Deatrich Wise Jr. Injury News & Updates

Washington placed Wise (quadriceps) on injured reserve Monday.

Wise hurt his quad during Thursday's Week 2 loss to Green Bay and won't be able to play again this season. He'll finish his ninth NFL campaign with four tackles over two games. The Commanders signed defensive end Jalyn Holmes from their practice squad Monday to take Wise's spot on the 53-man roster.

Wise (quadriceps) suffered a season-ending injury during Thursday's 27-18 loss to the Packers, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Wise was carted off the field due to the injury, which occurred on a PAT attempt. The team will likely follow up shortly with a move placing him on injured reserve in the coming days. Wise will finish the 2025 season with four tackles (two solo).

Wise (quadriceps) has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's contest against the Packers.

Wise went down with an apparent lower-body injury on an extra-point attempt by the Packers in the second quarter, and he is now understood to be dealing with a quad issue. The 31-year-old required a cart to get to the locker room, so he may be looking at an extended absence.

Wise (knee) is active for Thursday's game against the Packers.

Wise drew the questionable tag for Week 2 due to a knee injury, but the issue isn't severe enough for him to miss Thursday's game. The 2017 fourth-rounder logged three tackles (two solo) during the Commanders' Week 1 win over the Giants this past Sunday.

Wise (knee) was limited in practice Wednesday and is listed as questionable for Thursday's road game against the Packers.

Wise was listed as a 'full' participant on Washington's estimated practice reports Monday and Tuesday, so it's possible his limited reps Wednesday represent a setback of some sort. He played 56 percent of defensive snaps Week 1 and logged four tackles (two solo). If Wise isn't cleared to play Thursday, second-year pro Javontae Jean-Baptiste will stand to benefit from increased defensive snaps.

Wise signed a one-year deal with the Commanders on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Wise will head to Washington where he should have an ample opportunity to compete for a starting spot on the defensive line. He spent the 2024 season with the Patriots where he racked up 29 tackles (16 solo), with 5.0 sacks, across 15 games played.

Wise tallied 29 total tackles (16 solo), including 5.0 sacks, and three passes defended over 15 games in 2024.

The veteran defensive end from Arkansas saw his tackle total drop significantly from 2023 to 2024 (25 less tackles); however, he played 195 fewer defensive snaps and appeared in one less game this season. Wise also tallied 0.5 more sacks than he did in 2023, tying Keion White for the most sacks on the Patriots' defense this year. Wise has now finished the final season of a four-year, $22 million deal signed with the Patriots in 2021, making him an unrestricted free agent this summer. He's proven to be an impactful pass rusher over the last three seasons (17.0 sacks in that time), so he's expected to be coveted by teams in need of pass-rush help this offseason.

Wise (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Colts.

Wise will return Sunday from a two-game absence due to a foot injury. The 2017 fourth-round pick has logged 22 tackles (14 solo), including 5.0 sacks, and three passes defensed across 10 regular-season games. Wise and Daniel Ekuale will serve in a rotational role at defensive end with starters Christian Barmore and Keion White.

Wise (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts.

Wise has been sidelined for the Patriots' last two games due to a foot injury he sustained in Week 10 against the Bears. He was able to practice all week -- albeit in a limited capacity -- and his status for Sunday's game will officially be announced when the Patriots release their inactives list approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Wise is unable to play, Daniel Ekuale would continue to serve as New England's top rotational defensive end behind Keion White and Christian Barmore.

Wise (foot) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Wise has missed each of the Patriots' last two games after sustaining a foot injury in the team's Week 10 win over the Bears, but Wednesday's limited session suggests he could be nearing a return. The 30-year-old's practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can suit up in Week 13, when the Patriots host the Colts.

Wise (foot) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

A foot injury kept Wise sidelined for the Patriots' Week 11 loss to the Rams, but he did give himself a chance to play in Week 12 after practicing in a limited capacity Friday. It wasn't enough for him to suit up Sunday, however, and his next opportunity play will be Week 13 against the Colts on Sunday, Dec. 1. Daniel Ekuale will be the Patriots' top rotational defensive end against the Dolphins behind Christian Barmore and Keion White due to Wise being inactive.

Wise (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.

