Mitchell Tinsley: Staying in Washington
Tinsley signed with the Commanders' practice squad on Wednesday.

He signed with Washington in April of 2023 as an undrafted free agent, and he appeared in two regular-season games during his rookie year, playing three snaps on offense and another seven on special teams.

Commanders' Mitchell Tinsley: Won't play Week 16
Tinsley (coach's decision) is inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets.
The 24-year-old wideout has only appeared in one game for the Commanders this year, so it's no surprise that he'll be a healthy scratch Sunday. Tinsley's lone appearance came back in Week 2, when he played a total of three snaps (all on offense).

Commanders' Mitchell Tinsley: Inactive for Week 11
Tinsley (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's contest versus the Giants.
Tinsley made his NFL debut Week 2 versus Denver but hasn't played since then. Washington has a relatively healthy WR corps, and as long as that remains the case, Tinsley is unlikely to see game action.

Commanders' Mitchell Tinsley: Gets spot on initial roster
Tinsley has a spot on Washington's initial 53-man roster, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Tinsley survived cutdown day and the first round of waivers, riding a strong preseason (6-129-1) to a spot on the team despite going undrafted in April. He's on the old side for a rookie, turning 24 in September, and is more likely to get snaps on special teams than offense this season.

Mitchell Tinsley: Expected to sign with Washington
Washington is expected to sign Tinsley as an undrafted free agent, Bryan Manning of USA Today reports.
After exploding for 87 receptions, 1,402 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns for Western Kentucky in 2021, Tinsley opted to transfer to Penn State. In his lone campaign for the Nittany Lions, the 6-foot-1 wideout secured 51 passes for 577 yards and five scores. The lack of sizable production against elevated competition may have caused Tinsley to go undrafted, but he'll still get a chance to compete for a roster spot during training camp. However, with Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, Curtis Samuel and Dyami Brown locked into the top wideout spots, Tinsley likely will have to settle for a practice-squad spot to begin his professional career.
