The Washington Commanders signed former first-round draft pick Treylon Burks to the practice squad on Friday and released fellow wide receiver Tay Martin.
The Commanders are looking to bolster their depth at the position with Terry McLaurin working his way back from a quadriceps injury and fellow wideout Deebo Samuel nursing a heel injury.
Burks, 25, has struggled since being selected by the Tennessee Titans with the 18th overall pick of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Arkansas. The Titans acquired that pick from Philadelphia after they traded wideout A.J. Brown to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Burks was waived by the team on July 28, two days after he sustained a fractured collarbone during practice.
Injuries are nothing new for Burks, who missed a total of 12 games over his first two seasons before sitting out the final 12 games of the 2024 campaign with a torn ACL.
Burks has 53 catches for 699 yards and one touchdown in 27 career games (17 starts) with the Titans.
Martin, 27, had two catches for 23 yards in three games this season.
He has totaled three receptions for 72 yards in seven career games with the San Francisco 49ers, Titans and Commanders.
