Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn brought good injury news on Sunday, along with one concern.
The good news was that Marcus Mariota's injury was not serious. Quinn also brought good news on Sunday that starting TE John Bates will return to practice on Tuesday, as will converted guard-to-center Nick Allegretti, who the Commanders have hoped can step in and adequately replace 2024 and 2025 starter Tyler Biadasz.
Then there was the Trey Amos update. Amos, a rookie second-round draft selection (61) in 2025, played ten games for Washington last season before going down with a broken fibula. In that game against the Detroit Lions, Amos fractured a fibula and missed the rest of the season.
Amos spent the start of this 2026 training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list recovering from some sort of soft tissue injury, as Quinn had stated to the media. August 7, Amos passed his Commanders' physical and was activated off the PUP list to return to practice. On August 8, Amos returned and promptly injured his ankle badly enough that he missed all of the past week.
"He is dealing with soreness (ankle)...he is not there yet," expressed Quinn. "You'll see him out doing stuff to the side, working into that spot. But he won't be able to fully participate this week."
