Cager reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Cager was brought up by the Commanders to add depth at tight end due to the absence of Colson Yankoff (ankle), though the former played just one snap on offense during Saturday's loss to the Eagles. It was Cager's first appearance of the 2025 regular season, and he's eligible to be elevated from the practice squad twice more this season.

The Commanders elevated Cager from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Saturday's game against the Eagles, Zach Selby of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cager draws his first elevation of the 2025 season for a Saturday divisional matchup. The tight end was likely elevated due to the absence of Colson Yankoff (ankle), and he will most likely fulfill Yankoff's role as a supplementary blocker for the Commanders' offense and special teams.

The Commanders signed Cager to a reserve/future contract Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Cager's futures deal will allow him to stick with Washington during the offseason, but it prohibits him from contributing during the team's playoff run. He spent time on the Giants' practice squad in 2024 but didn't suit up for any regular-season games.
