Summary

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jaylin Lane underwent successful ankle surgery on October 9 after fracturing and dislocating his ankle during a Week 4 game against the Indianapolis Colts. The injury ended Lane's season, adding to the team's difficulties as they also lost No. 1 receiver Terry McLaurin to a torn patellar tendon.
