Hayden was released by the Commanders on Friday. Hayden was with Jacksonville from 2018-2020, appearing in 30 games. However, he didn't make an NFL roster to start the 2021 campaign. He was signed to Washington's practice squad in December, but he appeared in just one game for the Commanders -- Week 16 against Dallas -- and played 11 total snaps (four defensive).

Hayden signed with Washington's practice squad Saturday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports. Hayden spent the last three seasons with Jacksonville, having appeared in 30 games. Washington is suffering numerous issues in its secondary, most notably to starting corner Kendall Fuller (illness), who is on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Hayden could be added to the active roster in time for Washington's game against the Eagles on Tuesday, depending on who will and won't be available.

Coach Doug Marrone said Monday that Hayden (knee) will miss "considerable time," Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. While it's not a clear timeline, it's safe to assume that Hayden won't play Week 12 against the Browns, and he could be placed on IR as well. It's yet another hit to the Jaguars' secondary that is already without rookie first-rounder CJ Henderson (groin) for at least two more games. Moving forward, Sidney Jones (Achilles) is in the mix to be the No. 1 cornerback along with Tre Herndon.

Hayden (hamstring) was activated from injured reserve Saturday. The 30-year-old landed on injured reserve in early October with the hamstring issue, but he's back in time for Week 11. Hayden should play a significant role in the secondary, especially with CJ Henderson (groin) recently put on injured reserve.

The Jaguars officially designated Hayden (hamstring) to return from injured reserve Thursday, John Reid reports. The transaction kicks off a 21-day window wherein the Jaguars can evaluate Hayden at practice without him counting against the 53-man roster. The veteran cornerback can be fully reinstated to the active roster at any point within that span, though a corresponding player would have to be cut.
