Commanders' WR depth chart is crazy without Terry McLaurin, Deebo Samuel with injuries image

The Washington Commanders have gotten some brutal news.

Not only is Terry McLaurin out with an injury in Week 7. So too is Deebo Samuel (and Noah Brown still hasn't played this season).

So when the Commanders take on the Dallas Cowboys, they'll be particularly thin out wide.

There will be four wide receivers active for Washington.

Luke McCaffrey will lead the way. Christian's brother has already found the end zone this season.

Jaylin Lane and Chris Moore will be out there, too. They've been active for most of this season.

And then there's Robbie Chosen.

The former Robbie Anderson was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday.

This will be Chosen's first action of the 2025 NFL season. It's not clear whether he has anything left in the tank.

The Commanders did have four different WRs on their practice squad, though, and Chosen is the one they brought up, so he must've looked OK so far.

The other three WRs who weren't called up are Ja'Corey Brooks, Treylon Burks and Jacoby Jones. 

Burks was just signed and is coming off injury, but he's got the most pedigree of the group as a former first-round pick and might factor in down the road.

For now, it's a quartet of uncertainty that Jayden Daniels will have to work with against a division rival.
