Commanders optimistic about two injured starters before facing Giants

The Washington Commanders are hopeful about the return of cornerback Amik Robertson and receiver Treylon Burks for their upcoming game against the New York Giants on Thursday night. Coach Dan Quinn reported that Robertson's ankle injury has shown improvement, and Burks, who missed the last game with a foot injury, is expected to participate in practice to assess his readiness. Washington's recent loss to the Rams has put pressure on the team as it competes in a tight NFC East division. This game is significant as the Commanders need to rebound against the Giants, who currently lead the division.
