The Washington Commanders are elevating S Antonio Hamilton Sr from the practice squad for tomorrow’s home game against the Las Vegas Raiders. They released their injury report on Friday, and ruled three players out[QB Jayden Daniels(knee), TE John Bates(groin), WR Noah Brown(groin)]. They also placed three players on injured reserve after last Thursday’s loss to the Packers[RB Austin Ekeler(Achilles), DE Deatrich Wise Jr(quad), CB Jonathan Jones(hamstring)]. That led to more roster moves to bolster the depth, including signing former Washington Redskins second-round pick, DE Preston Smith.

Michael Deiter had been elevated for the last two games in a row, but didnt get the call up this week. He only has one elevation left this season before the team has to sign him to the 53-man roster. The offensive line will look different this week with Andrew Wylie reportedly getting the start at RG tomorrow over Nick Allegretti. Deiter isn’t needed with Allegretti freed up to play backup center. Backup tackles Trent Scott and George Fant have been inactive for the first two games, but one will likely be active as the team’s swing tackle, the role Wylie had been playing.

The Las Vegas Raiders announced several roster moves before today’s game. They have elevated WR Alex Bachman and CB Greedy Vance.
