Montez Sweat News
Washington Football Team defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio said that defensive end Montez Sweat (jaw), who hasn't played since Oct. 31, could play on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles if he clears the COVID-19 protocols. Sweat's 10-day isolation period ends on Saturday. It's unclear how many snaps Sweat would actually play if he's cleared and is active, but his presence would be a huge boost to a Washington defense that has been decimated by COVID-19 this week. The 25-year-old former first-round pick in 2019 has 19 tackles (11 solo), three tackles for loss, 12 QB hits and four sacks in eight games played in 2021. Even if Sweat returns, though, Washington's defense should be avoided in Week 15 fantasy lineups.
Washington Football Team pass-rusher Montez Sweat (jaw), who missed the last four games with a fractured jaw and was expected to return to practice on Wednesday, has tested positive for COVID-19, according to a source. Sweat is now expected to miss the next 10 days (which means he's unvaccinated), which will likely keep him out for the next two games. It's a tough break for Sweat and the Washington defense as they head into divisional games against the Dallas Cowboys this Sunday and the Philadelphia Eagles the following week. The 25-year-old had 19 tackles (11 solo), three tackles for loss, 12 QB hits, two forced fumbles and four sacks in eight games before fracturing his jaw in Week 8 against the Denver Broncos.
The Washington Football Team placed pass-rusher Montez Sweat (jaw) on Injured Reserve on Saturday with a fractured jaw that he suffered in the Week 8 loss to the Denver Broncos. In a corresponding move, the team signed Bunmi Rotimi to the active roster from the practice squad. The 25-year-old is expected to miss anywhere from four to six weeks, so Washington will be without one of their best pass-rushers for the foreseeable future. Before his injury, Sweat had recorded four sacks, 12 QB hits and three tackles for loss on the year. The Washington defense was heralded as the next great up-and-coming defensive unit in the preseason, but they haven't lived up to those expectations and rank tied for 14th in the league with 19 sacks through nine weeks. They are off the fantasy radar for a Week 10 matchup against the Super Bowl champion-defending Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
