The Washington Football Team was back at practice on Sunday in Ashburn after a day off on Saturday. Of course, not everyone was on the field in pads.
Quarterback Kyle Allen remains sidelined with an ankle injury. He’s been out of practice for a week now. If Allen continues to miss time, it wouldn’t be a surprise if he began the season on injured reserve.
Defensive tackle Matt Ioannidis did not practice. Head coach Ron Rivera said he wasn’t feeling well, and it was nothing serious. Rivera also noted it had nothing to do with COVID-19. Ioannidis was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list last week.
Matt Ioannidis wasn't feeling well, which is why he wasn't at practice. Rivera said was not covid related.

Wide receiver Curtis Samuel was seen on the field but did not practice. Samuel, who has dealt with a groin injury since before minicamp in June, remains on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Rookie defensive end Shaka Toney did not practice and worked off to the side with trainers.
The Football Team did receive some good news on the injury front as cornerback William Jackson III, tight end Sammis Reyes, left tackle Charles Leno, wide receiver Kelvin Harmon and offensive lineman Keith Ismael were all back.
