NFL, Washington and 2025 Week 7
Digest more
Insider John Keim blasted Washington’s defense after the Commanders blew another late lead, saying it “hasn’t played anywhere near expected.”
Former Washington Commanders and current Chicago Bears defensive end Montez Sweat got revenge on his former team late in the first quarter. Sweat punched the ball out on Commanders rookie running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt, putting the Bears in Washington territory.
A team official said that he will receive precautionary medical attention and that coach Ben Johnson will provide a further update on Tuesday afternoon. Moore was joking in the Bears’ locker room immediately after the game but was later spotted leaving Northwest Stadium in an ambulance, headed to a hospital for evaluation.
The Washington Commanders are expected to make several roster moves soon. DE Drake Jackson is reportedly signing to the 53-man roster and G Sam Cosmi could get activated from the Reserve/PUP list this week. Washington will need to make corresponding roster moves to open up spots for both players.
The Washington Commanders are looking to bolster their playmakers around Jayden Daniels amid a slew of injuries.
That included two turnovers by star quarterback Jayden Daniels, whose first interception of the season arrived on a bad underthrow with a receiver open in the end zone Monday night and whose first fumble came when he and running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt couldn't connect properly on a handoff with about three minutes left in the game.
