The Washington Commanders are in evaluation mode, but the injury problems keep coming. Veteran tight end Zach Ertz was the latest, suffering a torn ACL against the Minnesota Vikings that likely ends his time with the franchise.
Washington placed Ertz on injured reserve on Wednesday, before preparations for their Week 15 game against the New York Giants gather pace. In a corresponding move, the Commanders quietly handed one final opportunity to a forgotten veteran who's gone way under the radar since joining the organization.
After getting considerable time to find his football legs again, the Commanders finally signed Chase Edmonds from the practice squad to the active roster.
