Everett is slated to start at free safety Sunday against the Giants in place of Troy Apke, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Everett replaced Apke midway through a Week 5 loss to the Rams, and he'll retain the starting job in Week 6. The 28-year-old was a starter for the team in 2017 but has filled into a reserve role since, but Washington hopes he'll be an immediate boost to a defense that ranks 21st in points against this year.

Everett (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Everett was already ruled out for Sunday's game at Green Bay, but he'll now be sidelined for the rest of the season. The special teams specialist inked a three-year, $9.15 million extension in November, but he was limited to only seven games in 2019.

Interim coach Bill Callahan said Friday that Everett (shoulder) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers, Craig Hoffman of 106.7 The Fan Washington reports.
EDGE Analysis
Everett is nursing a shoulder injury sustained during Week 13's win over the Panthers. As long as he's unable to play, Troy Apke and Jeremy Reaves stand to play expanded depth roles in Washington's secondary.

EDGE Analysis
Everett increased his practice activity each day during the week and won't have an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Panthers. He'll provide depth in Washington's secondary.

Everett (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Everett wasn't able to practice Wednesday, so Thursday's limited session represents tangible progress in his recovery. The depth safety and special-teams ace will need to fully clear the league's concussion protocol -- which includes meeting with an independent neurologist -- before retaking the field.

Everett (concussion) did not practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Everett will now need to fully clear the league's protocol for head injuries before retaking the field. As long as the special-teams ace remains sidelined, Jeremy Reaves and Troy Apke will be candidates to play expanded depth roles.

Everett was forced out of Sunday's game against the Lions with a head injury.
EDGE Analysis
Everett spent time on the sidelines earlier in this contest due to a neck injury. It's unlikely the safety returns to action due to the nature of this issue, leaving Troy Apke as the only reserve safety behind Montae Nicholson and Landon Collins.

Everett (neck) was cleared to return to Sunday's game against the Lions, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Everett was checked out during halftime, and he's been deemed good to go. This is the safety's first game since Week 5. He's mainly used on special teams while filling a depth role at safety behind starters Landon Collins and Montae Nicholson.

Everett (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Lions.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear how Everett suffered the injury, but he was forced to leave the game in the second quarter. It's likely that the Texas A&M product will wait until halftime before attempting to return. As long as he's sidelined, however, Troy Apke is in line to see a slight bump in snaps.

Everett (ankle) was listed as a full participant during Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Everett has been out since Week 5 with an ankle injury, but his return to practice suggests he could be back in Washington's lineup Sunday against the Lions. If he ultimately receives the green light to play, Everett's role figures to be limited to special teams.
