"It's been one major issue after another for the Washington Commanders this season. These have primarily centered on the constant stream of injury problems head coach Dan Quinn is currently dealing with. The injury bug has been relentless, with new long-term issues arriving almost every week. Second-round rookie cornerback Trey Amos was the latest to go on the shelf, suffering a fractured fibula against the Detroit Lions that brings his immensely encouraging first season to an abrupt halt."
"The Commanders confirmed that wide receiver Treylon Burks wouldn't travel with the team to Spain. Adam Schefter from ESPN shed further light on the matter, revealing that the former Arkansas standout underwent finger surgery after leading the team in receiving versus the Lions. Schefter added that this is not expected to be a long-term issue, which is something. Burks should be back after Washington's bye week, barring any setbacks, but this further depletes the pass-catching weapons at veteran quarterback Marcus Mariota's disposal this weekend."
Head coach Dan Quinn is contending with a relentless wave of injuries that produce new long-term losses almost every week. Second-round rookie cornerback Trey Amos suffered a fractured fibula against the Detroit Lions, ending his encouraging first season. Wide receiver Treylon Burks underwent finger surgery and will not travel to Spain for the Week 11 game; the issue is not expected to be long-term and Burks should be back after the bye week. Burks was signed from the Tennessee Titans practice squad and led the team in receiving versus the Lions. Burks has a 100 percent catch success rate from four targets and a 118.7 passer rating when targeted.
