Former NFL cornerback D.J. Hayden and 5 others killed in crash in downtown Houston

Signs with practice squad Hayden signed with the Washington practice squad Saturday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

Impact Hayden spent the last three seasons with Jacksonville, having appeared in 30 games. Washington is suffering numerous ailments in their secondary, most notably to starting corner Kendall Fuller (illness), who is on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Hayden could be added to the active roster in time for Washington's game against the Eagles on Tuesday, depending on who will and won't be available.

Returns to injury reserve Hayden (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

Impact The 30-year-old was activated from injured reserve Saturday after missing five game with a hamstring injury, and he played 57 defensive snaps Sunday before going down with the injury. Hayden isn't eligible to return from the shelf due to his previous stint on injured reserve this season, so he'll have to look toward the 2021 campaign as he's set to hit free agency.

Could miss multiple games Coach Doug Marrone said Monday that Hayden (knee) will miss "considerable time," Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Impact While it's not a clear timeline, it's safe to assume that Hayden won't play Week 12 against the Browns, and he could be placed on IR as well. It's yet another hit to the Jaguars' secondary that is already without rookie first-rounder CJ Henderson (groin) for at least two more games. Moving forward, Sidney Jones (Achilles) is in the mix to be the No. 1 cornerback along with Tre Herndon.

Leaves with knee injury Hayden exited Sunday's game against the Steelers with a knee injury.

Impact The 30-year-old was activated from injured reserve Saturday and was seeing his first game action since Week 4, but he suffered the knee injury during the second half. Hayden was labeled questionable to return and didn't return to the field in the closing stages of the fourth quarter with the Jaguars losing 27-3.

Back from injured reserve Hayden (hamstring) was activated from injured reserve Saturday.

Impact The 30-year-old landed on injured reserve in early October with the hamstring issue, but he's back in time for Week 11. Hayden should play a significant role in the secondary, especially with CJ Henderson (groin) recently put on injured reserve.

Designated for return The Jaguars officially designated Hayden (hamstring) to return from injured reserve Thursday, John Reid reports.

Impact The transaction kicks off a 21-day window wherein the Jaguars can evaluate Hayden at practice without him counting against the 53-man roster. The veteran cornerback can be fully reinstated to the active roster at any point within that span, though a corresponding player would have to be cut.

Moved to injured reserve Hayden (hamstring) was placed on IR on Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.

Impact Hayden will need to miss at least three weeks before being eligible to return from IR, so the soonest he could suit up again will be in Week 8 against the Chargers following Jacksonville's Week 7 bye. Chris Claybrooks or Sidney Jones are the likeliest candidates to take over Hayden's role as the nickel cornerback.

OCTOBER 7, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Hayden was forced out of Sunday's 33-25 loss to the Bengals due to a hamstring injury, and it looks like he could have to miss Week 5 as well. CJ Henderson (shoulder) was also injured versus Cincinnati, so Jacksonville could have to suit up in Houston with a depleted secondary.
