A hamstring injury will sideline the Washington Commanders' starting wide receiver for Week 4. CBS Sports confirmed he will miss the London game, while ESPN noted his inactivity after the Friday injury.
Fantasy platforms now flag him as unlikely to play, with The New York Times listing him among Week 4 inactives. The combined reports leave the Commanders without their primary target in the London matchup, and no return timeline has been provided.
Coaches will likely rely on secondary receivers to fill the void, though early analysis suggests the loss could affect the Commanders' passing attack.
