  "account": "The Washington Commanders released their final injury report on Friday for their Week 5 matchup against the New York Giants. Initially, they had 23 players on the injury report, and out of those, six will be ruled out for the upcoming game on Sunday. Wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Stefon Diggs were out with hamstring injuries, and Diggs did not practice on Friday, ruling him out for Sunday's game. McLaurin, however, practiced in limited capacity and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game.\n\nQuarterback Jayden Daniels practiced fully throughout the week and will be a starter for Sunday's game. Nevertheless, Washington will be short-handed at the safety position, with Nick Cross, Percy Butler, and Tyler Owens all being ruled out. Cross missed the past three games due to illness and is set to miss his fourth consecutive game with Week 5. To add to the injury woes, cornerback Trey Amos, Jeremy McNichols, and Deatrich Wise are all questionable for Sunday's game as well. Amos, McNichols, and Wise had their 21-day injured reserve return windows open during the week, which bodes well for Washington's chances.",
