NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Washington Commanders' defensive tackle Daron Payne suffered a significant foot injury in practice Friday, likely sidelining him for the foreseeable future and possibly requiring a stint on injured reserve.
- Payne, a key run defender with 42 tackles and four sacks this season, has also missed time recently due to a back issue and was ejected in a previous game for an on-field incident, further complicating his availability.
- The Commanders face challenges with multiple injuries on defense as they prepare for crucial games, including missing Payne for their NFC Championship matchup against the Eagles.
- In other NFL injury news, Rashid Shaheed remains questionable with a knee injury, while Seahawks running backs Zach Charbonnet and Jadarian Price are progressing in their recoveries, potentially creating a crowded backfield situation.
- The Miami Dolphins claimed edge rusher Jamree Kromah off waivers from the Bears, aiming to bolster their front seven with young talent.
