The Washington Commanders are taking significant steps to bolster their defensive lineup; by opening the 21-day practice window for DE Javontae Jean-Baptiste, they have an opportunity to assess his readiness for the remainder of the season.
Since being drafted in the seventh round from Notre Dame, Javontae Jean-Baptiste has shown promise, managing a noteworthy snap count of above 40% in his last two games before sustaining an ankle injury.
The Commanders are weighing their options regarding Jean-Baptiste's future; they need to decide within three weeks whether to activate him or place him back on injured reserve.
If Javontae Jean-Baptiste returns to full practice, it will not only increase defensive line depth but also reflect positively on the team's draft strategy this year.
