Commanders vs Giants Thursday Injury Report: Antonio Gibson misses another practice

The Washington Commanders practiced again today as they prepare to return home this week and host the New York Giants. Washington lost to them a month ago, but the teams will look a lot different on both sides for the rematch.

FB/TE Alex Armah and DE James Smith-Williams both suffered hamstring injuries last week, and continue to miss practice. Armah has been active on game days over Cole Turner and Curtis Hodges, who would fill in if he couldn't go vs the Giants on Sunday. Smith-Williams moved into a starting role after the trades of Chase Young and Montez Sweat. His absence would shake up the depth chart again if he is inactive on Sunday. Efe Obada stepped up last week, and would get the call again vs the Giants.

Curtis Samuel had been dealing with a foot injury, then injured his toe three weeks ago. He missed the game in New England, but returned to play the Seahawks in Seattle and played 31 snaps(51%) on offense. He was limited again today, but should be available on Sunday afternoon. Antonio Gibson misses another practice with a toe injury, and his status for Sunday is in question. Chris Rodriguez would get more action if Gibson is sidelined, and Jonathan Williams or Derrick Gore could be elevated from the practice squad as the 3rd RB/special teams player.
