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. 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.

Cager was cut from the Commanders' practice squad Wednesday. The 28-year-old tight end from Georgia inked a deal to return to the Commanders' practice squad after failing to make the initial 53-man roster in late August. However, it now appears Washington has decided to move in another direction. Cager's most recent in-game NFL action came with the Giants in 2023, when he made 11 appearances and caught four of five targets for 36 yards and a touchdown.

The Commanders signed Cager to the practice squad Wednesday, Zach Selby of the team's official site reports. Cager wasn't able to make the Commanders' 53-man roster, but he'll stay in the organization to provide tight end depth behind Zach Ertz, John Bates, Ben Sinnott and Colson Yankoff. Cager logged four catches (on six targets) for 54 yards across three preseason games.

Cager was cut by the Commanders on Tuesday, Zach Selby of the team's official website reports. Cager recorded four catches for 54 yards while appearing in two preseason games with Washington.
