"There is anxiousness among the fan base regarding the status of Dorance Armstrong Jr. The defensive end, who's in the midst of a breakout campaign, dipped in and out of Washington's loss to the Chicago Bears with a hamstring injury. This is a short week, so it'll be a race against time to prove his fitness before potentially locking horns with his old employers this weekend."
"Head coach Dan Quinn revealed to the media that Armstrong participated in a walkthrough, which is a positive development. However, he won't know the official outlook until the former Kansas prospect ramps up his workload in the coming days. "He was able to do the walkthrough. I was encouraged by that. But I'll have a better feel for him tomorrow [Thursday] as we get a little more movement [in practice].""
Washington's roster has suffered multiple injuries through six weeks, leaving the pass rush thin. Dorance Armstrong Jr. suffered a hamstring issue that caused him to exit and re-enter the Bears game and now faces a short-week recovery before a divisional matchup with the Cowboys. Head coach Dan Quinn said Armstrong completed a walkthrough and that the staff is encouraged, but the team needs more movement in practice to determine his availability. Washington signed edge Drake Jackson as a contingency. Veterans Von Miller, Jacob Martin, and Jalyn Holmes remain as primary edge options, with limited practice‑squad help available.
