Doesn't play as rookie Montez finished his rookie season without appearing in a game.

Impact The undrafted rookie out of Colorado spent most of the year on Washington's practice squad, eventually bumping up to the active roster for Weeks 15-17 and the wild-card round of the playoffs. Montez never actually took a snap, and he'll likely need to compete for a reserve QB role in the offseason.

JANUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Promoted to active roster Montez was promoted to Washington's active roster Friday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Montez's promotion to the active roster comes on the heels of Dwayne Haskins' release, as starter Alex Smith (calf) is considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Relegated to practice squad Montez reverted to Washington's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Montez was active for Washington's Week 16 loss to the Panthers, but he never reached the field. With Dwayne Haskins having been waived by the team on Monday following a three-turnover outing against Carolina, Montez may very well receive another call-up for Washington's Week 17 road trip to Philadelphia.

Bumps to active roster Washington elevated Montez to the active roster Saturday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Alex Smith (calf) is expected to start if he's healthy, but he's still considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers. Dwayne Haskins is slated to start if Smith can't go. Montez and Taylor Heinicke are potential backups Sunday.

Demoted to practice squad Montez reverted to Washington's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact The Colorado product was active for a Week 15 tilt against the Seahawks, but he ultimately didn't get an opportunity under center. Dwayne Haskins remained the quarterback throughout, barring Montez from a potential NFL debut during a 20-15 defeat.

Promoted to active roster Washington elevated Montez from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Montez joined Washington back in April and has spent the entire regular season on the team's practice squad. Taylor Heinicke also bumped from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, so both he and Montez will be available as reserve options behind Dwayne Haskins during Sunday's game against Seattle.

Joins Washington's practice squad Washington signed Montez to the practice squad Sunday, Kyle Stackpole of the team's official site reports.

Impact Montez was let go as a product of final roster cuts Saturday, but the undrafted rookie will get a chance to continue his development with Washington. He's an unlikely candidate to see any action this season, however, with all of Dwayne Haskins, Kyle Allen and Alex Smith (leg) on the active roster.

Let go by Washington Washington waived Montez on Saturday, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

Impact The undrafted rookie out of Colorado never had a real shot at making the team, with Dwayne Haskins, Kyle Allen and Alex Smith (leg) all expected to secure spots on the active roster. If he goes unclaimed on waivers, Montez could be a candidate to resurface on Washington's practice squad.

Physical set for Monday Smith (leg) is scheduled to have his physical with Washington's team doctors Monday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

Impact According to Stephania Bell of ESPN, Smith has already been cleared by his surgical team for full football activity, so it looks like he will be ready to move ahead in that process if he passes his physical. The news is pretty remarkable considering how serious of an injury he sustained back in Week 11 of 2018. He suffered a compound fracture of his right tibia and a fractured right fibula, which resulted in him at one point deliberating whether or not to have his leg amputated due to the severity of an ensuing infection. The veteran signal-caller has remained intent on playing again, but at 36 years old and coming off such a serious injury, it remains unclear if that will be a possibility. Second-year quarterback Dwayne Haskins is the presumed starter going into the season at this point, while Kyle Allen and Steven Montez are both on the depth chart as well.
