Commanders Make Surprising Move: Robbie Chosen Returns to Practice Squad—What It Means for the Season

Just when you think the Commanders’ roster shuffle might settle down, they pull another curveball — bringing wide receiver Robbie Chosen back onto the practice squad this Tuesday. It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster for Chosen this season, bouncing off the active roster last week as Terry McLaurin and Treylon Burks prepped to face the Broncos in Week 13. He initially snagged a spot on the practice squad at the end of September before earning his way back onto the 53-man roster by mid-November. Now, with one practice squad elevation left in his pocket, the Commanders might lean on him sooner than later — especially if Noah Brown’s groin and knee injuries keep him sidelined. Chosen’s had glimpses of action across three games, pulling in five catches for 53 yards — not earth-shattering, but enough to keep fans curious about what’s next. LEARN MORE

The Commanders re-signed wide receiver Robbie Chosen to the practice squad on Tuesday.

The team waived Chosen off the active roster last week, with Terry McLaurin and Treylon Burks ready to suit up in the Week 13 game against the Broncos. He signed with the practice squad on Sept. 30 before being signed to the 53-player roster on Nov. 11.

Chosen has one practice squad elevation remaining this year, a move the team could use this week if Noah Brown (groin/knee) is not ready to return from injured reserve.

Chosen has appeared in three games for the Commanders this season, totaling five catches for 53 yards.
