Dan Quinn Delivers Positive Update on 2 Key Commanders
Commanders coach Dan Quinn shared positive updates on two key contributors as the team gears up for its preseason finale.
The Washington Commanders have received encouraging news regarding two key players who have been absent from practices recently. Head coach Dan Quinn announced that both Rachaad White and Tim Settle are on track for full participation in the team's upcoming activities.
White, who suffered a hamstring injury during a joint practice with the Miami Dolphins on August 12th, is now ready to return to individual drills. Settle, who had been sidelined with a calf strain sustained in practice around two weeks ago, is expected to complete a full return to practice. The coach expects Settle to play in the team's preseason finale against the Baltimore Ravens on Friday.
White, signed to a one-year deal in March, previously played with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he accumulated an impressive career total of 2,656 rushing yards, 1,450 receiving yards, and 25 touchdowns. Settle, signed to a three-year contract in March after his time with the Houston Texans, was a key contributor last season with 15 tackles, three pass breakups, and a sack.
Both players are anticipated to bolster the Commanders' roster, with White expected to share the backfield with second-year running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt. The return of these two players will be a significant boost for the Washington team as they aim to build upon their performance from the previous season. Washington will kick off the regular season on Sunday, September 13th against their division rival, the Philadelphia Eagles.
