Ford is a free agent option the Commanders could sign to address their running back injury crisis. He joined Washington in free agency this offseason but was waived due to injuries after falling behind Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson with the Cleveland Browns. He was subsequently signed to the Minnesota Vikings' practice squad, then released, and is currently on the Arizona Cardinals' practice squad. He is reportedly healthy now. Ford knows David Blough's scheme and the locker room culture, making the transition smooth, and may be on the Commanders' shortlist given their immediate need for help.

Ford, age 27, is already on the Cardinals' practice squad and the source recommends elevating him immediately. A fifth-round pick by Cleveland in 2022, Ford had a career-high 813 yards on 204 carries with four TDs in 2023 when Chubb was injured, split carries with Hunt, and has 107 receptions for 647 yards in his career, showing involvement in the short passing game. Elevating Ford would give Arizona Allgeier, Ford as backup, and Hull at RB3.
