Washington WR Curtis Samuel (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. It's a new injury for Samuel, who had been dealing with a groin issue since the spring. It's been a lost season for the man who signed a 3-year, $34.5 million deal in March.

Washington WR Terry McLaurin (concussion) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He's made some progress through the protocol and has a chance to be cleared for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. We'll get another update on his status tomorrow.

Washington on Thursday placed S Kamren Curl on the COVID list, leaving him likely to miss Sunday's game at Philadelphia. He's the 2nd member of the starting secondary to hit the COVID list this week, following CB Kendall Fuller. We'll see whether anyone else in the group goes with them.

Washington WR Terry McLaurin (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. He has a lot of work to do if he wants to clear the concussion protocol before Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. At this point, fantasy owners should not be counting on McLaurin in Week 15 lineups.

Washington CB Kendall Fuller landed on the COVID list Tuesday. It's not yet clear whether he tested positive, but multiple reports referred to myriad positive tests. Assume that you won't have Fuller available as a Week 15 IDP option.

Further testing revealed that Washington TE Logan Thomas tore the ACL and MCL in his left knee, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The team originally believed that Thomas only tore the MCL. We already knew he was out of the rest of this season, but now his availability for the start of the 2022 campaign is in question. We'll track his rehab this offseason.

Washington has placed DT Jonathan Allen on the COVID list. Allen has actually seen fellow DT Matt Ioannidis pass him in snaps the past 2 weeks. A narrow Week 13 edge gave way to Ioannidis playing 66 snaps to Allen's 46 in Sunday's loss to Dallas. Allen still delivered 1 of his most productive stat lines of the season and would be a significant loss if he can't make it back for Sunday's game against the Eagles. Washington also has 3 DEs already on the COVID list. The return of Montez Sweat could particularly soften the blow of missing Allen. We'll see where the D-line sits heading into the weekend.

Washington WR Terry McLaurin has been ruled out of Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys with a concussion. It's his 2nd documented concussion. We'll track his progress through the protocol this coming week.

Washington DE Montez Sweat has tested positive for COVID and will miss at least the next 10 days, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That mandated timeline comes because Sweat is not vaccinated. He'll miss at least Sunday's game against Dallas. We'll see about his availability for a Week 15 clash with Philadelphia. Sweat had been slated to return after missing the past 4 games with a jaw fracture.

Washington is placing TE Logan Thomas (knee) on IR. It's his 2nd trip to IR, which ends his 2021 season. We're still waiting for more details on Thomas' knee injury and whether it'll impact his 2022 campaign. It'll be rookie John Bates and Ricky Seals-Jones, who seems close to returning from his hip injury, at TE for Washington the rest of the way.

Washington HC Ron Rivera said Monday that he expects DE Montez Sweat (broken jaw) and S Landon Collins (foot) to be cleared to return to practice this week. Sweat has missed the past 4 games with his injury. Collins missed Sunday's win over the Raiders with an injury he suffered late in the previous week's win over Seattle. We'll keep an eye on the statuses of both players through the week, but it seems they'll be back in play for IDP consideration for Sunday's upside matchup with Dallas.

Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports that Washington TE Logan Thomas avoided an ACL tear. HC Ron Rivera told reporters that Thomas' MRI came back better than expected. He said further testing is needed to confirm, so we'll see about the final diagnosis here. We're certainly betting on Thomas to miss some time. We'll see whether he has a shot to return this year.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Washington TE Logan Thomas "likely" tore both the ACL and MCL in his left knee in Sunday's win over the Raiders. That would obviously end the TE's season and potentially challenge the start of his 2022 campaign. We'll see how he progresses through the offseason. TE Ricky Seals-Jones appeared close to returning this week and would likely re-assume lead TE duties if healthy in Week 14. Rookie John Bates figures to factor in as well.

Washington TE Logan Thomas hurt his left knee in the 4th quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Raiders. He was able to limp off the field under his own power. Stay tuned for an update.

Update: Thomas was quickly ruled out for the rest of the game.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Washington WR Curtis Samuel is set to play Sunday against the Raiders. Samuel is officially questionable, but he played through a questionable tag last week as well. He's far rom worthwhile as a fantasy option, however.

Washington signed K Brian Johnson. He'll replace K Joey Slye, who's expected to miss a few weeks with a hamstring injury suffered in Monday night's win over the Seahawks. Johnson spent 4 games with the Saints earlier this season, connecting on all 8 FG tries but missing 3 of 8 XP attempts.

Washington TE Logan Thomas (hamstring) is active for tonight's game against the Seahawks. It'll be his first action since Week 4. HC Ron Rivera said earlier this week that Thomas would be on a snap count, making him a risky fantasy bet.

Washington WR Curtis Samuel (groin) is active for tonight's game vs. the Seahawks. He's expected to be on a snap count in his first action since Week 5.

NFL Network's Mike Garafolo confirms that Washington TE Logan Thomas and WR Curtis Samuel (groin) are expected to play vs. the Seahawks tonight. Thomas has been out since Week 4; Samuel since Week 5. HC Ron Rivera said earlier this week that both guys would be on snap counts tonight, making them shaky fantasy plays.

Washington TE Logan Thomas (hamstring) is expected to be activated from IR and play vs. the Seahawks on Monday night, according to ESPN's John Keim. Thomas has been out since Week 4 and will be on a snap count, HC Ron Rivera said. That obviously adds downside to Thomas' Week 12 fantasy outlook. TE Ricky Seals-Jones (hip) is listed as doubtful for the Monday nighter.
