The Washington Commanders will have a tough, divisional game against the Dallas Cowboys. However, the question is if they will be able to count with their best wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel for this game.
McLaurin returned to practice but wasnāt cleared to play due to a quad injury. This marks another absence for McLaurin who hasnāt played since Week 3. Hence, the Commanders will have to continue to find other options on offense.
Jayden Daniels and McLaurin have a great chemistry but both have missed games this season. McLaurin is the best deep threat of the team and works wonders playing outside the numbers.
Is Deebo Samuel playing?
Deebo Samuel suffered a heel injury and is also out of the game. This means the Commanders are without their two best wide receivers for this crucial matchup against the Cowboys.
Deebo Samuel Sr. #1 of the Washington Commanders
Samuel has been brilliant during his first season as a Commander. Offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury has been using him in a plethora of roles, but mainly as a receiver with center-field routes. Samuelās ability to rack up yards after catch will be missed against Dallas.

Who are the Commanders wideouts for the game?
Washington will have veteran Chris Moore and second-year wideout Luke McCaffrey as its top two receivers for this game, with fourth-round rookie Jaylin Lane getting more than a handful of snaps as well.
Noah Brown was poised for a big role but also suffered an injury and was moved to IR. Hence, Daniels will have to work with role players. Having said that, this offense is so creative that it shouldnāt shock anyone if itās able to move the chains against a struggling Cowboys defense.
