The Commanders may not have a key offensive piece for the rest of the season.
Head coach Dan Quinn told reporters in his Wednesday press conference that Noah Brown suffered a “significant internal injury” during the Week 13 victory over the Titans. Brown exited the contest with a hip issue.
“During the game, between him and the medical staff, they did a really good job to address what was a serious injury,” Quinn said, via Nicki Jhabvala of the Washington Post. “Fortunately, he’s going to be OK. But it’s going to knock him out for a bit.”
While it’s uncertain Brown will be out for the rest of the season, Quinn said, “it’s likely heading that way.”
Brown, 28, had been putting together one of his best pro seasons. He’s caught 35 passes for 453 yards with a touchdown — the game-winning score against the Bears. He’s third on the club in receptions and receiving yards.
After their Week 14 bye, the Commanders will be back in action against the Saints this weekend.
