Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the Redskins are not expected to have RB Chris Thompson (rib, knee) or WR Jamison Crowder (ankle) available for Sunday’s game against the Panthers.
Both players were listed as questionable for Sunday game.
Thompson, 27, is a former fifth-round pick of the Redskins back in 2013. He was unfortunately waived at the start of the 2014 season, but re-signed to their practice squad soon after.
The Redskins brought Thompson back on a second-round restricted tender last year before signing him to a two-year extension at the start of the 2017 regular season.
Thompson stands to make base salaries of $1.99 million and $2.75 million over the next two years of the agreement.
In 2018, Thompson has appeared in four games for the Redskins and rushed for 100 yards on 23 carries (4.3 YPC) to go along with 26 receptions for 200 yards receiving and one touchdown.
Crowder, 25, is a former fourth-round pick of the Redskins back in 2015. He is the final year of his four-year, $2.825 million contract and set to make a base salary of $705,000 for the 2018 season.
Crowder will be an unrestricted free agent in 2019.
In 2018, Crowder has appeared in four games for the Redskins and caught 13 passes for 134 yards receiving and one touchdown. He has also rushed for 35 yards on three carries.
