Crowder (calf) played 21 of the Commanders' 78 snaps on offense and recorded three receptions for 27 yards on three targets in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Saints.

EDGE Analysis

Crowder made his return from injured reserve in Week 15, after he had missed the Commanders' previous 10 games with a calf injury. Prior to getting hurt, Crowder didn't have much of a role on offense over Washington's first two games of the season, but the loss of Noah Brown (kidney) opened up some opportunities in the slot for the veteran. Crowder still finished fourth among Commanders receivers in snaps, and he could drop down another spot in the pecking order once waiver pickup K.J. Osborn gets up to speed with the offense.

Crowder (calf) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Saints.

EDGE Analysis

The wide receiver and punt returner was activated from injured reserve Saturday. Crowder has missed every game since Week 3 due to the injury. He likely will serve as Washington's punt returner Sunday.

Crowder (calf) has been activated from injured reserve Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports, but he remains questionable to suit up.

EDGE Analysis

Crowder hasn't played since Week 3 due to a calf injury, but he's now in line to return to the gridiron. The 31-year-old wideout will likely serve as the Commanders' top punt returner Sunday, assuming he's active.

Crowder (calf) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints.

EDGE Analysis

Crowder has missed the Commanders' last 10 games due to a calf injury, but after practicing in full throughout the week, he's trending toward playing in Sunday's contest. However, the 31-year-old wide receiver has yet to be added back to the active roster, a move that must occur for him to suit up Sunday. If he's activated Saturday, Crowder likely will serve as the Commanders' top punt returner and also might get a few snaps on offense.

Crowder (calf) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

Crowder was placed on injured reserve in early October and has missed the Commanders' last 10 games due to a calf injury. However, he was designated to return Monday and has already practiced in full, suggesting he's nearly recovered from the issue. Despite Wednesday's full session, the veteran wideout must still be added to Washington's active roster in order to play in Week 15, when the Commanders travel to New Orleans.

Crowder (calf) was designated to return from IR on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Crowder hasn't played since Week 3 due to his calf issue, but he may finally be nearing a return. He'll now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before having to be placed on the 53-man roster or reverting to IR. However, even if he's eventually activated, the veteran wideout won't likely have much of a role in the Commanders' offense and has only played 12 offensive snaps across two games this season.

Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said Tuesday that Crowder (calf) has not been designated to return from injured reserve, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

EDGE Analysis

Crowder has spent the Commanders' last seven games on the sideline due to a lingering calf issue, and though he's been eligible to resume practicing for a few weeks, he hasn't made enough progress in his recovery for the team to open his 21-day evaluation window. At this stage, Crowder looks safe to rule out for Thursday's game against the Eagles, and a return to action Week 12 versus the Cowboys might be a stretch, too.

Crowder (calf) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Crowder suffered the injury in Sunday's win over the Cardinals and will have to miss the Commanders' next four games. The veteran wideout has had a minimal role in the offense when healthy, but his absence could lead to a couple of extra opportunities for Dyami Brown.

Crowder (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Arizona, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran slot wideout has played a total of 12 offensive snaps through two appearances with Washington. He was the Commanders' WR5 last Monday night in Cincinnati, playing behind Terry McLaurin, Luke McCaffrey, Noah Brown and Dyami Brown.

Crowder (calf) was listed as a DNP for Thursday's practice session.

EDGE Analysis

Crowder has logged DNPs in back-to-back practices to open the week, though he was spotted doing individual drills during Thursday's session, per Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. If he's able to practice Friday, even in a limited capacity, that would give Crowder a shot at playing Sunday against the Cardinals.
