Washington Commanders cornerback Trey Amos has returned after a lengthy injury period, but coach Daronte Jones downplays expectations of his immediate impact. Amos, who suffered a fibula injury last November and faced setbacks during training camp, played in 58% of defensive snaps in his return against the 49ers. Jones emphasized that Amos' rehabilitation and presence on the field are significant, but restoring the pass defense will require collective effort. The Commanders look to increase Amos' snap count in their upcoming game against the Eagles.
