The Washington Commanders have announced the elevation of wide receiver Robbie Chosen from their practice squad. This marks the second time Chosen has been promoted since joining the team on October 1.
Current Roster Changes
In a surprising move, the Commanders chose not to elevate any defensive backs. This decision comes despite both safeties, Quan Martin and Tyler Owens, being questionable for the upcoming game due to hamstring injuries.
Upcoming Matchup
The Commanders are set to face the Detroit Lions this week. Last week, players Treylon Burks and Sheldon Day were elevated from the practice squad. Consequently, both have now signed with the 53-man roster.
- Burks was previously elevated for the Seahawks game.
- Day’s promotion was his third, necessitating his signing to remain active for the season.
Impact of Injuries
Injuries have significantly affected the Commanders’ lineup. The defensive line depth has dwindled due to several season-ending injuries at the defensive end position. Meanwhile, the wide receiver corps is also facing challenges.
- Luke McCaffrey has been placed on injured reserve after breaking his collarbone during the opening kickoff.
- Terry McLaurin is sidelined again after reaggravating a quad injury.
- Noah Brown has been inactive since a groin injury he sustained in Week 2.
The Washington Commanders continue to navigate roster adjustments as they prepare for their upcoming game against the Detroit Lions. The elevation of Robbie Chosen highlights their response to ongoing injury challenges within the team.
