The Chiefs signed Wiley on Tuesday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wiley gives Kansas City another body in the backfield for the remainder of camp and the preseason, but he's not expected to compete for a 53-man roster spot, with Isiah Pacheco, Kareem Hunt, Elijah Mitchell and rookie Brashard Smith seemingly solidified as the Chiefs' running backs.

The Commanders signed Wiley to a reserve/future contract Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Wiley spent time on Washington's practice squad during the 2024 campaign, though the undrafted rookie didn't ultimately suit up for a single regular-season or playoff game with the team. Now, Wiley will get a chance to continue his development with the Commanders for a second consecutive offseason.

Wiley signed with the Commanders' practice squad Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Wiley signed with Washington in April as an undrafted free agent. The Arizona product missed OTAs due to a thumb injury he sustained during the Senior Bowl, but he was able to participate in training camp. Across three preseason games, Wiley turned 17 carries into 67 yards and two touchdowns while adding six catches for 37 yards. Wiley will begin the 2024 season on the Commanders' taxi squad, and he could be elevated to the active roster should Brian Robinson, Austin Ekeler or Jeremy McNichols miss time.

Wiley was waived by the Commanders on Tuesday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wiley missed time in the spring due to a thumb injury after signing with Washington as an undrafted free agent. However, the Arizona product was healthy by training camp, but he couldn't lock down a role in the team's offense for the 2024 campaign.

Wiley (thumb) was spotted working out during Wednesday's mandatory minicamp session, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wiley injured his thumb during this year's Senior Bowl, but with his participation in Washington's mandatory minicamp, it seems as if he's moved past the issue. The 23-year-old running back out of Arizona was picked up by the Commanders after going undrafted, and he likely has an outside chance at making the team's final roster.
