Even though they’re not advancing particularly swiftly, the Commanders have decided to add Jake Fromm for depth with two games left in the season.
The quarterback was elevated by the NFC team from their practice squad, where he had played for most of the season, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.. A hamstring injury has Brissett labeled as questionable before their game against the 49ers in San Francisco.
Sam Howell is expected to start Sunday against the Niners after being benched in favor of Brissett in Week 16.
In a thrilling comeback game on Sunday, the latter nearly overcame the New York Jets, but the Commanders finally lost 28–30.Fromm, meanwhile, has not played a snap in the last two years and has struggled in the NFL since being selected in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
Having returned to the active roster, he will be looking to play.
