Bada (Achilles) reverted to IR on Wednesday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Bada hurt his Achilles during the Lions' preseason opener versus the Giants and wasn't able to return to action during the exhibition slate. He was waived with an injury designation Tuesday and subsequently cleared waivers. Bada will miss the entire 2024 campaign unless he reaches an injury settlement with Detroit.

Bada (Achilles) was waived with an injury designation by the Lions on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Bada suffered the injury in Detroit's preseason opener against the Giants on Aug. 8 and has remained sidelined since. The injury certainly derailed the 29-year-old's chances of making the team out of camp. He should revert to IR once he clears waivers.

Bada suffered an Achilles injury in Thursday night's preseason loss to the Giants, Justin Rogers of DetroitFootball.net reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bada couldn't put any weight on his leg after the injury, and Rogers suspects it's a long-term issue. Bada appeared in two games for the Commanders in 2022 before spending all of last season on injured reserve with an arm injury. He signed with the Lions last month and was trying to compete for a roster spot.

Bada (arm) signed with the Lions on Thursday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The defensive tackle needed surgery to repair a torn triceps during training camp with Washington last year. The 29-year-old from the NFL's International Pathway Program spent the last four seasons with Washington but only appeared in two games.

Bada had surgery recently to repair his torn triceps, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bada suffered the injury during practice Aug. 3 and was placed on injured reserve last Thursday, and he'll miss the entirety of the 2023 campaign unless he reaches an injury settlement with the team. Even if that happens, his recovery time will likely make it difficult for him to take the field before the season is over.

Bada (tricep) was placed on IR by the Commanders on Thursday, Zach Selby of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The defensive tackle suffered a torn tricep during practice Wednesday. Bada spent the past three seasons on Washington's practice squad and has two career tackles. IR rules prevent a player from returning this season if he's put on the list before cut-down day, so the fourth-year pro would need to get waived or reach an injury settlement to come back in 2023.

Bada suffered a torn triceps during practice Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bada will continue to be evaluated, but if he did indeed suffer a torn triceps, he's likely looking at an extended amount of time out of action. He'll now turn his focus to getting healthy.

The Football Team restored Bada (undisclosed) from the practice squad COVID-19 list Wednesday and signed him to a reserve/future contract, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bada is still looking for a chance to make his NFL debut, but after spending the last two seasons on Washington's practice squad, he has earned another chance to continue his development.

Bada was placed on the practice squad COVID-19 list Friday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bada has spent both of the last two seasons on Washington's practice squad and has yet to be elevated to the active roster for game action. He will have to clear league protocols prior to being activated and returning to the practice field.
