The signing of veteran running back Craig Reynolds, who spent time with the Commanders as a UDFA in 2019, serves as a strategic buffer. Reynolds understands the nuances of pass protection, scheme deployment and assignment-sound football. By absorbing many of these high-risk reps, Reynolds protects locked-in contributors from meaningless injury while still leaving adequate offensive snaps and touches for both Allen and Henry.

Signed as injury buffer to protect Allen and Henry during preseason evaluation.

Signed as a strategic depth buffer to protect rookie running backs Allen and Henry from injury risk during the final two preseason games. Reynolds absorbs high-risk reps on early-down work and pass-blocking snaps, allowing the rookies to focus on scripted evaluation film without over-exposure to injury or waiver-claim risk. Reynolds understands pass protection, scheme deployment, and assignment-sound football; he works with offensive coordinator David Blough to learn the Commanders offense and potentially earn a practice squad spot as injury insurance.
