It’s gameday and the Washington Commanders are set to face the Cincinnati Bengals on the Week 3 edition of Monday Night Football.
Ahead of Monday night, the Commanders elevated two players from the practice squad: Cornerback Bobby Price and defensive end Andre Jones Jr.
Price, 26, was signed to the practice squad after the initial 53-man roster was finalized. The Commanders elevated Price to the gameday roster before last week’s game against the New York Giants. He did not play on defense, but did participate in eight snaps on specials teams.
Price’s ascension gives Washington depth, with cornerback Emmanuel Forbes likely out another week.
Jones, a seventh-round pick in 2023, will see his first action of the season. Starting defensive end Clelin Ferrell, who also leads the Commanders in sacks (two), is out with a knee injury.
Former first-round pick Jamin Davis should see increased snaps at edge rusher against the Bengals after not playing last week.
