The Sporting News

Washington is reportedly expected to add free-agent running back Austin Ekeler to its 53-man roster, pending a physical. It would reunite the Commanders with Ekeler after his Achilles recovery; no Washington runner topped 36 yards in the Week 3 win.

Through three games, Jacory Croskey-Merritt had 142 rushing yards on 47 carries, while Rachaad White had 100 on 22.

Ekeler played only two games last season, rushing for 43 yards on 14 attempts and catching five of seven targets for 38 yards. His career totals are 4,765 rushing yards and 4,288 receiving yards.
