Ferrell (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup with the Giants, John Keim of ESPN.com reports. Ferrell popped up on the Commanders' injury report Friday as a non-participant in practice due to a knee issue despite practicing in full both Wednesday and Thursday. If Ferrell's knee injury stops him from suiting up in Week 2, expect Javontae Jean-Baptiste to work as one of Washington's first-team edge rushers.

Ferrell recorded two total tackles (both solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Buccaneers. The first-year Commander was the only player to sack Baker Mayfield on Sunday, getting after the Tampa Bay's quarterback in the third quarter. Ferrell spent his 2023 campaign with the 49ers, appearing in 17 regular-season games and recording 28 total tackles, including 3.5 sacks, and forcing one fumble. The 2019 first-round pick is expected to have a significant pass-rushing role in 2024 and will look to build on Sunday's performance when Washington takes on the Giants in Week 2.

Ferrell signed a one-year contract with the Commanders on Monday. Ferrell spent the 2023 campaign with the 49ers, appearing in all 17 of the team's regular-season contests while producing 28 tackles and 3.5 sacks. The defensive end was forced to miss the team's run to the Super Bowl due to a knee injury, but he'll look to pick up where he left off as he begins his time in Washington.

Ferrell (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's playoff matchup versus the Packers, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. Ferrell is expcted to miss multiple weeks while recovering from a knee injury suffered during the Week 18 contest versus the Rams, one that led to him being carted off the field. After failing to practice Tuesday through Thursday, it's no surprise that the 26-year-old will now miss his first game of the 2023 campaign. Ferrell logged 28 tackles, including 3.5 sacks, while playing as a rotational defensive end this season. In his absence Saturday, Randy Gregory and/or Robert Beal should see increased playing time behind starting defensive ends Nick Bosa and Chase Young.

Ferrell (knee) is expected to be sidelined for multiple weeks, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports. Ferrell suffered a knee injury in the team's Week 18 loss to the Rams, and he was carted off the field. He will now look to see if he can make it back at some point this postseason, but that would likely require San Francisco to advance multiple rounds.
