For the first time this season, a team other than his beloved Chiefs is alone atop Nick Wright's NFL tiers. Here's the list.OCTOBER 13, 2021
Chiefs vs. Washington preview ' Week 6 Here's everything you need to know before the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Washington Football Team in Week 6 of the 2021 NFL season.

Samuel Cosmi - Not practicing Wednesday Cosmi (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Cosmi suffered an ankle injury early in Sunday's contest with the Saints. Saahdiq Charles replaced the 22-year-old during Week 5 and would likely draw the start in Week 6 if Cosmi is unavailable.

Curtis Samuel - Limited to side field Samuel (groin) was on a side field with the training staff during Wednesday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Samuel never figured to practice, as coach Ron Rivera deemed the wide receiver week-to-week after the latest aggravation of his groin injury. It's a good sign that Samuel is on the field at all, but it'll be surprising if the team tries to rush him back into action this week after so many setbacks the past four months. That said, Washington does eventually need him, as the other wide receivers behind Terry McLaurin have largely been ineffective and/or injured.

Antonio Gibson - Held out of practice again Gibson (shin) isn't practicing Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Gibson revealed last week that he's been playing through a hairline fracture in his shin, noting that the injury isn't especially painful. It hasn't impacted his workload so far, though Gibson still cedes obvious passing downs to backfield mate J.D. McKissic. In terms of his rushing workload, Gibson has played two games since the shin injury was first listed, putting up a 14-63-1 rushing line against Atlanta and then a 20-60-2 line against New Orleans (with two targets in both games). He gets a nice matchup this week against a floundering Chiefs defense, though there is risk of McKissic getting more work if Patrick Mahomes and Co. jump out to a big start. The shin injury, however, isn't likely to impact Gibson's workload.

Darrick Forrest - Designated to return from IR Washington designated Forrest (hamstring) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Forrest will have a 21-day period to be added to the active roster, but if he isn't, he will spend the remainder of the season on injured reserve. When healthy, the rookie fifth-round pick is expected to garner a reserve role behind Landon Collins and Deshazor Everett.
OCTOBER 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Corn Elder - Signs with Washington Washington signed Elder on Wednesday.
Impact Washington signed Elder after it placed Darryl Roberts (quadriceps) on injured reserve. The 27-year-old corner will likely serve as a depth option until Roberts is able to return. Elder spent his first three seasons in the NFL with the Panthers, appearing in 30 total games and registering 43 tackles.
OCTOBER 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Darryl Roberts - Placed on IR Washington placed Roberts (quadriceps) on injured reserve Wednesday.
Impact Roberts suffered the injury against the Saints during Week 5. He will be sidelined for at least three weeks with the move to injured reserve, but he may miss more time. The 30-year-old corner played a limited role for Washington's defense this season, so his absence shouldn't affect the defensive rotations.
