Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel is out for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Last week, Samuel was replaced by Jamison Crowder, who had a productive game. However, it is unlikely that Crowder will replicate that performance. With Samuel out, Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, and Logan Thomas could see an increase in targets.

Wide receiver Jamison Crowder has rejoined the Washington Commanders, signing with the team's practice squad. Crowder, a fourth-round pick by Washington in 2015, could potentially be activated for the regular-season opener against the Arizona Cardinals. Terry McLaurin's availability for Week 1 is uncertain due to a toe injury. Crowder has previously played for Washington from 2015-2018, the New York Jets, and the Buffalo Bills. He has a career total of 428 catches for 4,667 yards and 28 touchdowns, including 14 touchdowns with Washington.
