  "account": "Washington Commanders will host the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. After a bye week, the Commanders fought back against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 8, but still need to improve. The Rams are favored to win on Sunday. The Commanders would like to boost their chances, and their secondary is the biggest area of need. Cornerback Trent McDuffie is the top candidate for a trade. McDuffie has been solid with 25 tackles, eight interceptions, and three tackles for loss in his first six games as a Rams cornerback. If the Commanders can secure McDuffie, they would have a strong defensive unit with Trey Amos and Amik Robertson, possibly giving them an elite secondary. The Rams are not as injury-riddled as the Eagles, so Washington will face a tougher challenge. Having a player like McDuffie to help defend against Matt Stafford’s passes to Puka Nacua would be a major advantage for the Commanders.",
