Lions guard Kevin Zeitler is out vs. the Commanders, who are set to have linebacker Bobby Wagner

The Detroit Lions will be without starting right guard Kevin Zeitler when they host the Washington Commanders in the divisional round on Saturday night
JANUARY 17, 2025 • Associated Press
Jordan Magee - Not playing against Detroit Magee (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the Lions.
Impact Magee aggravated a hamstring injury during the Commanders' NFC wild-card win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. The injury was severe enough for him to be held out of practice all week, and as a result he will not play in Saturday's playoff bout. The rookie fifth-round pick has mostly served in a special-teams role this season, so his absence won't heavily impact the Commanders' linebacker rotation.

Daron Payne - Will play against Detroit Payne (finger) does not have an injury designation heading into Saturday's NFC divisional-round clash against the Lions.
Impact Payne injured his finger in the first half of Monday's NFC wild-card game against the Buccaneers, and he finished the contest with one solo tackle while playing in just 18 defensive snaps. Payne managed to log a full practice Thursday, and he has progressed enough to be able to play Saturday.
JANUARY 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Bobby Wagner - Good to go Saturday Wagner (ankle) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against Detroit.
Impact Wagner registered a DNP/DNP/LP practice log this week due to an ankle injury. Despite not logging a full practice, head coach Dan Quinn told reporters Thursday that there is "no concern" about Wagner's ankle for Saturday's contest, per Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. Wagner played every single defensive snap during the Commanders' NFC wild-card win over the Buccaneers this past Monday and finished with eight tackles (five solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one fumble recovery.
JANUARY 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Ben Sinnott - Cleared to play against Detroit Sinnott (shoulder) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the Lions.
Impact Sinnott injured his shoulder during the Commanders' NFC wild-card win over the Buccaneers this past Monday. He was limited in practice all week, but he has done enough to avoid an injury tag heading into Saturday's contest. Sinnott will serve as Washington's No. 3 tight end behind Zach Ertz (ribs) and John Bates.

Commanders' Jayden Daniels vs. Texans' C.J. Stroud: Who had the better rookie season?
Jamison Crowder - Clear for Saturday Crowder (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's wild-card game in Detroit.
Impact After not practicing Tuesday due to a hamstring issue, Crowder managed a pair of limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday, which was enough activity for him to be available for Saturday's matchup. Since the Commanders' Week 14 bye, he's compiled an 8-67-2 line on 12 targets over the last five contests, including playoffs.
JANUARY 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Zach Ertz - Ready for Saturday Ertz (ribs) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's divisional-round game at Detroit.
Impact Ertz progressed from no activity Tuesday to some Wednesday before logging a full session Thursday as he tended to a rib injury. With his status confirmed ahead of Saturday's contest, he should be in store for the 5.3 targets per game that he's averaged in 18 outings between the regular season and playoffs.

Ben Sinnott - Logs another limited session Sinnott (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Impact The 2024 second-round pick from Kansas State has now opened the Commanders' week of practice with consecutive limited sessions after sustaining a shoulder injury in the team's wild-card win over the Buccaneers. Sinnott's practice participation Thursday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play through the issue in Saturday's divisional round matchup against the Lions. If he's unable to suit up, Washington's tight end room will likely consist of Zach Ertz (ribs) and John Bates.
