Commanders Release Robbie Chosen as Noah Brown Nears Return

ASHBURN, VA – The Washington Commanders released veteran wide receiver Robbie Chosen on Friday, clearing a roster spot as Noah Brown appears poised to return from injured reserve. Chosen, 32, appeared in three games for the Commanders this season, recording five receptions for 53 yards. His most productive outing came against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 3, where he hauled in all four of his targets for 36 yards.

The move signals that Brown, who along with Terry McLaurin, fully participated in Thursday’s practice. Other receivers like Jaylin Lane (hip) and Treylon Burkes (finger) were limited in practice. Chris Moore (shoulder) was a full participant.

The Commanders’ receiving corps has been plagued by injuries this season. Wednesday marked the first time since Week 2 that McLaurin, Curtis Samuel, and Brown were all full participants in practice together. The team’s struggles at the position have forced quarterback Marcus Mariota to work with a patchwork of players.

The return of a healthier receiving group could provide a boost to the Commanders’ offense as they enter the final stretch of the season. However, with the team unlikely to achieve a winning record, some fans are divided on whether prioritizing player health and potential wins is beneficial, given the potential impact on the team’s draft position. Washington currently holds the No. 7 overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft.

Chosen, who entered the league in 2016 as Robbie Anderson, has had a journeyman career, playing for the New York Jets, Carolina Panthers, Arizona Cardinals, and Miami Dolphins before joining the Commanders’ practice squad on October 1st. He has a career total of 385 receptions for 5,140 yards and 30 touchdowns.
