How our call moved this week

• our call, P(plays)

94% EXPECTED → 97% EXPECTED

Every call we wrote for him this week, earliest first, as written.

In short

K'Lavon Chaisson is a starter at strong-side linebacker for WAS — 76% of the snaps in his best week of 6. He has a knee injury. This week he practised in full. His team has not listed him on the final report. We say he plays — 97%, in a band that plays 96% of the time. We have said PLAY since 85 hours before kickoff.

The reader concurs · grade B

The single in-week passage frames Chaisson's Thursday absence as scheduled veteran rest granted alongside Terry McLaurin, not an injury DNP (P1), which is consistent with — not contradictory to — a FULL practice line and a PLAY call. The same report reserves its concern for Javon Kinlaw, who 'went from full participation on Thursday to a DNP on Friday with a knee injury added,' and for Bill Croskey-Merritt's groin, and does not place Chaisson among the troubling cases (P1). The piece does note designations are not issued until Saturday (P1), so the forecast still rests on a pre-designation extrapolation, but nothing written contradicts the PLAY call. It would need to know: Saturday 17 Oct official injury report designation (Out/Doubtful/Questionable/none) for K'Lavon Chaisson; Club practice participation lines for Chaisson Fri 16, Sat 17, Sun 18 Oct and whether 'knee' appears beside his name; Any Dan Quinn or Commanders statement naming Chaisson's knee as opposed to scheduled veteran rest; Final inactive list for the Monday 19 Oct game
