Chig Okonkwo Misses Wednesday Practice With Hamstring Injury

Washington Commanders tight end Chig Okonkwo did not participate in Wednesday's practice after sustaining a hamstring injury late in Week 1's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Okonkwo's status for Sunday's divisional game against the Dallas Cowboys appears doubtful, as he will need to return to practice later in the week to earn medical clearance. If Okonkwo is unable to play, tight ends John Bates and Ben Sinnott stand to see expanded offensive roles against Dallas.
