Commanders Injury Update: S Kamren Curl and TE Cole Turner Will Play Against Eagles
ASHBURN, Va. -- The Washington Commanders (1-1) welcome the Philadelphia Eagles (2-0) into FedEx Field on Sunday for a Week 3 NFC East battle that features quarterback Carson Wentz's first game against the team that drafted him second overall in the 2016 NFL Draft.
After a solid performance by second-year safety Darrick Forrest in Week 1 and a not-so-good one in Week 2, the Commanders are hoping to get Kamren Curl back from his thumb injury.
Something deemed far more likely now that he's been cleared, medically.
(Update) Friday, September 23
After the team's final practice of the week both defensive linemen, Casey Toohill (concussion) and Daniel Wise (ankle) were ruled out of this weekend's contest.
Only defensive lineman James Smith-Williams (abdominal) and linebacker David Mayo (ankle) are currently listed as questionable for Sunday.
Something worth noting is Smith-Williams saying on Thursday he should be fine for game day.
