Wise went down with an apparent lower-body injury on an extra-point attempt by the Packers in the second quarter, and it's now confirmed he's dealing with a quad issue. The 31-year-old required a cart to get to the locker room, so he may be looking at an extended absence.

Commanders' Deatrich Wise: Listed as questionable for TNF
Rotowire
Wise (knee) was limited in practice Wednesday and is listed as questionable for Thursday's road game against the Packers.
Wise was listed as a "full" participant on Washington's estimated practice reports Monday and Tuesday, so it's possible his limited reps Wednesday represent a setback of some sort. He played 56 percent of defensive snaps Week 1 and logged four tackles (two solo). If Wise isn't cleared to play Thursday, second-year pro Javontae Jean-Baptiste will stand to benefit from increased defensive snaps.

Patriots' Deatrich Wise: Productive in 2024
Rotowire
Wise tallied 29 total tackles (16 solo), including 5.0 sacks, and three passes defended over 15 games in 2024.
The veteran defensive end from Arkansas saw his tackle total drop significantly from 2023 to 2024 (25 less tackles), however, he played 195 fewer defensive snaps and appeared in one less game this season. Wise also tallied 0.5 more sacks than he did in 2023, tying Keion White for the most sacks on the Patriots' defense this year. Wise has now finished the final season of a four-year, $22 million deal signed with the Patriots in 2021, making him an unrestricted free agent this summer. He's proven to be an impactful pass rusher over the last three seasons (17.0 sacks in that time), so he's expected to be coveted by teams in need of pass-rush help this offseason.

Wise (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts.
Wise has been sidelined for the Patriots' last two games due to a foot injury he sustained in Week 10 against the Bears.

Rotowire
Wise (foot) didn't practice Wednesday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Wise missed his first game of the season in New England's Week 11 loss to the Rams due to a foot injury, and Wednesday's DNP suggests he might be at risk of missing additional time. If the 30-year-old defensive lineman cannot upgrade to at least limited practice either Thursday or Friday, he'll likely miss his second consecutive game in the Week 12 matchup against the Dolphins.
