Commanders consider Frankie Luvu's return for Week 4 against Colts
Summary

The Washington Commanders are assessing the potential return of linebacker Frankie Luvu for their Week 4 game against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Luvu, who has been sidelined since injuring his groin in Week 1, participated in practice this week, showing signs of improvement. His return would be beneficial for the Commanders, who have had to rely on rookie Sonny Styles and Leo Chenal in his absence. Following Chenal's season-ending injury, Luvu's participation would help stabilize the linebacker position. A final decision on Luvu's status is expected to be announced on Friday.
