11 tackles against Panthers Holcomb recorded 11 tackles (six solo) and a sack across 68 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Panthers.

Impact Holcomb cleared concussion protocol on Sunday in time to take the field and it's a good thing he did, as the linebacker led the team in tackles. He now has 65 tackles (39 solo), 2.5 sacks, a pass defensed and an interception through 10 games this season.

Clear of concussion for Week 16 Holcomb (concussion) is active heading into Sunday's game against the Panthers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Holcomb was able to log back-to-back full practice sessions to close out the week Thursday and Friday, and he's now been officially cleared after being deemed unavailable for a Week 15 matchup against Seattle. The second-year linebacker from North Carolina has started eight of the nine games he's appeared in this season after starting 15 times as a rookie. He's averaged six tackles per game in 2020 with a total of one interception and 1.5 sacks.

Practices in full Friday Holcomb (concussion) logged another full practice session Friday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Impact That marks two straight full practice sessions for Holcomb, so he appears good to go for Sunday's clash against Carolina assuming he is able to clear the league's concussion protocol.

Logs full practice session Thursday Holcomb (concussion) practiced in full Thursday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Holcomb missed Sunday's loss to Seattle after suffering the concussion during practice last week, but his ability to practice in full Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's session bodes well for his chances of returning Week 16. Still, he'll need to clear the league's concussion protocol before he's officially able to suit up.

Unavailable for Week 15 Holcomb (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Seahawks, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Holcomb appeared to have suffered a concussion during the practice week, and he'll enter the league's five-step concussion protocol. Kevin Pierre-Louis (ankle) will also sit out, meaning Khaleke Hudson, Jared Norris and Thomas Davis likely will rotate in at the outside linebacker positions against an efficient Seahawks run game.

Can't go Sunday Holcomb (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Rams.

Impact Holcomb will be absent for a fourth straight game, as the knee injury he picked up in the season opener continues to linger. The 2019 fifth-round pick is a depth player, so unless Jon Bostic gets hurt, Holcomb's absence won't shake up the defensive dynamic.

Gets questionable designation Washington has listed Holcomb (knee) as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Rams.

Impact Holcomb was a full participant at practice all week, so his questionable status is presumably a bit cautious. The second-year linebacker has been sidelined since Week 2. If given the green light, he is expected to provide depth at linebacker and help contribute on special teams.

OCTOBER 10, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Full-go Wednesday Holcomb (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Holcomb is slated to return to the lineup Sunday against the Rams. The 2019 fifth-round pick played in the season opener but stuck to special teams, so he'll likely serve in a similar role unless starting middle linebacker Jon Bostic gets hurt.
