Commanders' Clelin Ferrell: Will return to Washington
Rotowire
The Commanders are re-signing Ferrell to a one-year contract, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Ferrell started the first 10 games in which he played with Washington last season before working in a rotational role over the team's final four regular-season contests. He did see more defensive snaps in the playoffs, but after recording 1.0 sacks in each of his first two contests of the campaign, he had only 1.5 more sacks over his final 15 games (including the postseason). The Commanders signed fellow defensive end Deatrich Wise on Wednesday, so the club should have good depth along its defensive line in 2025.

Commanders' Clelin Ferrell: Ends up in rotational role in 2024
Rotowire
Ferrell finished the 2024 regular season with 26 tackles (11 solo), including 3.5 sacks, along with a forced fumble over 14 contests.
Following four seasons with the Raiders and one with San Francisco, Ferrell joined Washington on a one-year contract last March. The 2019 first-round draft selection started off with regular defensive playing time, but he missed Weeks 3-5 with a knee injury. Upon Ferrell's return, he gradually downgraded to a lesser role, and he didn't log more than 32 percent of the Commanders' defensive snaps in any game after Week 12. Ferrell did see slightly more work in the playoffs, but given his modest production overall, it wouldn't be surprising if Washington chooses not to explore re-signing the soon-to-be free agent.

Ferrell has missed the last three games for the Commanders with a lingering knee injury, but he could make his return this week as he inches towards a full practice.

Rotowire
Ferrell (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Bengals, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
Ferrell popped up on the injury report Thursday with a knee injury. While he was able to practice in a limited capacity Friday, the issue is severe enough that the 2019 first-round pick will be held out for Monday's contest, and his next chance of suiting up will be Week 4 against the Cardinals. Jamin Davis and Javontae Jean-Baptiste are candidates to fill in for Ferrell as the starting defensive end opposite Dorance Armstrong (chest) for Monday's game.
