Osborn (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Eagles. Osborn will be a healthy scratch for the second straight week after Washington claimed him off waivers Dec. 11. Though the Commanders placed Noah Brown (kidney) on IR shortly after picking up Osborn, it appears that the latter isn't high enough on the wideout depth chart to be called upon for gameday. Terry McLaurin, Dyami Brown, Olamide Zaccheaus, Jamison Crowder and Luke McCaffrey will make up the team's wide-receiver room Sunday.

Latest Commanders News
K.J. Osborn : Inactive again Week 16
Osborn (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Eagles. Osborn will be a healthy scratch for the second straight week after Washington claimed him off waivers Dec. 11. Though the Commanders placed Noah Brown (kidney) on IR shortly after picking up Osborn, it appears that the latter isn't high enough on the wideout depth chart to be called upon for gameday. Terry McLaurin, Dyami Brown, Olamide Zaccheaus, Jamison Crowder and Luke McCaffrey will make up the team's wide-receiver room Sunday.
Jeremy Chinn : Suiting up Week 16
Chinn (concussion) is active for Sunday's matchup versus Philadelphia. Chinn suffered a concussion last Sunday against the Saints and was limited in each of the Commanders' first two practices this week. However, he upgraded to full participation Friday and has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in time to take the field Sunday. Chinn is thus clear to take on his usual starting role at strong safety in a tough matchup against the Eagles.
Zach Ertz : Cleared to play Sunday
Ertz (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles. Just as head coach Dan Quinn suggested would be the case earlier Sunday, Ertz is good to go for a matchup with one of his former squads after he made rapid progress in his recovery from the concussion he sustained just one week earlier in a win over the Saints. Ertz sat out the Commanders' first Week 16 practice before upgrading to limited activity Thursday and Friday. He then received clearance from an independent neurologist at some point over the weekend and exited the NFL's concussion protocol. Despite the limited practice activity leading up to Sunday, Ertz is expected to fill his usual role as the Commanders' top tight end, and he shouldn't face any restrictions with his snap count.
Zach Ertz : Good to go, per coach
Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said that Ertz (concussion) -- who remains listed as questionable -- will play in Sunday's game against the Eagles, John Keim of ESPN.com reports. Quinn's comments confirm that Ertz has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol just one week after suffering the head injury in last Sunday's 20-19 win over the Saints. Ertz will have his questionable designation officially removed when Washington posts its inactive list 90 minutes ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Despite not taking any contact this week as a limited practice participant Thursday and Friday, Ertz should settle back in as Washington's clear No. 1 tight end and likely won't face any major restrictions in terms of his snap count. Through 14 appearances on the season, Ertz has put together a 54-526-4 line on 77 targets.
Zach Ertz : Likely to be cleared for Sunday
Ertz (concussion/shoulder) is expected to play Sunday versus the Eagles, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Ertz sustained a concussion during last Sunday's win against the Saints, and he was a limited participant while wearing a black, non-contact jersey for all three practices during Week 16 prep. Based on Schefter's report, the 34-year-old is trending toward being cleared by an independent neurologist in time for this weekend's divisional matchup. His official availability will be released 90 minutes prior to kickoff at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday. If Ertz is active but still limited in any capacity, then No. 2 tight end John Bates could be in line for an increased role versus Washington.
Zane Gonzalez : Available against Eagles
Gonzalez will kick Sunday against the Eagles, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports. Gonzalez missed practice Wednesday to attend the birth of his child, but he's available to suit up Sunday. Greg Joseph wasn't elevated from Washington's practice squad, confirming Gonzalez's availability. Gonzalez has made three of five field-goal attempts and all 10 PAT tries in three appearances for Washington this season.
Jeremy Chinn : Could play Sunday
Chinn (concussion) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles. Chinn upgraded to full practice Friday after opening the week with consecutive limited sessions due to a concussion sustained in Washington's Week 15 win over the Saints, so it appears he's trending toward playing Sunday. However, the Southern Illinois product must still clear the NFL's five-step protocol in order to suit up in Week 16. If he's unable to do so, expect Percy Butler to serve as the Commanders' top strong safety.
Zach Ertz : Status in question for Week 16
Ertz (concussion/shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Eagles, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Ertz was diagnosed with a concussion during the Commanders' Week 15 win at New Orleans, but after missing Wednesday's practice, he was limited Thursday while wearing a black, non-contact jersey and maintained that activity level one day later. He still must gain clearance from an independent neurologist in order to suit up this weekend, and ultimately his status will be clarified about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, at the latest. John Bates and Ben Sinnott are on hand to cover for Ertz if the latter is inactive.
