Commanders' Montez Sweat: Productive 2022 season
Sweat started all 17 games during the 2022 season and compiled 46 tackles (27 solo), including eight sacks.
Sweat had another solid season, finishing second on the Commanders in sacks and third in tackles for loss (14). The 2019 first-round pick played 70 percent of the defensive snaps, the most among any of Washington's defensive ends. He's set to play out the last year of his rookie contract in 2023, when he'll look to maintain this level of production in order to put himself in a favorable bargaining position ahead of a potential dip into free agency.

Commanders' Montez Sweat: Returns to practice
Sweat (concussion) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

Commanders' Montez Sweat: Remains in protocols
Sweat is still in concussion protocols, but he's expected to return to practice Wednesday or Thursday, Matthew Paras of The Washington Times reports.
Sweat suffered a concussion in Week 13's tie with the Giants, but he was unable to gain clearance during the team's Week 14 bye and remains in protocols. However, a return to practice later this week would leave open the possibility for him to suit up Sunday in a rematch with the Giants. With James Smith-Williams still in concussion protocols as well, and Chase Young's debut date still a moving target, the Commanders face the possibility of being thin on the edges if Sweat is unable to play.

Sweat is being evaluated for a concussion Sunday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Sweat left Sunday's game against the Giants early and did not appear to return before the game ended in a 20-20 tie. Whether Sweat suffered a concussion is still unknown. If he did, he'll have extra time to recover with the Commanders headed into a Week 14 bye before they play the Giants again in Week 15.
