Bellore (knee) is out for Thursday's game at Philadelphia, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
Bellore was forced out of the Commanders' contest in Week 10 early by a knee injury, and now he'll be sidelined for his first game this season Thursday as he recovers. In his absence, rookie fifth-rounder Jordan Magee has one less hurdle to potentially see his first defensive snap this year.

Commanders' Marshon Lattimore: DNP on Monday's estimation
Rotowire
Lattimore (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimation.
Lattimore has been sidelined since aggravating his hamstring injury in Week 8 while still with the Saints, and Wednesday's DNP is a sign that he could be in danger of missing Thursday night's matchup against the Eagles. The veteran cornerback will likely need to progress to at least limited participation Tuesday or Wednesday in order to make his Commanders debut in Week 11.

Commanders' Nick Bellore: Injures knee in Week 10
Rotowire
Bellore suffered a knee injury Sunday against Pittsburgh and is questionable to return.
Bellore was deemed questionable to return with just over two minutes remaining in the game, so it may be difficult for him to return if the injury is isn't minor. Prior to his exit, the linebacker notched one tackle on special teams. Bellore entered Sunday having played just six defensive snaps on the season, but he had logged 164 special-teams snaps over nine contests.

Commanders' Dante Fowler: Good to go for Week 10
Rotowire
Fowler (groin) was a full practice participant Friday and carries no injury designation into Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Fowler was limited in the first two practices of the week due to a groin injury, but he was able to participate in Friday's session without restriction. Unless he suffers a setback during pregame warmups, the 2015 first-round pick will suit up Sunday. Through nine regular-season games, Fowler has logged 20 tackles (13 solo), including 6.5 sacks, one forced fumble and a pick-six.

Commanders' Marshon Lattimore: Won't play this week
Rotowire
Lattimore (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
The recent trade acquisition didn't play Week 9 for the Saints and now will miss Week 10 with the Commanders. Washington traded a 2025 third-round pick, 2025 fourth-rounder and 2025 sixth-rounder this Tuesday in exchange for Lattimore and a 2025 fifth-round selection. Once he's healthy, he'll presumably be one of the team's starting perimeter cornerbacks, which could mean Mike Sainristil moves back to the slot.

Commanders' Dante Fowler: Dealing with groin issue
Rotowire
Fowler (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
The first-year Commander appears to have picked up a groin injury in the team's Week 9 win over the Giants, but still managed to play 31 defensive snaps and record six total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and force a fumble. Fowler's participation in practice Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play through the pain in Sunday's matchup against the Steelers.

Commanders' Bobby Wagner: Tacks on another seven stops
Rotowire
Wagner posted seven tackles (three solo) and a fumble recovery in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Giants.
Wagner led the league in tackles last season but ranks 13th this year with 76 through nine games, trailing far behind the leader, Colts LB Zaire Franklin. Nevertheless, Wagner will comfortably surpass 100 tackles for the 13th time in his career as long as he stays healthy, and he continues to be a must-start IDP option down the stretch.

Efe Obada: Let go by Washington
Rotowire
Obada was released by the Commanders on Tuesday.
The move opens a spot on the Commanders' 53-man roster for Marshon Lattimore, who was acquired from the Saints on Tuesday. Obada played in each of Washington's last four regular-season games while serving in rotational role at defensive end behind starters Dorance Armstrong and Clelin Ferrell. Over that span, Obada registered three tackles (one solo) across 52 defensive snaps. He should get interest from teams looking to add depth at defensive end.

Commanders' Marshon Lattimore: Moving on to Washington
Rotowire
The Commanders acquired Lattimore (hamstring) and a 2025 fifth-round draft pick from the Saints on Tuesday in exchange for a 2025 third-round draft pick, a 2025 fourth-round draft pick and a 2025 sixth-round draft pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
One of the NFL's most surprising teams this season with a 7-2 record through nine weeks, the Commanders will bolster their secondary ahead of a potential playoff push with the addition of Lattimore, a four-time Pro Bowler. Before missing the Saints' Week 9 loss to the Panthers due to a hamstring injury, Lattimore had suited up in six of New Orleans' first seven contests, recording 30 tackles and two pass breakups. The 28-year-old is under contract through 2026, the final season of a five-year, $97.6 million extension he signed in September 2021.

Rotowire
Luvu (shin) didn't practice Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Luvu played 100 percent of the Commanders' defensive snaps and recorded six total tackles in Sunday's win over the Bears, however, it appears he picked up a shin injury in the process.
