Terry McLaurin (Hamsting) Game-Time Decision Sunday
McLaurin is questionable this week with a hamstring injury and will be a game-time decision. He missed last game and the Redskins’ offense struggled, although much of that could be placed on the QB play. Colt McCoy is starting this week, but they’re also playing the top defense in the NFL, the Patriots. Even if he plays, this is a tough situation for McLaurin.

Colt McCoy Starting for Redskins Week 5
McCoy will be the third QB of the season for the 0-4 Redskins. Haskins had his shot at the role but finished 9-17 with 107 yards and 3 interceptions in 1 game. The Redskins are facing the Patriots this week, a team off to one of the best defensive starts in NFL history. Opposing QB’s have a 0-10 TD-INT ratio through 4 games, and the Patriots have only allowed 1 offensive touchdown through 4 games.

Manhertz will miss Week 5 with a concussion. Ian Thomas will fill the backup TE role for the Panthers.
As reported by: Joe Person Other tagged players: Ian Thomas Jalen Ramsey (Back) Out Sunday
Ramsey will miss the Jaguars’ Week 5 game against the Carolina Panthers. Having an elite defender off the field will give Panthers’ starting QB Kyle Allen a boost.
As reported by: John Oehser Devin Singletary (Hamstring) Questionable Week 5
Singletary is questionable Week 5 with a hamstring injury. He has missed the last two games but appears on track to play this week. When healthy he has been explosive this season, gaining 127 yards on just 10 carries over the first two weeks. T.J. Yeldon’s role is dependent on Singletary’s availability, although Yeldon’s upside is limited.

Allen was a full participant in practice Friday, but he remains in the concussion protocol. He can still pass the protocol tomorrow, and he will play Sunday if he does pass the tests. If not, Matt Barkley will start for Buffalo against the Titans.

Barkley has been ruled out for Week 5 with his high ankle sprain, giving Gallman another start as the lead back. Last week Gallman had 18 rush attempts and 7 targets, so he is a high-volume option.

Landry cleared the concussion protocol and practiced Friday, clearing the way for him to play Week 5. His official designation will be released later today.
As reported by: Mary Kay Cabot Sam Darnold (Mono) Ruled Out Week 5
Darnold took a significant amount of reps this week but wasn’t able to get medical clearance to play. That means Luke Falk will get another start this week. He had a terrible first start, finishing 12-22 for 98 yards and a pick, and the lack of reps certainly won’t help. The Jets implied total is just 14.5 this week, with only the Redskins against the Patriots projected to score fewer points.

Jackson will miss his third straight game Week 5, meaning Alshon Jeffery, Nelson Agholor and Zach Ertz will continue to get increased targets.

Gabriel has been ruled out for Sunday and will not travel with the team to London. The Bears have a bye after playing in London, so Gabriel will have two full weeks to recover.
