The Washington Commanders are set to face the San Francisco 49ers on Monday night for Week 6 of the NFL season. Despite recent struggles, head coach Dan Quinn announced that safety Nick Cross, cornerback Trey Amos, and running back Jeremy McNichols will practice fully this week. Cross has missed the last three games, while Amos and McNichols began the season on injured reserve. Backup linebacker Jordan Magee also returned to practice after being on injured reserve for four games.
