Reyes (concussion) was placed on the reserve/retired list Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Reyes was in the league's concussion protocols at the time of the announcement.

It's not clear when Reyes suffered the concussion, but the 27-year-old was not seen on the field Thursday. He'll need to pass through the league's protocols before he can return to practice and continue working to earn a role in the team's tight-end corps this season.

Sammis Reyes: Heading to Chicago's practice squad
Rotowire
The Bears signed Reyes to their practice squad Tuesday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Reyes was given the opportunity to join Chicago's practice squad Tuesday, after he recently completed a successful workout for the team, per Biggs. The 6-foot-5, 260-pounder suited up for 11 games in 2021 with Washington, but he ultimately failed to record any statistics in that span. He'll now serve as an emergency depth option should any of the Bears' tight ends miss time.

Sammis Reyes: Works out in Indy
Rotowire
The Colts brought in Reyes (undisclosed) for a workout Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Reyes looks to be healthy again after being waived with an injury settlement from the Commanders' injured reserve in August. The tight end played 144 of his 177 total snaps on special teams over 11 games during his rookie campaign with Washington last year, and he could likely serve as a potential depth option on Indianapolis' practice squad this season.

Rotowire
The Commanders placed Reyes (undisclosed) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Rotowire
Reyes (hamstring) didn't participate in Washington's practices this offseason while dealing with leg discomfort, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Reyes dealt with a variety of injuries during his rookie campaign with Washington in 2021, and he was ultimately sidelined with a hamstring injury in the team's regular-season finale. It's not clear if the same injury is what caused him to miss the entirety of the team's offseason program, but he'll likely need more recovery time heading into training camp.

Reyes (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

Reyes was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list before Tuesday's matchup with the Eagles but didn't play due to the concussion, but he's now apparently clear of the concussion protocols.

Rotowire
Reyes was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
Reyes was just one of a handful of Washington players to land in the NFL's COVID-19 protocols Wednesday. If the backup tight end isn't cleared before Sunday's matchup with the Eagles, then Ricky Seals-Jones and John Bates would be the only healthy tight ends on Washington's roster.

Rotowire
Reyes (concussion) was able to practice Monday, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

Football Team's Sammis Reyes: Enters concussion protocol
Rotowire
Coach Ron Rivera said Wednesday that Reyes has entered the concussion protocol, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Reyes dealt with a knee injury earlier in camp but returned to the field Aug. 8. However, he'll now have several steps to clear before he passes through the league's concussion protocols. It's unlikely that he'll be available for Friday's preseason game against the Bengals, and his second absence will limit his opportunities as he competes for a spot on the 53-man roster.
