Washington Commanders dealing with multiple injuries as preseason nears end

The Washington Commanders are facing a growing injury list as they prepare for their upcoming preseason game against the Detroit Lions. Currently, at least 15 players, including Rachaad White and Daron Payne, are recovering from injuries, but most are not expected to face long-term issues. Coach Dan Quinn expressed optimism that quarterback Marcus Mariota will be ready for Week 1. The team is also working on its run game consistency, with rookie running backs Kaytron Allen and Robert Henry Jr. showing promise in their preseason opener, combining for 160 rushing yards and two touchdowns. Many starters are expected to play against Detroit, with Quinn indicating they will get valuable playing time before the regular season starts.
