WFT's Ron Rivera not happy about hit that injured Logan Thomas

Here is another angle of the play.

Thomas, who was in just his second game back since hurting his hamstring in Week 4, was initially feared to have suffered a significant knee injury. But testing revealed that Thomas’ ACL was intact, although there was still some damage to his knee.

On Monday, Rivera spoke on Ngakoue’s hit on Thomas.

“You know, I thought the play was avoidable,” he said, per Nicki Jhabvala of the Washington Post. “It’s unfortunate that the hit occurred, and it was low. … For the most part, I just felt that it was something that was avoidable.”

At 6-6 on the year, Washington would be in the playoffs if the season ended today. While it does have a capable backup tight end in Ricky Seals-Jones, another prolonged absence from Thomas would obviously sting for the WFT.

For the Raiders, however, they are probably feeling the same way about a different play from Sunday’s game. One of their skill players was also injured on a controversial hit by a Washington defender.
