Who Should I Start? Robbie Chosen or Brandon Johnson

Tuesday, November 11, 4:47 PM

The Washington Commanders have elevated wide receiver Robbie Chosen to the active 53-man roster from the practice squad ahead of their Week 11 matchup against the Miami Dolphins in Madrid. Chosen has appeared in two games for Washington, catching five of eight targets for 53 yards. The 32-year-old wideout has all of a sudden become one of Washington's top wide receivers on gameday as they continue to be ravaged by injury, with top option Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) set to miss another game, Luke McCaffrey (shoulder) out for the season, Noah Brown (groin) on Injured Reserve, and the recently signed Treylon Burks (finger) also ruled out for Week 11. Chosen is expected to play more snaps against the Dolphins along with Deebo Samuel Sr., Chris Moore, and rookie Jaylin Lane.

The Denver Broncos waived wide receiver Brandon Johnson on Tuesday, according to a source. In addition to Johnson, the Broncos also parted ways with Tim Patrick, who quickly signed with the Detroit Lions, Lil'Jordan Humphrey and David Sills to trim their roster down to 53 by the deadline. Johnson improved in Year 2 with Denver last year by catching 19 of his 30 targets for 284 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games (two starts), but he wasn't able to make the final cut this summer after the offseason additions of Josh Reynolds and rookie fourth-rounder Troy Franklin. The 26-year-old rejoin the Broncos practice squad to give the team additional depth during the regular season, though. Johnson joined Denver as an undrafted free agent out of Central Florida in 2022.
