  • Commanders' Bobby Wagner: Shines in first year with Washington

    Wagner finished the 2024 regular season with 132 tackles (75 solo), four pass defenses, two sacks, two fumble recoveries and one forced fumble in 17 games. Wagner's IDP value took a hit relative to recent seasons, but his real-life performance remained strong, with the Commanders more than getting their money's worth on a one-year, $6.5 million contract. The 34-year-old was a Second Team All-Pro and earned his 10th Pro Bowl nomination, with he and fellow linebacker Frankie Luvu quickly emerging as the top players on Washington's defense under new coach Dan Quinn. The Commanders presumably will try to re-sign Wagner, but they'll have healthy competition for his services if a contract isn't completed before the start of the new league year.

  • Commanders' Bobby Wagner: Cleared to face Philadelphia

    Wagner (ankle) was limited in practice Friday and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Eagles. Wagner missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, as it appears the Commanders have limited his activity level due to a lingering ankle issue. He's played 100 percent of defensive snaps in nine consecutive games, however, so there's no true reason for concern regarding his workload for Sunday's road matchup against Philadelphia. Wagner has tallied eight stops in three straight appearances, and he's also made a half-sack, one pass breakup and a fumble recovery in that span.

  • Commanders' Bobby Wagner: Misses Wednesday's practice

    Wagner (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday. The veteran inside linebacker powered through his ankle injury in Saturday's divisional-round win over the Lions, tallying eight total tackles while playing 100 percent of the Commanders' defensive snaps. Wagner registered a DNP/DNP/LP practice schedule before playing in the divisional round, so Wednesday's DNP is likely precautionary. However, if the Utah State product can't practice in a limited fashion Thursday or Friday, he could be in jeopardy of missing Sunday's NFC Championship Game in Philadelphia.

  • Seahawks' Bobby Wagner: Records eight stops Week 12

  • Seahawks' Bobby Wagner: Calling plays in 2023

    Wagner will call defensive plays for the Seahawks in 2023, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports. Per Dugar, Wagner is expected to be an every-down player while Jordyn Brooks, who is coming off a torn ACL, may come off the field in clear passing situations to make room for a sixth defensive back. Wagner is 33 years old but has missed just one game since the 2018 season and played nearly every snap in that stretch. With an every-snap role ahead, Wagner has a good chance to match the 140-tackle total he posted last season.

  • Seahawks' Bobby Wagner: Still not practicing

    Wagner (knee) didn't practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. Wagner hurt his knee on the first defensive play of this past Sunday's game against the Lions and didn't return. Eventually, he was diagnosed with MCL and PCL sprains after an MRI, threatening his availability for a Week 18 visit to Arizona. According to Boyle, Wagner said Wednesday that his knee is receiving treatment and he'll play the waiting game to see if he'll be able to suit up Sunday. With no on-field work to speak of yet, Wagner may be trending in the wrong direction, but he at least has one more practice to prove to the Seahawks training staff that he can play through the injuries.
