Preseason Finale: Injury-Thinned Commanders Visit Ravens

Read the full recap →

The Washington Commanders travel to Baltimore on Friday, August 28. Washington is managing a run of injuries, including running backs Rachaad White and Bill Croskey-Merritt, center Nick Allegretti, and defensive tackle Johnny Newton, while running back Jerome Ford was released via injury settlement. Defensive tackle Tim Settle's return is a bright spot for a thin defensive line. No major quarterback competition is in play for either side this week.

Washington's backfield and O-line are shorthanded

With White, Croskey-Merritt and Allegretti all banged up, the Commanders are down key pieces on offense heading into this finale.

Settle's return helps a thin D-line

Getting a veteran defensive tackle back is a small positive for Washington after Newton's longer-term absence.

Straightforward roster-bubble evaluation

With no notable QB battle at stake, this game is mostly about the back of both rosters ahead of cuts.

Washington's injury list is the deciding factor

With multiple offensive contributors banged up or released, the Commanders have less healthy talent to work with in this finale.

Baltimore enters healthier overall

Without a comparable injury list of its own this week, the Ravens have a modest talent edge in a backup-driven game.

Preseason finale variance keeps this from a lopsided call

With both teams' true starters likely sitting, roster-bubble players will decide the actual outcome.

This is a preseason exhibition finale. Washington's injury list is the standout factor, but confidence stays low given the unpredictability of backup-only football.
