Frankie Luvu - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Ready for Sunday Luvu (groin) does not have any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Luvu upgraded to a full participant in Friday's practice after being limited in the first two sessions of Week 5 prep. The linebacker is all set to suit up for Sunday's game and is likely in better shape than when he took the field in Week 4 against the Colts while battling through the groin issue.

Still working through groin issue Luvu (groin) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Luvu was able to overcome a groin injury to play against the Colts in Week 4, when he logged five tackles (one solo) while playing 95 percent of Washington's defensive snaps. The injury caused him to miss the Commanders' two games prior to Week 4, so unless his practice participation gets downgraded over the next two days, Luvu is likely to be available for Sunday's NFC East showdown against the Giants.
