Commanders sign former Lions running back
The Commanders are adding a veteran running back with Jeremy McNichols currently sidelined due to injury.
The Washington Commanders have added veteran running back Craig Reynolds to their roster, as reported by ESPN's John Keim on Monday. Reynolds, a former undrafted free agent out of Kutztown University, signed with the Commanders as an undrafted free agent in 2019. He spent most of the 2019 season on the Washington practice squad and appeared in one game, before being waived and released in November 2019.
He then went on to play with the Atlanta Falcons and Jacksonville Jaguars before joining the Detroit Lions in 2021, where he spent the next five seasons. Reynolds has made 60 appearances in his career, rushing for 658 yards and scoring one touchdown. He has also caught 25 passes for 258 yards. The addition of Reynolds provides Washington with a veteran who is familiar with the team's offense, potentially helping them navigate the preseason.
With Jeremy McNichols battling injuries, Reynolds' experience could prove valuable as the Commanders prepare for their next game against Detroit on Saturday.
