"Wise joined the Commanders last offseason after a prolific stint with the New England Patriots. He left this mark over the summer, but disaster struck early in the regular season. The Arkansas product sustained a serious knee injury in Week 2 that ruled him out for the year. This was a body blow to the defensive edge and the start of their complete capitulation on the health front."
"I've been doing great. They've been taking care of me. I've been improving. I've been getting better. I'm ready to go. Once everything moves forward, I'll be back on that field."

The Washington Commanders have re-signed defensive lineman Deatrich Wise Jr. to a one-year contract as general manager Adam Peters works through deals with out-of-contract veterans. Wise joined Washington last offseason from the New England Patriots but suffered a serious knee injury in Week 2 that sidelined him for the entire season. Now recovering well, Wise expressed readiness to return to the field. While some questioned the move given the team's need to get younger, Wise's skill set justifies the decision. His primary strength lies in setting the edge against the run rather than pass rushing, and his physical dimensions at 6-foot-5 and over 280 pounds make him valuable for defensive rotation.
