Signed from practice squad The Commanders signed Edmonds from the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday.

Impact Edmonds will provide depth in a Washington backfield that also includes Chris Rodriguez, Jeremy McNichols and Jacory Croskey-Merritt. He was previously elevated from the practice squad by the Commanders to play Week 11, a game against the Dolphins in which Edmonds did not play on offense but handled seven snaps on special teams.

Reverts to practice squad Edmonds reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Edmonds didn't see a snap on offense as he operated as the Commanders' RB4 behind Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Chris Rodriguez and Jeremy McNichols during Sunday's loss to the Dolphins. However, Edmonds did play seven snaps on special teams and returned for kickoffs for 93 yards. The Commanders are on a bye Week 12, but Edmonds could be elevated to the active roster for Week 13 against Denver on Sunday, Nov. 30 if the Commanders need a returner on kickoffs and punts.

Elevated for Week 11 The Commanders elevated Edmonds from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Zach Selby of the team's official site reports.

Impact Edmonds joined the Commanders' practice squad in mid-September, and he'll be available for Sunday's game against the Dolphins in Spain to provide additional backfield depth behind Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Chris Rodriguez and Jeremy McNichols. Edmonds missed the entire 2024 season due to a knee injury and last saw regular-season action in 2023 with the Buccaneers, when he turned 49 carries into 176 yards and caught 14 passes (on 17 targets) for 81 yards across 13 games.

Headed to Washington Edmonds signed with the Commanders' practice squad Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Impact Edmonds missed all of Tampa Bay's 2024 campaign due to a knee injury, but signing with the Commanders' practice squad Monday suggests he's moved past the issue. The 2018 fourth-round pick from Fordham last played with the Buccaneers in 2023, rushing 49 times for 176 yards while catching 14 passes for 81 yards across 13 regular-season contests. Edmonds' signing provides depth to a Washington backfield that just lost Austin Ekeler (Achilles) for the remainder of the season.

On IR with knee injury Edmonds was placed on season-ending injured reserve Monday due to a knee injury, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Impact The 28-year-old RB won't be designated for a return, meaning the only way he can play this season is if he reaches an injury settlement to be released by Tampa Bay. Edmonds hasn't practiced since the first week of training camp and recently had arthroscopic surgery on his injured knee.

Lands on IR The Buccaneers placed Edmonds (undisclosed) on injured reserve Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Impact Edmonds has been nursing an undisclosed injury throughout training camp, and it will now cost him the 2024 season. As a result, Bucky Irving, Sean Tucker and DJ Williams will be the remaining candidates for a depth role at running back behind Rachaad White. There is a scenario that could see Tampa activated off IR once his health is back up to par, but it remains to be seen if they would choose to do so.

AUGUST 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

IR stint expected Coach Todd Bowles indicated that Edmonds (undisclosed) is likely to begin the coming season on IR, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Impact Edmonds has been sidelined with an unspecified injury that has lingered, and it looks like he'll begin the 2024 campaign on IR, a scenario that would see him miss at least four games out of the gate. In his looming absence, Rachaad White, Bucky Irvingand Sean Tucker profile as Tampa Bay's top backfield options ahead of Week 1.

AUGUST 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not practicing Edmonds (undisclosed) isn't practicing Tuesday, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Impact Edmonds has been out with an undisclosed injury since the start of training camp, with his absence now nearing the one-month mark. Meanwhile, Bucky Irving worked ahead of Tampa Bay's other reserve running backs in both of the first two preseason games, putting him on track to enter Week 1 as the No. 2 RB behind returning starter Rachaad White. It's possible Edmonds won't have a spot on the roster even if he returns to healthy before cut-down day Aug. 27.

AUGUST 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not practicing yet Edmonds (undisclosed) has missed nearly two weeks of practice and won't participate Tuesday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Impact Edmonds has been nursing an undisclosed injury since the early days fo training camp. He was expected to compete with rookie Bucky Irving and others for backup roles behind incumbent starting running back Rachaad White, who played 78.1 percent of Tampa Bay's snaps on offense last season.

AUGUST 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with undisclosed injury Edmonds isn't practicing due to an undisclosed injury, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Impact Coach Todd Bowles declined to elaborate on the nature of the injury that has Edmonds sidelined for the start of training camp. The 28-year-old is expected to compete with rookie fourth-round pick Bucky Irving and others for backup roles behind starting running back Rachaad White.

Listed as non-participant Edmonds was held out of Wednesday's walk-through practice due to a toe injury.

Impact Edmonds had no fewer than five touches and no more than 10 in each of Tampa's last four games, including a 32-9 win over Philadelphia in the wild-card round. If he were to miss Sunday's game against Detroit, it might mean more playing time for starter Rachaad White and likely would leave Sean Tucker as the backup RB.

Breaks off big run Sunday Edmonds rushed four times for 27 yards and brought in his only target for minus-3 yards in the Buccaneers' 9-0 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

Impact Edmonds gained 21 of his yards on one carry, leading to his second-highest rushing yardage total of the season. The veteran back had a slightly smaller role than he likely envisioned when he signed to the Buccaneers this past offseason, finishing the 2023 campaign with 49 carries for 176 yards and a 14-81 line through the air across 13 games. However, Edmonds did have eight- and 10-carry tallies within the final five games of the season, and he should continue operating as the primary backup to Rachaad White during the postseason, albeit likely in the same low-volume role.

JANUARY 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to one carry in loss Edmonds rushed once for 11 yards and failed to bring in his only target in the Buccaneers' 27-20 loss to the Colts on Sunday.

Impact The reserve running back saw just five snaps on offense compare to 10 on special teams, underscoring how dominant a grip Rachaad White retains on the No. 1 role in Tampa Bay's backfield. Edmonds hasn't even been able to take advantage of the Buccaneers' frequent negative game scripts over their multi-week struggles, as White is a highly capable receiver in his own right and therefore often negates the need for Edmonds to be deployed on passing downs.

Five touches in return Edmonds (knee) rushed three times for five yards and brought in two of three targets for 16 yards in the Buccaneers' 24-18 loss to the Bills on Thursday.

Impact Edmonds made his return from a four-game absence due to a knee injury and was very busy relative to opportunity. The versatile back logged only eight snaps from scrimmage, so in that context, his five touches were encouraging. Edmonds could continue to see his role expand in coming games, with his next opportunity coming in a Week 9 road matchup against the Texans.

Activated to roster The Buccaneers activated Edmonds (knee) from injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact Edmonds was designated for return at the beginning of the week and listed as a full practice participant both Monday and Tuesday. He appears ready to play Thursday at Buffalo, though it isn't quite clear what his role will be given that starter Rachaad White has been better on passing downs than running downs and thus seems to have strengths that overlap with Edmonds'. Ke'Shawn Vaughn has been Tampa Bay's No. 2 back of late, mostly subbing in for White on early downs and taking a handful of carries per game.

Baker Mayfield, Bucs offense look to get back on track Thursday vs. Bills

Designated to return from IR The Bucs designated Edmonds (knee) to return from injured reserve Monday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Impact Edmonds went on injured reserve with a sprained MCL after Week 2 but has missed the required four games, and his designation to return opens his 21-day practice window. The 27-year-old hasn't been much of an on-field factor since leaving Arizona following the 2021 season. He recorded four carries for 20 yards and wasn't targeted in two games prior to being injured earlier this year. Edmonds may be on the cusp of returning to action Thursday in Buffalo after being listed as a full participant on Monday's injury report.
