Commanders cornerback Trey Amos provides injury update

While much of the focus this offseason has been on the players the Washington Commanders have signed, there is also excitement about the players they will get back from injury. Of course, quarterback Jayden Daniels headlines that list, but second-year cornerback is another that new defensive coordinator Daronte Jones can't wait to work with. Amos was a second-round pick in last year's 2025 NFL Draft.

It didn't take long for Amos to make his mark, earning a starting position as a rookie. He appeared in 10 games, making eight starts, and was probably Washington's best cornerback until a broken fibula ended his season in Week 10. In a year where the Commanders lost so many players to injuries, Amos' loss was particularly stinging because of how well he was playing before the injury.

Now, the 6-foot-1, 195-pound Amos is penciled in as one of Washington's starting cornerbacks for 2026. But how is recovery from injury going? According to Amos, he's perfectly fine.

In a recent Instagram Live , a fan asked Amos about his leg. Here's his response: "Leg's going good, man, for real, for real," Amos said. "I just left a workout nearly five minutes ago.
