Commanders elevated two key players from practice squad before facing Cowboys
The Commanders elevated recently re-signed DL Ricky Barber and LB ALe Kaho from the practice squad for Week 2 vs. Dallas
The Washington Commanders made several roster moves ahead of their season game against the Dallas Cowboys. The team signed defensive lineman Ricky Barber to the practice squad on Saturday and immediately elevated him to the active roster for Sunday’s match. In addition, linebacker Ale Kaho was also elevated from the practice squad, providing depth to the position group after Frankie Luvu's groin injury and Jordan Magee's placement on injured reserve. The Commanders released TE Chig Okonkwo (hamstring) and Luvu in their injury report.
Barber had been on the 53-man roster until Thursday, when he was released to make space for veteran practice-squad cornerback Isaac Yiadom. His elevation to the active roster offers insurance if Javon Kinlaw (back) is unable to play, and he is currently listed as questionable after participating in Thursday's practices.
