Lattimore Injured, Robinson to Provide Boost

The Washington Commanders will be without cornerback Benjamin St-Juste when they face the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday due to an ankle injury. St-Juste suffered the injury in the Commanders' Week 10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings and did not practice this week.

The loss of St-Juste is a blow to the Commanders' secondary, which has been struggling this season. St-Juste has started eight games this season and has been one of the Commanders' most consistent defenders.

In other injury news, running back Brian Robinson Jr. is expected to make his season debut against the Eagles. Robinson suffered a torn ACL in the preseason and has been sidelined ever since.

Robinson's Return a Welcome Sight

Robinson's return is a much-needed boost for the Commanders' offense. The Commanders have struggled to run the ball this season, averaging just 3.8 yards per carry.

Robinson is a physical runner who is known for his ability to break tackles. He is also a capable receiver out of the backfield.

The Commanders are hoping that Robinson can help them establish a more balanced offense and take some of the pressure off quarterback Taylor Heinicke.

Commanders Face Tough Test Against Eagles

The Commanders will face a tough test against the Eagles, who are one of the best teams in the NFL. The Eagles are 9-1 this season and have one of the most explosive offenses in the league.

The Commanders will need to play their best game of the season to have a chance of beating the Eagles. They will need to get pressure on Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts and force him into mistakes.

The Commanders will also need to find a way to stop the Eagles' running game, which is led by Miles Sanders and Kenneth Gainwell.

Prediction

The Eagles are a heavy favorite to win this game. However, the Commanders have a chance to pull off an upset if they can play a clean game and force the Eagles into mistakes.

Prediction: Eagles 27, Commanders 20
