Commanders sign punter Matt Haack as Tress Way recovers from injury

The Washington Commanders announced the signing of punter Matt Haack for training camp on July 29, 2026. Tress Way, the team's regular punter, is sidelined with a pectoral injury but is expected to return to practice soon. During a press conference, GM Adam Peters confirmed that Way will be working on the side field while Haack takes over punting duties. Additionally, linebacker Kain Medrano is dealing with a hamstring injury, and cornerback Trey Amos remains out due to soft tissue soreness after a fractured fibula last season. The team anticipates that defensive linemen Dorance Armstrong and Deatrich Wise Jr. will be on the active/PUP list for a few more weeks.
