Commanders' Shaka Toney: Suspended for 2023 season
Rotowire
The NFL announced Friday that Toney will be suspended indefinitely, minimum one season, for violating the league's gambling policy, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Toney as well as four Lions players were suspended Friday for violations of the NFL's gambling policy. Toney along with Quintez Cephus and C.J. Moore were given season-long suspensions for betting on NFL contests while Jameson Williams and Stanley Berryhill were suspended six games for wagering on non-NFL games. After appearing in 16 games with Washington in 2022 as a fringe player, Toney will now have to earn a roster spot again in 2024, if reinstated.

Commanders' Shaka Toney: Won't play Sunday
Rotowire
Toney (calf) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings, per the team's official site.
Toney is now slated to miss his first game of the 2022 campaign due to a calf issue. Across the team's previous five contests, the 24-year-old has totaled just 11 defensive snaps in that span, so his absence in Week 9 likely won't alter Washington's game plan too much.

Toney (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Packers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Toney was a late add to the injury report Friday and will not be available for Week 7. The rookie seventh-round pick has only appeared in one game this season and hasn't recorded any stats, so his absence shouldn't affect Washington's defensive rotations.
