Washington Commanders Roster Moves: Colson Yankoff is back!
The Washington Commanders are in Detroit to play the Lions tonight at 8pm. It’s been a pretty quiet, and healthy, week for the Commanders as they prepared for their first divisional playoff game since 2006. They only ruled one player out for tonight’s game, and just announced their practice squad elevations and roster moves.
Rookie LB Jordan Magee was ruled out after aggravating his hamstring injury. He was placed on injured reserve today. That gives Washington an open roster spot which was used to activate TE Colson Yankoff from IR. His 21-day practice window was opened last Wednesday, and he was a full participant in every practice over the last two weeks.
Washington also elevated CB Kevon Seymour and DE Andre Jones Jr from the practice squad for tonight’s playoff game. Seymour has been used exclusively on special teams this season. Andre Jones Jr was elevated twice during the season, and played 17 snaps on defense.
We have made the following roster moves:
— Placed LB Jordan Magee on the Reserve/Injured List
— Activated TE Colson Yankoff from the Reserve/Injured List and removed him from the injury report
— Elevated DE Andre Jones Jr. and CB Kevon Seymour from the practice squad pic.twitter.com/1z96W9N2Xb— Washington Commanders (@Commanders) January 18, 2025

ARLINGTON, Va. — The Washington Capitals re-signed defenseman Timothy Liljegren to a two-year contract worth $6.5 million.
General manager Chris Patrick announced the deal Wednesday. Liljegren will count $3.25 million against the salary cap next season and in 2027-28.
The right-handed-shooting Swede played just four games for the Capitals after they acquired him from San Jose at the trade deadline in early March. He could have a bigger role next season as part of a blue line that is not expected to have John Carlson back after Washington sent the pending free agent to Anaheim on the eve of the deadline.
Now 27, Liljegren has 94 points in 324 regular season and playoff games in the NHL, with the vast majority of that time spent with Toronto.
The biggest question of the offseason for Patrick and the front office is the status of longtime captain, face of the franchise and career goal-scoring record holder Alex Ovechkin, who has not yet declared whether he’ll return for a 22nd season at age 41.
