Commanders WRs Terry McLaurin (quad) and Deebo Samuel (heel) were full participants in Thursday's practice. That puts both guys on track to play vs. the Chiefs on Monday night. McLaurin has been sidelined since Week 3 and had gotten in just one limited practice since then (last Wednesday). Samuel has been battling this heel issue since Week 5 and sat out last Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. Both guys carry elevated risk coming off the injuries, but the full practices suggest they'll be ready for something close to their usual roles on Monday night. They're also facing a Chiefs defense that ranks sixth in adjusted fantasy points allowed to QBs and will be catching passes from QB Marcus Mariota. Consider both McLaurin and Samuel WR3s for Week 8.
