Treylon Burks led the Commanders in receiving in Week 8, making him a decent flex consideration in deeper leagues
The Commanders have gotten back in the win column. While Philadelphia took a 10-0 lead in the first quarter, it was all Washington from then on, with the club coming away with a 27-10 victory on Sunday night. With Tanner McKee starting his third game in place of Jalen Hurts, Washington’s defense thoroughly outplayed Philadelphia’s offense throughout the night. The Commanders were able to generate pressure on McKee, sacking him four times. Washington ended the night with nine official QB hits. Saquon Barkley was limited to just 30 yards on 13 carries, including a 3-yard touchdown midway through the first quarter. Jake Elliott had a shot at another field goal in the fourth quarter, but a 41-yard attempt banged off the left upright. He had made a 36-yard attempt that was negated by a penalty for an illegal formation. In many ways, that sequence encapsulated what’s been a rough 2026 for the Eagles. Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels finished the night 16-of-29 for 217 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions. It’s the first time Daniels has won a game since Oct. 2025. Treylon Burks led with three catches for 81 yards. Stefon Diggs has three catches for 38 yards with a game-tying touchdown in the second quarter. Drew Stevens gave Washington a three-point lead at halftime with a 39-yard field goal. Stevens also hit from 56 in the first quarter, 25 in the third quarter, and 42 in the fourth. For the Eagles, this is the franchise’s first six-game losing streak since 2012. The last time the team started 2-6 was 1999. Both of those instances came under former head coach Andy Reid, in his last and first seasons with the club, respectively. Philadelphia will host the 4-2-1 Giants next weekend. With the win, the Commanders are now 2-4-1 and will host the 4-4 Rams in Week 9
The struggling Commanders will have a pair of players who were listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Eagles
Treylon Burks and John Bates are active for the Commanders-Eagles game, despite being listed as questionable
Burks (foot) caught three of five targets for 81 yards in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Eagles. Burks led the Commanders in receiving yards, with most of his team-high total coming on a 53-yard catch in the third quarter. He finished third on the team in targets, two behind Antonio Williams and one behind Stefon Diggs. Burks has 147 receiving yards over his last two games and is expected to work alongside Williams and Diggs in three-receiver formations moving forward as the Commanders play out the season without Terry McLaurin (knee). Washington is likely to fall behind in Week 9, which could lead to more targets for Burks, albeit against a tough Rams secondary
Burks (foot) is listed as active Sunday versus the Eagles. Burks first dealt with a sore foot at the start of training camp, played through a shoulder injury in Week 6 and then sandwiched two limited sessions around Thursday's DNP due to a foot issue. It's unclear if the current concern is related to the previous one from three months ago, but he entered the weekend listed as questionable. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Sunday morning that Burks is expected to suit up, and he indeed avoided the Commanders' inactive list. With Terry McLaurin (knee) and Jaylin Lane (ankle) out for the season, Burks has a chance for regular WR reps moving forward alongside Antonio Williams, Dyami Brown and Luke McCaffrey behind top option Stefon Diggs
Washington Commanders wide receiver Treylon Burks (foot) is officially active for Sunday night's Week 8 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Commanders PR. Burks was listed as questionable after being limited Wednesday, missing Thursday's practice, and returning to limited participation Friday. The 26-year-old caught four passes for 66 yards against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6 before Washington's bye. He has recorded nine receptions for 152 yards and two touchdowns across five games this season. With Terry McLaurin (knee) on injured reserve, Burks joins Stefon Diggs, Dyami Brown, and Van Jefferson among Washington's available receiving options against Philadelphia
Burks (foot), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Burks sustained the foot injury during the Commanders' previous game Oct. 19 against the 49ers and doesn't appear to be back to 100 percent health, even with the benefit of a Week 7 bye. The wideout managed just two limited practice sessions this week en route to taking a designation into the weekend, but he looks to have shown enough to put himself on a path to play. Confirmation on Burks' status will arrive when Washington posts its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff, and assuming he's cleared to play, the 26-year-old could be in line for extra opportunities in the passing game after top wideout Terry McLaurin (knee) went down with a season-ending injury against San Francisco

The Commanders had already ruled out defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw (knee). He missed practice all week. Now they could be without another defensive tackle. The Commanders added Daron Payne to the practice report on Friday with a foot injury that has him questionable to play. Payne was limited in Friday’s practice. Tight end John Bates (shoulder), wide receiver Treylon Burks (foot) and defensive tackle Jer’Zhan Newton (pectoral) are also questionable. All three were limited in Friday’s practice. The Commanders added wide receiver Luke McCaffrey (hip) to the injury report as a limited participant Friday, but he has no injury designation. Quarterbacks Jayden Daniels (left elbow) and Marcus Mariota (knee) and wide receiver Stefon Diggs (hand/hamstring) are good to go as well
Adds: Treylon Burks
Burks (foot) was limited in Wednesday's practice. Burks was injured toward the end of Washington's Week 6 loss to the 49ers two Monday nights ago, but he was at least able to get in a limited session coming out of the bye week. With Terry McLaurin (knee) done for the year, Burks is expected to take on a larger role, along with rookie Antonio Williams, behind Stefon Diggs (hand) at wide receiver
