There was one ongoing theme around Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn's latest media availability. Unsurprisingly, it was the injury issues that befell his squad during their Thursday Night Football defeat to the Green Bay Packers. Quarterback Jayden Daniels' status for this weekend's clash with the Las Vegas Raiders is in doubt with a sprained knee. Bates has gradually emerged as one of the league's most prolific blockers at the tight end position. Ben Sinnott and Colson Yankoff were used sparingly when Bates left the action last time out.
