Commanders give redemption story extended audition with quiet roster move
"It was another torrid evening on the injury front for Washington against the Seattle Seahawks. Standout quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered a dislocated elbow. Veteran cornerback Marshon Lattimore sustained a torn ACL. If that wasn't bad enough, the Commanders also lost breakout wide receiver/kick returner Luke McCaffrey to a broken collarbone on the game's opening kickoff. Commanders could give Treylon Burks an extended audition to secure his long-term future"
"Peters, not for the first time this season, had to think on his feet. Lattimore and McCaffrey both went to injured reserve. The Commanders used this unfortunate incident to sign Treylon Burks from the practice squad to the active roster. Burks got his first taste of action in Washington last time out. The coaching staff must have been suitably impressed."
Adam Peters declined to make trades at the 2025 deadline, leaving the roster intact despite rumors of asset sales. Washington suffered major injuries: quarterback Jayden Daniels dislocated his elbow, cornerback Marshon Lattimore tore an ACL, and wide receiver/kick returner Luke McCaffrey broke his collarbone on the opening kickoff. Lattimore and McCaffrey were placed on injured reserve. The team promoted Treylon Burks from the practice squad to the active roster. With Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown sidelined, Burks will receive an extended audition. Burks has size, speed, and explosiveness but must overcome past injuries without Daniels under center. The receiver room now includes Burks, Deebo Samuel Sr., Chris Moore, and rookie Jaylin Lane.
