Commanders' Zane Gonzalez: Dealing with foot injury
Zane Gonzalez was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a foot injury.Even though he benefited from a Week 14 bye, Gonzalez may still be tending to an injury that stems from the Washington Commanders' last game Dec. 1 against the Titans. His activity at practices Thursday and Friday should provide more insight with regard to Gonzalez's chances of being available for Sunday's matchup against the Saints. Gonzalez has served as Washington's placekicker for the past three games in place of the injured Austin Seibert (groin), connecting on three of his five field-goal attempts while going 10-for-10 on extra-point tries.

Commanders' Zane Gonzalez: Signs to active roster
The Washington Commanders signed Zane Gonzalez to their active roster Monday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.The 29-year-old was elevated to the Commanders' active roster to kick in three of their last four games, with Austin Seibert sidelined due to groin and hip injuries. Seibert was placed on injured reserve Nov. 26 and is eligible to return for Washington's Week 18 matchup against the Cowboys at the earliest. Gonzalez's signing Monday suggests he'll remain the Commanders' kicker until Seibert is back from injury. Gonzalez struggled in Washington's blowout win over the Titans on Sunday, missing both of his field-goal attempts. However, he's converted all 10 of his extra-point tries over three games and has the support of head coach Dan Quinn, who said he's "pleased with what they've seen over the last month" regarding Gonzalez's performance.

Commanders' Zane Gonzalez: Elevated again for Week 13
The Washington Commanders elevated Zane Gonzalez from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's matchup versus Tennessee.This move became a foregone conclusion when Austin Seibert was placed on injured reserve Friday due to a groin injury. Gonzalez did well serving as the Commanders' kicker in Weeks 10 and 11, making all three of his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries. Seibert came back for Week 12 but struggled against Dallas and subsequently landed on IR, opening the door for Gonzalez to reprise his role as the team's kicker. He's now been elevated three times on the campaign, so Washington will need to sign Gonzalez to its active roster in order for him to continue kicking on game day beyond this week.
