Washington signed Edwards to the practice squad Wednesday, Commanders writer Ben Standig reports.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards spent the preseason with the Jets and flashed potential. He fell short of a roster spot in a crowded backfield, but he'll have a new opportunity with the Commanders, who have a less settled running back depth chart.

Edwards was waived Tuesday, Randy Lange and Eric Allen of the Jets' official site report.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards had a productive preseason, but the rookie out of Michigan failed to win a roster spot in a Jets backfield that consists of Breece Hall, Braelon Allen, Isaiah Davis (ankle) and Kene Nwangwu heading into the regular season. Assuming Edwards passes through waivers unclaimed, he's likely to end up on the Jets' practice squad.

Edwards rushed nine times for 42 yards and caught his only target for 21 yards in Saturday's 30-10 preseason win over the Packers.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards didn't log a touch until halfway through the third quarter but played well once he got into the game. The rookie running back is a contender to land on the Jets' practice squad after signing with the team in April as an undrafted free agent out of Michigan, but he's unlikely to earn a roster spot over Breece Hall, Braelon Allen, Isaiah Daivs (ankle) or Kene Nwangwu (calf), the last two of which got banged up Saturday with injuries that are expected to be minor.
