Thankfully one of them Greg Ward Jr.

On Thursday’s injury report, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside was added as “limited” with a “foot” injury, which means that Ward and Robert Davis are the only two receivers that do not carry a designation as of 8:55 on Friday morning:

Davis played 16 snaps in the Redskins win, which amounted to 21% of the available plays. He was not targeted, however. JJAW was way up at 92% on 71 snaps and Ward was out there for 58% of the snaps, which was 58 total.

If, for some reason, J.J. can’t go, the Birds have Marken Michel on the practice squad, a guy who looked pretty good in the preseason and could perhaps jump in and pull a pseudo-Greg Ward if necessary.
