Injury Update On Commanders Rookie Receiver

He's missed three straight weeks.

Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera said Thursday that he doesn't expect wide receiver Jahan Dotson to be available for Sunday's matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. 

Ron Rivera said he's not anticipating WR Jahan Dotson being available Sunday... Rivera also said Chase Young had a heavy workday Sunday followed by a couple more heavy work days and another checkup today. Rivera said they received a good report from the Dr so CY will go next week

Dotson has not played in a game since Week 4, and has recently aggravated his hamstring injury. As a result, the rookie wide receiver appears to be a few weeks away from returning, at least. 

His status for this week is still something to keep an eye on as he may be ruled out for Sunday's game as soon as the Friday injury report is released. 

While Dotson is out, fellow receivers Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel will continue to function as the top WR options in Washington, with Dyami Brown, Cam Sims and Dax Milne in reserve.
