Gets another sack Sunday
Payne recorded two tackles (one solo) including 1.0 sacks and a pass defensed during Sunday's 20-19 win at New Orleans. Payne made a mark in the sack column for his third straight appearance in Week 15, and he batted down a pass for the first time this season. He projects to see a healthy dose of the run in Week 16 when Washington hosts the Eagles.
In for Sunday
Payne (back) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Saints. The defensive tackle was listed as questionable after popping up on the injury report Friday with a back issue. Payne has yet to miss a game this season, recording 33 tackles (19 solo), including 3.0 sacks.
Questionable for Sunday
Payne (back) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints. The 27-year-old popped up on the Commanders' injury report Friday as a non-participant due to a back issue, putting his status for Sunday's game up in the air. Payne has yet to miss a game this season, recording 33 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, over 13 appearances. If he's unable to suit up in Week 15, Carl Davis and Sheldon Day will likely see increased work with Washington's first-team defense.
Sacks Williams in Week 8
Payne logged four tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 18-15 win over Chicago. Payne sacked Caleb Williams for a 15-yard loss late in the second quarter, which forced the Bears to punt on the next play. It was Payne's first solo sack of 2024, and through the first eight games of the regular season he has logged 15 tackles (11 solo), including 1.5 sacks.
Upgraded to full participant
Payne (back) was a full participant in Thursday's practice session. Payne opened with a limited tag Wednesday due to a back issue, but he was able to practice without restrictions Thursday. Payne and Jonathan Allen will anchor the middle of the Commanders' defensive front this season, with Dorance Armstrong and Clelin Ferrell lining up on the ends.
Dealing with injury
Payne (back) was a limited participant during practice Wednesday. Payne will start Week 1 prep as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. The Alabama product has only missed one regular-season game in his six-year career, so the chance of him sitting out Sunday is likely small. However, it'll still be worth monitoring his status for practice Thursday and Friday.
