Armstrong (ribs) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports. Armstrong injured his ribs in Week 6 against the Ravens, and the injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined against the Panthers in Week 7. The 2018 fourth-round pick was limited in practice all week, and while he's unlikely to be at 100 percent health, he'll suit up for Sunday's contest. Armstrong has logged 12 tackles (four solo), including 3.0 sacks, and one forced fumble through six regular-season games.

Dorance Armstrong Latest News
Will suit up against Chicago
Armstrong (ribs) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports. Armstrong injured his ribs in Week 6 against the Ravens, and the injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined against the Panthers in Week 7. The 2018 fourth-round pick was limited in practice all week, and while he's unlikely to be at 100 percent health, he'll suit up for Sunday's contest. Armstrong has logged 12 tackles (four solo), including 3.0 sacks, and one forced fumble through six regular-season games.
Could return in Week 8
Armstrong (ribs) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears. The first-year Commander missed Washington's Week 7 win over the Panthers due to a ribs injury, but it appears he has a chance to return Sunday after practicing in a limited fashion throughout the week. If Armstrong can't play through the issue in Week 8, expect Efe Obada to see increased reps with Washington's first-team defense.
Ruled out for Week 7
Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said Friday that Armstrong (ribs) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, John Keim of ESPN.com reports. Armstrong will miss at least one game due to the ribs injury he sustained during Washington's loss to the Ravens in Week 6. Quinn said Armstrong "had a good week but he's not there yet." The veteran defensive end's next chance to take the field will come Week 8 versus Chicago.
Missing Wednesday's practice
Armstrong (ribs) won't practice Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports. Armstrong sustained a ribs injury in the Commanders' Week 6 loss to the Ravens, and Wednesday's DNP is an indication that his injury may be significant. The first-year Commander will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for Washington's Week 7 matchup against the Panthers.
More testing to come
Head coach Dan Quinn told reporters that Armstrong will undergo further testing on his ribs injury Monday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports. Armstrong exited in the first half and did not return to Sunday's loss after sustaining a ribs injury. Monday's tests and Armstrong's practice participation this week will likely provide the best indication on whether the 27-year-old can suit up for the Commanders' Week 7 matchup against the Panthers.
Downgraded to out
Armstrong (ribs) won't return to Sunday's game against the Ravens. Armstrong didn't record any counting stats before exiting the contest in the first half. However, he's been a key piece of Washington's defense, posting 3.0 sacks over the prior three games. In Armstrong's absence, Efe Obada and Javontae Jean-Baptiste are candidates for increased defensive snaps.
Exits Week 6 with rib injury
Armstrong hurt his ribs Sunday versus Baltimore and is questionable to return. Armstrong was hurt in the first half, and it's unclear if he'll be able to return to the game. The defensive end has been a key part of the Commanders' pass rush this season, playing over half of the team's defensive snaps in each contest coming into Sunday and tallying 3.0 sacks. Javontae Jean-Baptiste could see more action if Armstrong doesn't return Sunday.
Tallies 1.5 sacks vs. Cardinals
Armstrong finished Sunday's 42-14 win over the Cardinals with five tackles (three solo), including 1.5 sacks, and one forced fumble. Armstrong contributed to two of the Commanders' four sacks Sunday. After combining with Frankie Luvu for a five-yard sack on Kyler Murray midway through the second quarter, Armstrong got to Murray for a seven-yard sack on a fourth-and-one late in the same frame, which led to a 45-yard field goal by Austin Seibert five plays later. Through the first four games of the regular season, Armstrong is up to nine tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, and one forced fumble.
Will play in Week 3
Armstrong (chest) was a full participant in Saturday's practice and does not have an injury designation ahead of Monday's game against the Bengals. Armstrong was limited Thursday and Friday due to a chest injury, but the 2018 fourth-round pick upgraded to full participation for Saturday's session. He has registered three tackles through the first two games of the regular season.
