Good news: The #Commanders have activated CB Trey Amos from IR, as well as LB Jordan Magee and RB Jeremy McNichols Bad Via @RapSheet on X

What happened: Washington moved cornerback Trey Amos, linebacker Jordan Magee and running back Jeremy McNichols off injured reserve. Running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt heads to injured reserve with a groin injury.

Why it matters: The moves restore options at cornerback, linebacker and running back on the active roster. The backfield mix changes with one runner returning and another leaving the active group.

What to watch: Availability becomes clearer at the scheduled kickoff, which has not started yet.
