Robert Henry: Headed to Commanders' practice squad
Rotowire
Washington signed Henry to its practice squad Monday, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
Henry had a decently productive preseason as a rusher (26 carries for 105 yards and a touchdown), but it wasn't enough to earn him a spot on the Commanders' initial 53-man roster, and now he'll start the new campaign on the practice squad. If free-agent acquisition Rachaad White (hamstring) is unable to play in Week 1, Henry could find himself on the short list for elevations to the active roster.

Robert Henry: Cut loose by Washington

Henry was waived by the Commanders on Sunday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Henry signed with Washington as an undrafted free agent in April, and he turned 26 carries into 105 yards and a touchdown while reeling in two of three targets for six yards over three preseason games. If the running back goes unclaimed on waivers, there's a strong chance he sticks around as a member of the Commanders' practice squad.

Henry is expected to sign with Washington as an undrafted free agent, Ben Standig of Big 100 Washington D.C. reports.
Henry spent four years at Texas San Antonio, rushing for a career-best 1,045 yards and nine touchdowns on 151 carries during the 2025 campaign. He will face an uphill battle to earn a roster spot but could be a practice squad candidate.
