When will Commanders get injured CB Trey Amos back?
Cornerback Trey Amos is eligible to return in Week 5. When will the Commanders get him back?
The Washington Commanders' defense struggled during their season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles, with the team allowing three passing touchdowns and suffering from coverage breakdowns. Cornerback Mike Sainristil faced significant criticism, but the team remains confident that he can recover. To bolster their defense, Washington signed veteran cornerback Isaac Yiadom from the practice squad.
Injured second-round pick Trey Amos, a projected starter, has been dealing with an ankle injury since returning to practice last month and is currently on injured reserve, meaning he will miss at least the first four games of the 2026 season. Head coach Dan Quinn stated that it is too early to determine Amos' return date, as he is still going through the return-to-play process.
Amos has had limited practice time, having missed much of training camp and offseason work. While he was spotted at practice on Thursday, there is no guarantee he will be ready for the Week 5 game against the New York Giants. The Commanders are optimistic about Amos' recovery and are not rushing to bring him back until he is fully healed.