The 30-year-old defensive lineman upgraded to limited work Friday after opening New England's week of practice with back-to-back DNPs, suggesting that he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup. However, if Wise is sidelined due to his foot injury, Daniel Ekuale will likely serve as the Patriots' top rotational defensive end.

Wise (foot) didn't practice Wednesday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Wise missed his first game of the season in New England's Week 11 loss to the Rams due to a foot injury, and Wednesday's DNP suggests he might be at risk of missing additional time. If the 30-year-old defensive lineman cannot upgrade to at least limited practice either Thursday or Friday, he'll likely miss his second consecutive game in the Week 12 matchup against the Dolphins.

Wise (foot) is inactive for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Rams, Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Wise will miss his first game of the season after being unable to practice all week due to a foot injury. His absence will be a blow to New England's pass rush , as Wise had notched 3.0 sacks over his previous two contests. Eric Johnson may see more defensive snaps in Wise's stead.

Wise (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Rams.

Despite Wise recorded three consecutive DNPs during the Patriots' week of practice, he still has a chance to suit up Sunday. However, these DNPs are likely an indication that Wise will be sidelined in Week 11. If that's the case, expect Jeremiah Pharms to see increased work with the Patriots' first-team defense.

Wise (foot) didn't practice Wednesday.

Wise appears to have picked up a foot injury in the Patriots' Week 10 win over the Bears, despite playing 37 total snaps (27 defensive and 10 on special teams) and recording 2.0 sacks and one pass defended. The Arkansas product likely needs to practice in a limited fashion either Thursday or Friday in order to suit up in Week 11, when the Patriots host the Rams.

Wise tallied two tackles (two solo), with 2.0 sacks, and a pass deflection in New England's win over the Bears on Sunday.

Wise was part of a dominant performance by the Patriots defense as a whole as he was one of seven different defenders to sack Caleb Williams. He has now racked 22 tackles (14 solo), including 5.0 sacks, across ten games played this season.

Wise finished Sunday's 30-13 loss to San Francisco with six tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defended.

Wise was the only Patriots defender to register a sack Sunday, as he took down Brock Purdy for a five-yard loss midway through the second quarter. Wise has registered a sack in each of his last two games, and for the season he's up to 10 tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, and two interceptions.

Wise (shoulder) is active for Thursday's game against the Jets.

Wise was limited during the Patriots' shortened practice week, but he'll suit up for Thursday's AFC East showdown. The 2017 fourth-round pick will provide rotational depth at defensive end behind starters Keion White and Daniel Ekuale.

Wise (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Jets.

Wise popped up on the injury report Monday despite playing his usual rotational workload in Week 2. Further clarity on the Arkansas product's availability for TNF likely won't come until the Patriots release their inactive list about 90 minutes before kickoff.

Wise (shoulder) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate.

Wise played his usual workload Sunday, so it's likely the injury isn't too severe. His status over the next two days leading into Thursday's game against the Jets should provide more clarity on the Arkansas product.

Wise racked up 54 tackles (22 solo), 4.5 sacks, one passed defensed and one forced fumble across 16 regular-season games with the Patriots in 2023.

Wise, who has spent all seven seasons of his NFL career with New England, is now heading into the final year of his contract with the team. He's found a recent rhythm in the team's defensive scheme, with back-to-back seasons with at least 50 tackles and 12.0 combined sacks from 2022-23. He stands to handle a starting role at defensive end again during the 2024 campaign.

Wise recorded four total tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sack in Sunday's 27-21 loss to the Bills.

The 29-year-old defensive lineman is now up to 4.5 sacks on the season, with 2.5 of those sacks coming in the last five weeks. Wise has appeared in 15 games for the Patriots this year, tallying 51 total tackles, including three tackles for loss, while also forcing one fumble. Expect Wise and the Patriots defense to try and end their season on a positive note against the Jets in Week 18.

Wise (illness) was removed from the Patriots' second Week 14 injury report Tuesday.

Wise was a DNP on Monday's practice estimate after missing Sunday's loss to the Chargers, but It appears that the Alabama product is now feeling better. He should be good to go Thursday against the Steelers.

Wise (shoulder/illness) is inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Wise was able to log a limited week of practice with his shoulder issue, but now he's also dealing with an illness and won't be able to suit up for New England's Week 13 contest. With Wise missing time, expect Jeremiah Pharms to see more snaps on the Patriots' defensive line.

