Washington Commanders’ veteran wide receiver Noah Brown has battled a nagging knee injury since mandatory minicamp and a groin injury sustained in Week 2 against the Green Bay Packers. As a result, he has missed the last four weeks of practice and games. Meanwhile, Chris Moore, Luke McCaffrey, and Jaylin Lane have each seen their roles increase, with Brown sidelined.

According to Adam Schefter, the Commanders have placed Noah Brown on injured reserve, sidelining him for at least the next four games.

After being medically cleared to play, the Tennessee Titans waived Burks from injured reserve last week and later cleared waivers, allowing him to sign with any team.
