The hits just keep on coming for the Washington Football Team. On Monday, Washington placed four players on the reserve/COVID-19 test, including star defensive tackle Jonathan Allen. That gave Washington nine players on the COVID list.
On Tuesday, Washington added two more defenders to the list as cornerback Kendall Fuller and defensive tackle Tim Settle were placed on the COVID list.
That means Washington now has 10 players on the reserve/COVID-19 list — nine of which are defensive players. On Tuesday, the lone bit of good news was cornerback Darryl Roberts being activated from the list.

Washington currently holds the No. 7 playoff spot in the NFC and has a massive game this week against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles have the same record [6-7] as Washington. As of now, it looks like the WFT could have a difficult time even fielding a defense in Week 15.