Wise, who is dealing with a shoulder injury, also now has an illness and remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Wise logged three consecutive limited practices this week due to the shoulder injury and now has an illness working against him. If he's unable to suit up, Keion White and Jeremiah Pharms will be candidates to see extra work in Week 13.

Wise had eight tackles (three solo), including one sack, in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Commanders.

Wise got to Sam Howell late in the second quarter to register his second sack on the year. Wise has provided solid pass-rushing production in his seventh year in the NFL and is up to 34 tackles and two sacks in nine games this season.

Wise recorded three solo tackles, one sack, one forced fumble and one pass defense during Sunday's 38-15 win over the Browns.

Wise sacked Jacoby Brissett and forced a fumble on the first play of the fourth quarter, but he ball went out of bounds before anyone could recover. The veteran defensive end has played at least 75 percent of the Patriots' defensive snaps in every game this season and is in the midst of his best professional campaign. Across six appearances, Wise has already tied his career high with five sacks while adding 25 tackles, two forced fumbles and one pass defense.

Wise recorded six tackles (five solo) and three sacks during Sunday's 37-26 loss to the Ravens.

Wise did a great job of corralling Lamar Jackson when he tried to scramble away from pressure and notched the Patriots' first three-sack game since 2015. Across the first three games of the season, the sixth-year defensive end has 13 tackles and four sacks, one shy of his career high.

The Patriots restructured Wise's contract Wednesday by converting $2.85 million of his base salary into a signing bonus, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

The transaction creates $1.9 million in cap space for New England, a necessary move after the team's trade for DeVante Parker. Wise, who had 41 tackles and three sacks in 16 games last season, remains under contract through 2024.

Wise (illness) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

Wise landed on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Dec. 25, and he was forced to miss Sunday's game against the Bills. His return to the field will be a big boost to New England's defense heading into a Week 17 matchup against Jacksonville. Through 14 games this season, Wise has recorded 36 total tackles, four passes defended and three sacks.

Wise has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, per the NFL's official transaction log.

That's hit to the Patriots' defensive line ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills. Wise has logged 36 tackles and three sacks in 14 games to date, and until he clears COVID protocols, Carl Davis figures to see added work.

Wise (illness) is active for Thursday's game against the Falcons.

Wise was forced to miss practice early in the week but did manage a limited session Wednesday. He'll look to build on his Week 10 performance against the Browns, as he recorded 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble.

Wise (illness) was listed as questionable for Thursday night's matchup against the Falcons.

After missing practices both Monday and Tuesday, Wise was a limited participant in practice Wednesday. If the defensive end is able to suit up Thursday night, look for his hot performance to continue against a weak Atlanta offensive line that was recently exploited by the Cowboys.

Wise (illness) did not practice Tuesday.

Wise is coming off an impressive performance in Week 10's win over Cleveland, in which he managed four tackles (three solo), 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble. With just one more day of practice before Thursday's road matchup against Atlanta, though, Wise's availability will need to be closely monitored.

Wise had six tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 35-29 loss to the Cowboys.

Wise has 21 tackles through six contests, so for fantasy purposes he's showcased as solid a floor as one can ask of a defensive end. However, with just a half-sack and one pass breakup on the season, Wise doesn't necessarily possess high-end IDP upside.

Wise agreed to a contract with the Patriots on Monday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

The terms of the team remain unclear, but the 26-year-old will stick in New England after totaling 49 tackles (27 solo), 2.5 sacks and one fumble recovery during 2020. Wise appeared in all but two games over his first four seasons and should to have a significant role in the Patriots' defensive line rotation.

Wise (personal) will play Sunday against the Broncos, Jim McBride of The Boston Globe reports.

Wise missed the first two practices of the week for non-injury reasons, but he returned to practice Friday and is good to go. The 25-year-old defensive end has posted 11 tackles and 0.5 sacks through four games, and he could handle a decent workload Sunday if Adam Butler (shoulder) is ruled out.

Wise (personal) is not present at Friday's practice due to "non-injury related" issues, Tom E. Curran of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Wise also missed Thursday's practice for non-injury reasons. The fourth-year defensive end was present at New England's facility Friday, but did not take the field during the early portion of practice. The Patriots' final injury report of the week, which is slated to be released Friday afternoon, will reveal whether Wise carries an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
