Commanders lose DT Javon Kinlaw to injury vs 49ers

The Commanders suffer another injury, losing starting defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw.

Washington Commanders defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw sustained a knee injury and will miss Monday night's game against the San Francisco 49ers. The 2020 first-round draft pick left the field late in the second quarter and was ruled out before the third quarter. Kinlaw injured himself during San Francisco's running back Christian McCaffrey's second rushing touchdown, which was the final play of the half for Washington's defense.

Unable to continue, he limped to the sideline with assistance from trainers. Kinlaw, who recorded two solo tackles before his exit, has now logged eight solo tackles and one sack for the season. The former 49ers' first-round pick played four seasons in San Francisco and one with the New York Jets before signing a three-year contract with the Commanders in 2025.
