The Washington Commanders announced Tuesday that defensive tackles Daron Payne and Javon Kinlaw, along with running back Jeremy McNichols, have been placed on injured reserve. The moves were reported by Charean Williams of ProFootball Talk on NBC Sports.
Payne, a former first-round pick, has been a key interior presence for Washington's defensive line. Kinlaw, also a former first-round selection, joined the Commanders this offseason. McNichols provided depth in the backfield. All three players will miss a minimum of four games before becoming eligible to return.
