The Washington Football Team is set to host the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 2 of preseason action from FedEx Field.
As we get closer to kickoff, Washington announced the players who will not suit up tonight.
Cornerbacks Kendall Fuller and William Jackson III, wide receiver Curtis Samuel, tight ends Temarrick Hemingway and Sammis Reyes and defensive lineman Casey Toohill.
Not playing tonight: Curtis Samuel, William Jackson III, Kendall Fuller, Sammis Reyes, Temarrick Hemingway and Casey Toohill.

Samuel’s absence remains a precautionary one. If this were a regular-season game, he’d likely play. Hemingway and Reyes are both in concussion protocol.
The absence of Fuller and Jackson could mean Washington wants to see more of the young corners against Cincinnati’s better receivers. It’s a good move. Therefore, keep an eye on Torry McTyer.
So, if you are coming to the game at FedEx Field, Washington gave fans some reminders for parking.
