Washington Commanders defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw will miss the remainder of the 2026 NFL season due to injury, the team announced Wednesday. The news was reported by Commanders Wire correspondent Serena Burks.
Kinlaw, who joined Washington as a free agent signing, had been a rotational piece along the defensive line. The specific nature of the injury was not immediately disclosed, but the team confirmed he will not return this season.
The loss adds to the Commanders' defensive line depth concerns as they navigate the second half of their campaign. Kinlaw previously played for the San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets before signing with Washington.
