Commanders Activate Noah Brown From IR, Waive Chris Moore Ahead of Vikings Game

Overview

• The team activated Noah Brown from injured reserve, making the wideout available for Sunday’s game against the Vikings after Dan Quinn said he expected him to play despite limited practice work.
• Washington waived receiver Chris Moore in the corresponding move after he logged significant snaps earlier in the year due to injuries, contributing 10 catches for 192 yards and one touchdown.
• Brown has not played since Week 2 because of groin and knee injuries, and an attempted Week 7 return led to a setback before the club later opened his 21‑day practice window last week.
• Terry McLaurin returned in Week 13 and quarterback Jayden Daniels is set to be back for Week 14, restoring the team’s primary passing connection late in the season.
• Brown, a pending free agent who produced 453 yards and one touchdown on 35 receptions in 2024 for Washington, now has a chance to bolster his value down the stretch.
