lift on kick returns and a pass catcher out of the backfield.
