Commanders' Javontae Jean-Baptiste: Shifts to IR
Jean-Baptiste (pectoral) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.
The 2024 seventh-round pick from Notre Dame tore his pectoral during the Week 4 loss to the Falcons, so it's no surprise he's been placed on IR. Jean-Baptiste played 71 total snaps (59 on defense, 12 on special teams) over three games this season, recording six total tackles. Preston Smith is likely to see increased defensive work while Jean-Baptiste remains sidelined for at least the Commanders' next four games.

Commanders' Javontae Jean-Baptiste: Set to undergo surgery
Jean-Baptiste will undergo surgery for a torn pectoral that he suffered during the Commanders' 34-27 loss to the Falcons on Sunday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Jean-Baptiste is expected to be placed on injured reserve following the surgery, and head coach Dan Quinn relayed Monday that the recovery timeline is "usually months, not weeks." Jean-Baptiste will will be on the IR well past the four-game minimum, but it's unclear whether he can return toward the end of the regular season or for the postseason, if the Commanders qualify. Jalyn Holmes should see an uptick in playing time at defensive end, but Washington can also turn to veteran Preston Smith, who was a healthy scratch in each of the Commanders' last two games after signing with the team Sept. 16.

Commanders' Javontae Jean-Baptiste: May have torn pectoral
Jean-Baptiste will undergo an MRI on a pectoral injury that he suffered during the Commanders' 34-27 loss to the Falcons on Sunday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Per Jhabvala, the Commanders fear that Jean-Baptiste tore his pec during Sunday's loss, which would likely necessitate a lengthy stint on injured reserve. The Commanders received much-needed depth at defensive end by signing Preston Smith (coach's decision) earlier in September, and the veteran could be active for Week 5 against the Chargers on Sunday, Oct. 5 if Jean-Baptiste is sidelined. Jalyn Holmes would also be in line for a significant increase in defensive snaps.

The Commanders placed Jean-Baptiste (ankle) on injured reserve Wednesday.
Head coach Dan Quinn told reporters Monday that Jean-Baptiste sustained an ankle injury in the Commanders' Week 6 loss to the Ravens, and Wednesday's move to IR indicates his injury is significant.

Commanders' Javontae Jean-Baptiste: Sustains right ankle injury
Head coach Dan Quinn told reporters Monday that Jean-Baptiste sustained a right ankle injury in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Ravens, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
The 2024 seventh-round pick out of Notre Dame played 33 total snaps (27 defensive and six on special teams) and recorded two total tackles in Sunday's loss, but it appears he picked up an ankle injury in the process. Jean-Baptiste's practice participation throughout the week will provide the best indication on whether the rookie can suit up in Week 7, when the Commanders host the Panthers.
