Washington vs. Falcons: Starting lineup and Injury report - October 3 | NFL Season 2021-22
Sunday brings an important NFC matchup as the Washington Football Team visit the Atlanta Falcons in a battle of two teams that each have a record of 1-2.
Washington comes into Week 4 reeling as their vaunted front-four has not pressured the quarterback as previously advertised. With first-rounders such as Chase Young and Montez Sweat, the Redskins are looking to give Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan all he can handle.
Meanwhile, the Atlanta Falcons earned their first win of the season last week against the New York Giants. They hope this is the start of a winning streak. Kyle Pitts has 11 receptions for 139 yards, but he has yet to reach the end zone.
Take a look at the injury report and the starting lineup for this week's matchup between the Washington Football Team and the Atlanta Falcons.
