CODY BARTON NEWS

Shines vs. Jets Barton recorded 10 total tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 10-9 win over the Jets.

Impact Barton stepped up and filled the role of the injured Alex Singleton (knee) during Sunday's win, posting double-digit stops en route to holding a high-powered Jets offense under 10 points. Without Singleton for the remainder of the year, Barton is expected to be the Broncos' top tackler and could become a valuable IDP piece moving forward.

Larger role with Singleton hurt Barton is set to take over a three-down role after fellow Broncos linebacker Alex Singleton (knee) suffered a season-ending ACL tear in Sunday's 26-7 win over the Buccaneers.

Impact Barton is also expected to take over relaying play calls to the rest of the defense, which was previously part of Singleton's responsibilities. Barton has 13 tackles (five solo) through three games, but he's well positioned to bolster his tackle totals moving forward.

Sees more snaps Week 2 Barton tallied seven tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 13-6 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Barton played just 21 defensive snaps in Week 1 against the Seahawks. He nearly doubled that total in Week 2 with 40 defensive snaps (along with 10 on special teams), and the 2019 third-round pick finished second on the Broncos in tackles Sunday behind fellow starting inside linebacker Alex Singleton. Barton has registered 100-plus tackles in each of the last two seasons, and he'll look to make it three years in a row as the Broncos travel to Tampa Bay to face the Buccaneers in Week 3.

Getting competition in camp Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette relays that Barton is battling Jonas Griffith for the starting inside linebacker job alongside Alex Singleton.

Impact Barton spent the first four years of his career in Seattle after the Seahawks drafted him in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft. He joined the Commanders for 2023, and across 13 regular-season games he recorded 121 tackles (67 solo), one pass defended, one interception and one fumble recovery. Barton signed a one-year deal with the Broncos in March, and while he has more experience and reps than Griffith, the two linebackers are expected to compete for a starting role in Denver's defense in training camp and in preseason games.

Designated to return from IR The Commanders designated Barton (ankle) to return from injured reserve Monday.

Impact Barton was injured in Week 7 and has missed the required four games on injured reserve. Prior to his injury, Barton had played every defensive snap for Washington. On the year, he's recorded 61 tackles (33 solo), one tackle for loss and one fumble recovery. Washington will have 21 days to activate Barton.

Headed to IR The Commanders placed Barton (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Barton sustained the ankle injury in the Commanders' 14-7 loss to the Giants in Week 7. He has been a crucial piece to their defensive scheme and had registered 60 tackles in the first six weeks of the season. With Barton set to miss at least the next four games, David Mayo will be a candidate for an increased workload in the former's absence. Barton will be eligible to return against the Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day.

Won't play vs. Eagles Barton (ankle) is listed as out for Sunday's game versus Philadelphia, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.

Impact Barton will miss a start for the first time this season as he tends to an ankle injury he sustained in Week 7 at the Giants. In his stead, David Mayo figures to see an expanded role at linebacker in Week 8.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Misses practice to start week Barton (ankle) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Impact Barton was suspected to have sustained a high-ankle sprain during Sunday's game at the Giants, so it comes as no surprise that he wasn't able to suit up for practice Wednesday. Unless he can return to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday, he'd be a good bet to sit out in Week 8 versus Philadelphia.

OCTOBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

High-ankle sprain feared Coach Ron Rivera said Monday that Barton is believed to have sustained a high-ankle sprain during Sunday's game at the Giants, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Barton is set to undergo an MRI on Monday, but at this point it appears a multi-game absence is likely. As long as he's out, David Mayo is a good bet to see increased playing time at linebacker.

Seen in walking boot Barton (ankle) was seen in a walking boot following Sunday's 14-7 loss to the Giants, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

Impact Barton recorded just one tackle before sustaining an ankle injury in the first half. The walking boot he was seen in following the game indicates the injury could be an issue going forward. David Mayo would presumably be in line to fill in at middle linebacker if need be.

OCTOBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Forced out Sunday Barton was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Giants with an ankle injury.

Impact Barton will not return after sustaining this ankle injury at some point during the first half. The 26-year-old logged just one tackle before exiting Sunday, though he accumulated 60 tackles over the first six weeks of the season. His next chance to suit up will come Sunday, Oct. 29 against Philadelphia. With Barton sidelined, David Mayo has stepped in at middle linebacker for Washington.
