Washington Commanders Sign DT Ricky Barber to Active Roster

The Washington Commanders announced on Wednesday that they have signed defensive tackle Ricky Barber off the practice squad to their active roster. The roster addition comes after Washington lost a pair of defensive tackles, Javon Kinlaw and Daron Payne, to season-ending injuries. Barber appeared in two games for Washington as an undrafted free agent in 2025, recording five tackles and a sack.
