Van Jefferson Signs with Commanders' Practice Squad

Van Jefferson, a veteran wide receiver, is returning to the Washington Commanders after being cut last week. He is expected to sign a practice squad contract with the team.

After becoming a free agent, Jefferson opted to stay in Washington instead of exploring other opportunities. In the 2025 season, he played a significant role in the Tennessee Titans' offense, starting seven games and recording 350 yards on 29 receptions, marking his second-highest reception total.

At 30 years old, Jefferson will provide experienced depth to the Commanders' practice squad. His role may expand to the active roster or as a gameday elevation, depending on the team's wide receiver situation as the season progresses.
