The Washington Commanders are reportedly signing QB Jake Fromm to their practice squad. Carson Wentz had successful surgery on his fractured ring finger on his throwing hand yesterday, and is expected to miss 4-6 weeks. That moves the other QBs on the roster up the depth chart. Last year’s starter Taylor Heinicke gets the call again to replace Washington’s Week 1 starter. Fifth round rookie Sam Howell will be active for the first time this season and serve as Heinicke’s backup.
Jake Fromm should be familiar to Washington fans, he was the QB for their Week 18 game against the New York Giants.
