The day is finally here: #Eagles vs. Carson Wentz, Pt 1 #🍿 audacy.com/94wip/sports/e…

Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr., who was shot twice during an armed robbery attempt less than a month ago, is out here running routes. 🤯 pic.twitter.com/7wOHWeDaY3

Josh Sweat and Fletcher Cox split sack on 3d and 5. Jordan Davis batted Carson Wentz pass was key on first down after 18-yard Curtis Samuel end around. Good start for #Eagles defense.

Just saw the best nickname for Commanders rookie WR Jahan Dotson: "Jahan Solo." Credit @CharlieMule_PR for that one.

Antonio Gibson just lost 10 yards on 2nd and goal from the four. The Commanders trail 24-0.

OK this is getting really ugly. Wentz threw two incompletions — a short one for John Bates that hit the ground, and a deep one that overshot Terry McLaurin — and then fumbled. The ball was knocked out of his hand as he pulled back to throw.

#Commanders CB William Jackson, who was questionable coming in, is inactive today, source said.

The Commanders' OL and QB share blame for the sacks today (Sam Cosmi didn't have his best game) ... but here are all 9 of them if you want to relive that experience: pic.twitter.com/8N2rOt3U35

The Commanders CBs today: Kendall Fuller Benjamin St. Juste Christian Holmes (2022 7th rounder) Rachad Wildgoose (signed after cut down day) Tariq Castro-Fields (signed after cut down day)

Hard to undersell Kam Curl's return today. Smart, experienced defender. When in box gives Cole Holcomb someone he knows and trusts. Less hesitation (in theory). At times Holcomb and box S have to play off one another. Better 3 safety sets now too.

Hasson Reddick just picked up and dropped John Bates. Not sure what came before. no penalty?

In Dallas' defense, he shouldn't be asked to block Daron Payne. #Eagles twitter.com/Jeff_McLane/st…

For today: a good chance DE James Smith-Williams and LB David Mayo can play. There's more concern now with CB William Jackson (back). Pregame warmups will be key for all.

CB Rachad Wildgoose, who was claimed will start in place of William Jackson, and DE Efe Obada will start for James Smith-Williams.

Charles Leno on the offense's slow start, again: "It's like we were constipated. We couldn't get shit going."

Jackson will be inactive today. Back injury issue stems from Lions game; flared up more late in week. Benjamin St-Juste will play outside when in base or 3 safety sets. St-Juste has played well to start the season.

Nice blocks by Kelce and Seumalo leading the way on the Goedert TD. Also well done by Dickerson turning and tossing Jonathan Allen at the LOS.

Washington's inactives: QB Sam Howell CB William Jackson III G Chris Paul TE Cole Turner DT Daniel Wise DE Casey Toohill DE James Smith-Williams That D-Line is thinnnnnn

Commanders on 3rd and 1 go with the Jonathan Williams handoff. It worked. First 3rd down conversion of the game.

Along the DL: John Ridgeway, William Bradley-King and Benning Potoa'e combined for 51 snaps Sunday. None of them were on the active roster here a week ago.

Update: 4 of the 9 DL on the initial 53 are out today, replaced by: DT John Ridgeway (claimed off waivers this week) DE William Bradley-King (PS elevation) DT Benning Potoa'e (PS elevation) Expecting Efe Obada to start with JSW out. twitter.com/BenStandig/sta…

On the #Commanders D-Line: Efe Obada likely will start for James Smith-Williams but he is going to have to play a lot of DT today too. That means plenty of Shaka Toney and William Bradley-King today. They'll also have newly-signed John Ridgeway and Benning Potoa'e playing at DT.

The Washington Commanders are shorthanded along the defensive line ahead of their Week 3 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Defensive tackle Phidarian Mathis was lost for the season two weeks ago, while defensive tackle Daniel Wise and defensive end Casey Toohill will miss Sunday’s game with injuries.

So it’s no surprise that Washington elevated two defensive linemen from the practice squad.

The Commanders brought up defensive tackle Benning Potoa’e and defensive end William Bradley-King for Sunday’s game. Potoa’e was signed to the practice squad earlier this month, while Bradley-King was a seventh-round pick by Washington in 2021. Bradley-King played in three games in 2021, recording 0.5 sacks

Look for Commanders DE Shaka Toney to take on a bigger role. Toney is a Philly native — from West Philly, was a standout at Imhotep Charter before going to Penn State.
