Team news: Washington Commanders | Page 10

Offensive tackle Brandon Coleman (shoulder), center Tyler Biadasz (ribs/thumb/foot), defensive end Clelin Ferrell (knee), offensive tackle Cornelius Lucas (ankle), offensive tackle Andrew Wylie (shoulder), and running back Brian Robinson (hamstring) are listed as limited.

Robinson has missed three of the last five games, including the last two. He's hoping to play on Thursday night in a division showdown against the Eagles but as of now it's looking like another game-time call. Hopefully we'll know more tomorrow as today was just an estimation.

Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) is out for Sunday vs. Pittsburgh.

This turns into a fantastic spot for Ekeler, who should be in consideration as an RB2 with pass-catching upside.

Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) is officially questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Giants.

This is a separate injury than Robinson (knee) was dealing with a couple of weeks ago, so this is unlikely just a flare-up. If BRob misses Week 9, consider Austin Ekeler a fringe RB2/3 with McNichols operating as a desperation flyer.

Deebo Samuel will be day-to-day with an injury to his ribs and an oblique strain, Kyle Shanahan said.

He’ll be re-evaluated after the bye, the post went on to say. Hopefully Samuel will be good to go for Week 10. Several 49ers are expected back at that point so the bye week is coming at a great time for the team. The Niners will be an early Sunday game at Tampa Bay in Week 10.

Commanders coach Dan Quinn told reporters that Jayden Daniels did wind up practicing today and "we really pushed it"

They'll evaluate his status over the next 48 hours, but could be determined on Sunday.

It's a good idea to have a backup plan for Week 8, as Daniels seems like he could go either way at this point. He's a start if he gets cleared in time.

John Lynch on KNBR said Jauan Jennings is doubtful with his groin injury this week.

If Deebo is good to go, we can assume the 49ers will be heavily targeting himself and Kittle this week in a good matchup. This makes both huge assets to fantasy squads, and rookie Ricky Pearsall is an interesting deep-league play in his second career game.

Still no Jayden Daniels. Has seemed like tomorrow will be the big day to see if the Commanders rookie QB can get some practice in before Sunday so we’ll see what’s up then.

Related Players: Marcus Mariota

Mariota wouldn't be worth a start in typical 1QB leagues if he goes, but he proved that the pass-catchers shouldn't be downgraded with his performance last week. We'll keep an eye on Daniels' status after tomorrow.

According to multiple reports, Deebo Samuel has been discharged from the hospital. Samuel left Sunday’s loss to the Chiefs with an illness and went to the hospital later that night.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Samuel had fluid in his lungs and described his condition as pneumonia. Shanahan said that the team will see how Samuel recovers over the coming days, but owners should probably have other plans in place, especially because the Niners are at home against the Cowboys on Sunday night.

The illness that sidelined Deebo Samuel yesterday is pneumonia. He's in the hospital.

When the team realized Deebo had fluid in his lungs, he was sent to the hospital, Lombardi said in another post. Another beat writer, Nick Wagoner, reported Samuel was struggling to breathe which is why he wasn't in the game very long. Aiyuk is out for the season so the Niners now find themselves very thin at the WR position. There is no timetable for Samuel's return at this point. Reports say the team should get Jennings (hip) back in Week 8, but rookies like Pearsall and Cowing could very well be factors in the short term until Samuel is able to return.

Sources: 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk suffered a season-ending knee injury on Sunday, tests confirmed.

Anyone who held on to Jennings should be in good shape as he will likely slide in as the team's WR2 behind Deebo. Jennings didn't play in Week 7 because of a hip injury but the team is hoping to have in back for Week 8, according to reports. Pearsall was active for the first time and caught three balls for 21 yards. Cowing had two catches for 50 yards. Both rookies could be options behind Samuel, Kittle and likely Jennings, but may not be consistent fantasy producers. We reported McCaffrey is looking to return on Nov. 10 and it's possible he's counted on as a receiver more than a rusher once he's back.
