Coach Dan Quinn said Friday that Forbes (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports. Quinn said Forbes won't be placed on IR, but that it's too early to make a decision on his potential availability against the Bengals in Week 3, per Ben Standig of The Athletic. The rotational cornerback isn't expected to be out "too long" according to Quinn, so it sounds like a Week 3 return may be within the realm of possibility.

Forbes (thumb) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. Forbes sustained a thumb injury in the Commanders' Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers. He managed to practice in full Wednesday, but the 2023 first-round pick will undergo surgery Friday to repair a torn UCL in his thumb, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Whether Forbes will suit up for Week 2 against the Giants could be more clear once Friday's injury report is released.

Forbes will undergo surgery Friday to repair a torn UCL in his thumb, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Forbes suffered the injury in a Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers and was expected to play through it Sunday against the Giants by wearing a splint. However, the move to have surgery may change that plan, and it's not clear when the 2023 first-round selection will suit up again. More clarity may be available once the team releases their next injury report.

Forbes (thumb) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. The 2023 first-round pick sustained a thumb injury during the Commanders' Week 1 loss, but it appears he'll play through the issue. Forbes recorded four total tackles on 32 defensive snaps in his sophomore debut, and he's expected to serve as one of the Commanders' top rotational cornerbacks in Week 2's matchup against the Giants.

Forbes (elbow) is listed as out for Thursday's game at the Cowboys. Forbes will miss his second game this season in Week 12, this time due to an elbow injury he sustained in Week 11 versus the Giants. In his stead, Danny Johnson is likely to see increased reps at cornerback.
