  "account": "Washington Commanders defensive tackle Daron Payne sustained a serious foot injury during practice on Friday, according to an AP source. The injury was deemed significant by X-rays, and Payne's availability for Sunday's game against the Eagles was subsequently downgraded to out by the team. Payne, a nine-year veteran, had started each of Washington's six games this season and amassed 14 tackles and a sack. He has played a total of 136 games in his career, all with the Commanders. This injury follows the team's recent loss of star receiver Terry McLaurin to a torn left patellar tendon, just a week ago. The Commanders, currently at 1-4-1, now face the challenge of playing without Payne for the foreseeable future.",
  "summary": "Washington Commanders defensive lineman Daron Payne suffered a significant foot injury at practice on Friday, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Friday because the injury had not been announced by the team.",
