The Washington Commanders ruled out newly acquired cornerback Marshon Lattimore for Sunday's home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers because of a hamstring injury.
Commanders coach Dan Quinn made the announcement Friday after Lattimore -- obtained from the New Orleans Saints at the league trade deadline on Tuesday for three draft picks -- didn't practice all week. He was limited by a strained hamstring in recent weeks.
"We're trying to engage him as quickly as we can, so when it does become ‘go time,' there's not a lag there," Quinn said.
Also, Washington running back Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) didn't practice Friday and was ruled out. He missed the win against the Giants due to a hamstring injury.
Robinson leads the club with 461 rushing yards and six touchdowns.
The Commanders (7-2) have a short week with a game at NFC East rival Philadelphia next Thursday.
Washington also worked out kickers with Austin Seibert dealing with a right hip issue and signed veteran Zane Gonzalez to the practice squad. Seibert is questionable.
Lattimore, 28, started all seven games he played this season for the Saints before missing their game Sunday, a 23-22 loss at the Carolina Panthers. He has 30 tackles.
New Orleans selected him 11th overall in the 2017 NFL Draft out of Ohio State. A four-time Pro Bowl selection (2017, 2019, 2020, 2021) has 405 tackles, 15 interceptions -- two returned for touchdowns -- five forced fumbles and five fumble recoveries and 88 pass breakups in 97 games (all starts).
Seibert, 27, has made 25 of 27 field-goal attempts -- a long of 55 yards -- and all 22 extra-point attempts in eight games in his first season with Washington. He missed practice on Wednesday and was limited on Thursday.
He has played 39 career games and is 70 of 83 on field goals and 78 of 84 on extra points for the Cleveland Browns (2019-20), Cincinnati Bengals (2020), Detroit Lions (2021-22), New York Jets (2023) and Commanders. The Browns picked him in the fifth round of the 2019 NFL Draft out of Oklahoma.
Gonzalez, 29, has not played in an NFL game since 2021. He is 91 of 113 on field-goal attempts -- a long of 57 yards -- and 127 of 134 on extra points in 63 games for the Browns (2017-18), Arizona Cardinals (2018-20) and Panthers (2021). The Browns selected Gonzalez in the seventh round of the 2017 NFL Draft out of Arizona State.
