PFM Impact on Washington Commanders

Chig OkonkwoWorth watching

Okonkwo opened the season atop Washington's tight end depth chart. PFM will monitor his Week 2 availability because an absence would push more work toward John Bates and Ben Sinnott.

Roster StrengthOffense Rating
Frankie LuvuMeaningful impact

Luvu is a starting linebacker and one of Washington's defensive leaders. PFM will review Defense and Roster Strength if the groin injury threatens his Week 2 availability.

Roster StrengthDefense Rating
K'Lavon ChaissonMeaningful impact

Chaisson's return gives Washington an important edge option back on a defense PFM grades as a concern. His progress also softens the short-term pass-rush risk while Odafe Oweh remains out.
