The Washington Commanders (4-10) have lost five straight games - and may be forced to play shorthanded when attempting to break that drought Sunday at the New York Jets (5-9).

Washington released its injury report following Wednesday's practice and had several players unable to participate due to injuries.

Those absent include running back Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring), center Tyler Larsen (knee), offensive tackle Charles Leno Jr. (calf) and running back Jonathan Williams (concussion).

The Commanders were also without defensive tackle Jonathan Allen and cornerback Kendall Fuller, both of whom were given veteran rest days.

Defensive tackle John Ridgeway (foot) and defensive end James Smith-Williams (hamstring) were both limited participants.

A trio of players - linebacker Cody Barton (knee), cornerback Emmanuel Forbes (elbow) and punter Tress Way (back) - were listed on the injury report but participated in full.

Robinson Jr. and Smith-Williams were inactive in last Sunday's 28-20 loss to the Los Angeles Rams.
