The Washington Commanders released their final injury report for today’s game on Wednesday and then made some roster moves earlier today. Center Michael Deiter and P Mitch Wishnowsky were elevated from the practice squad, but only Deiter is active. Tress Way worked out before the game and is good to go. Wishnowsky gets a game check, a trip to Green Bay, and a good view of one of the best punters in the game.
Chris Rodriguez is a healthy scratch for the second week in a row. Washington has their two rookie LBs inactive today. Ale Kaho was an undrafted free agent from UCLA, and his teammate, Kain Medrano, was selected in the 6th round. A pair of backup tackles(Trent Scott, George Fant) will be on the sidelines, and QB Josh Johnson is inactive, but designated as the emergency 3rd QB.
Javontae Jean-Baptiste was a healthy scratch last week, but is active for his first game of the season today. Deatrich Wise was listed as questionable with a knee injury heading into tonight’s game, but was seen working out before the game and is good to go. He, along with the rest of the defensive line, was very effective in Week 1, and Washington will need everybody to help contain the Packers offense.
