The (3-2) Washington Commanders host the (2-2) Chicago Bears at Northwest Stadium for Week 6 of the regular season on Monday Night Football. Injuries continue to pile up on the receiving corps, with their top three receivers dealing with injuries. Noah Brown will miss his fourth straight game with a groin/knee injury after being limited the first two days of practice and sitting out the third.
Washington Commanders’ No. 1 WR has not played since Week 3
Terry McLaurin suffered a quad injury in the third quarter of Week 3 against the Las Vegas Raiders and did not return for the remainder of the game. After seeking multiple medical opinions, the No. 1 receiver avoided surgery and wasn’t placed on injured reserve. Since then, McLaurin has missed the last two weeks of practice and games.

Terry McLaurin did not practice for the third consecutive week, a concerning development regarding his availability for Monday Night Football. As a result, the Commanders have already ruled out the two-time Pro Bowler against the Chicago Bears. This will be the third straight game McLaurin has missed, leaving many questioning why he wasn’t placed on injured reserve.

Will their All-Pro acquisition play?
Deebo Samuel Sr. has been dealing with a bruised heel since Week 4, but has managed to play through the injury. The All-Pro did not practice on Thursday and Saturday and is considered a game-time decision. If Samuel cannot go, the Commanders will have to count on Luke McCaffrey, Chris Moore, Jaylin Lane, with Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown already out.
