Falcons vs. Commanders Inactives: Chase Young OUT, But Will Logan Thomas Play?

With defensive end Chase Young missing the Washington Commanders' contest against the Atlanta Falcons, is there enough on the field to stay above .500?

LANDOVER, Md. -- The Washington Commanders announced Sunday morning that defensive end Chase Young will not make his season debut this week against the Atlanta Falcons

Already over one full year since he last took an NFL rep, Young will have to wait yet another week to get his next. 

For the Commanders, Young joins a list already featuring linebacker Cole Holcomb (foot/injured reserve) and cornerback Benjamin St-Juste (ankle) that will miss this week's game. 

With the defense playing wounded, Washington could use any offensive help they can get but had tight end Logan Thomas (rib) designated as questionable entering the weekend.

Fortunately, Thomas is active.

Not all Commanders are so fortunate, however, and the following players are inactive today.

Joining him, on Sunday's inactive report will be the following Commanders.
