Commanders Suddenly Announce 4 Roster Moves Ahead of Giants Game

The Washington Commanders announced four roster transactions on Saturday ahead of their Week 5 matchup against the New York Giants. Washington activated defensive end Deatrich Wise Jr. from the Reserve/PUP list, signed linebacker Austin Keys from the practice squad, and elevated safety Darren Hall and wide receiver Van Jefferson. Meanwhile, quarterback Jayden Daniels is expected to return following a dislocated elbow.

Along with the roster adjustments, head coach Dan Quinn's team officially ruled out cornerback Trey Amos and running back Jeremy McNichols. Entering the contest at 1-3 after a London loss to the Indianapolis Colts, Washington faces a critical divisional test against the 3-1 Giants while missing several key players, including Marcus Mariota and Stefon Diggs.
