Joins Commanders' practice squad
Washington signed Hartman to its practice squad Saturday. The Commanders waived Hartman on Thursday, and they're bringing him back onto their practice squad just two days later now that he's cleared waivers. As long as Jayden Daniels, Marcus Mariota and Jeff Driskel remain healthy, he's not likely to be elevated any time soon.
Let go by Washington
Hartman was waived by the Commanders on Thursday. Hartman was relegated to the No. 4 quarterback role with Washington in Week 6 and he'll now be able to be claimed off waivers by any team in the league. If he goes unclaimed, Hartman will likely return to Washington as a member of the team's practice squad.
Healthy scratch
Hartman (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Browns. Hartman has been serving as the team's emergency QB to start the season, but with Marcus Mariota's return from injury, the Notre Dame product will be relegated to the team's No. 4 option on the positional depth chart at quarterback.
Emergency QB in Week 4
Hartman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 4 game against the Cardinals but will serve as the emergency quarterback for the contest. Hartman will continue in the same role he's held through the first three games of the regular season, and he'll only be able to enter Sunday's game if both Jayden Daniels and Jeff Driskel become unavailable due to injury or an ejection.
Emergency quarterback in Week 3
Hartman will serve as the Commanders' emergency third quarterback in Monday night's matchup against the Bengals. Hartman will serve as Washington's No. 3 quarterback for the third time in just as many weeks. The Notre Dame product will be allowed to enter Monday night's contest only if both Jayden Daniels and Jeff Driskel becoming unavailable due to ejection or injury.
Will be emergency QB again
Hartman will serve as Washington's emergency third quarterback Sunday versus the Giants. It's the second straight week in which Hartman will serve as the emergency third QB. He'll be able to enter Sunday's contest only if both Jayden Daniels and Jeff Driskel become unavailable due to injury or ejection.
Serving as emergency quarterback
Hartman (coach's decision) is designated as Washington's emergency third quarterback for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay. Though he's technically inactive, Hartman will be available to step in under center in the event that both Jayden Daniels and Jeff Driskel go down due to injury. Hartman figures to serve in that same role at least until Marcus Mariota (chest) is healthy again.
Added to active roster
The Commanders signed Hartman to the active roster Saturday. The move corresponds with Marcus Mariota (chest) landing on injured reserve. With Mariota sidelined for at least the first four games of the regular season, Hartman will serve as the third-string quarterback behind starter Jayden Daniels and newly acquired backup Jeff Driskel.
Joins Commanders' taxi squad
Hartman signed with the Commanders' practice squad Wednesday. Hartman sat out for most of training camp due to a shoulder injury, but he will stick around in Washington to serve as the team's practice squad quarterback. Marcus Mariota (groin) and Jeff Driskel are slated behind 2024 No. 2 overall pick Jayden Daniels on the depth chart. Hartman would figure to move up to the active roster should either of those three quarterbacks miss time.
