Wise (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
It's an encouraging sign for Wise, who practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday and was ultimately sidelined Sunday against the Eagles with a high-ankle sprain. With the 285-pounder's return as a full participant Thursday, he'll likely continue serving as a rotational piece for Washington's defensive line Sunday against the Cowboys.

Wise (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest agains the Eagles, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wise suffered a high-ankle sprain during the team's Week 2 loss to the Lions and will miss at least one additional week. Rookie second-round pick Phidarian Mathis (knee) is already out for what looks like the entire season, so Efe Obada is in line for increased snaps moving forward.

Wise did not practice Wednesday and is nursing a high-ankle sprain, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wise's injury isn't considered serious, but it puts his status for Week 3 versus the Eagles in real jeopardy. Rookie second-round pick Phidarian Mathis (knee) is already out for what looks like the entire season, so Efe Obada could slot into a significant role as long as Wise remains sidelined.

Wise (ankle) was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Lions.
EDGE Analysis
Wise appears to have suffered unspecified ankle injury during the first half of Sunday's game, thus leaving his availability for Washington's Week 3 contest against Philadelphia up in the air. Wise was set to step up into a more prominent role at defensive tackle with rookie Phidarian Mathis (knee) likely to miss the remainder of the 2022 campaign while on injured reserve.

The Commanders will tender a contract to Wise (knee) on Sunday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wise finished the 2021 campaign on injured reserve due to a knee injury, but it's unlikely that the issue will impact his availability for offseason activities. He appeared in six games for Washington last year and racked up 10 tackles (five solo).

Wise (knee) was placed on IR on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Wise left early with the injury in Week 15 against the Eagles and had already been ruled out for Sunday against the Cowboys. With a minimum stay of three weeks on IR and only three weeks left in the season, It'll take Washington getting to the playoffs for Wise to see the field again this season.

Washington lists Wise (knee) as out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
EDGE Analysis
Wise wasn't able to practice this week after injuring his knee in Tuesday's 27-17 loss to the Eagles. He's typically handled a minor role in Washington's defensive-line rotation, playing fewer than half of the snaps in all but one of his six appearances.

EDGE Analysis
Wise recorded one tackle before exiting. Olubunmi Rotimi and Casey Toohill will likely take on the extra snaps that Wise's departure creates.

Wise was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Wise has been able to clear COVID protocols, despite testing positive for the virus Friday. With Washington's game against the Eagles being postponed until Tuesday, Wise should have no issue being ready to take the field.

Wise tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday and will be placed on Washington's reserve/COVID-19 list, Albert Breer of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wise was one of three Washington players to test positive for the virus Friday, joining starting quarterback Taylor Heinicke and practice squad running back Wendell Smallwood. If Wise is vaccinated, the NFL and NFLPA's new protocols for COVID-19 could theoretically allow him to gain clearance ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles, but that seems like an unlikely outcome. Wise's expected absence further decimates Washington's depleted defensive line, which now has seven members on the reserve/COVID-19 list and two more on injured reserve.
