Washington Trio Returns to Practice
Washington announced that cornerback Trey Amos, running back Jeremy McNichols and defensive end Deatrich Wise have returned to practice. Each player now has a 21-day window to be activated. Amos and McNichols opened the season on injured reserve with return designations, while Wise began on the reserve/PUP list.
Washington said Wednesday that Trey Amos, Jeremy McNichols, and Deatrich Wise were back at practice. Each now has a three-week window to be activated. Amos and McNichols started the year on injured reserve with return designations, so they missed the first four games. Wise opened the season on reserve/PUP.
Amos, a 2025 second-round pick, played 10 games as a rookie and started eight. Coach Dan Quinn said his timeline remains uncertain. McNichols, 30, has been with Washington since 2024 and offers backfield depth and special teams work. Wise, a longtime Patriot, played two games in his first Washington season and re-signed this spring.
The returns could affect Commanders fans, fantasy managers, and the team’s locker room by adding depth and competition. If Amos, McNichols, and Wise regain health, they may help stabilize a roster dealing with injuries, potentially influencing game results and fan engagement. Their availability could also shape roster decisions and Wise’s pending free-agent market.
