Cleared to play Week 10
Yankoff (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Lions, Ben Standig of Big 100 Washington D.C. reports.
Analysis: A hamstring injury prevented Yankoff from playing in the Commanders' last two games, but he's been cleared to return Sunday after logging a full practice Friday. He's mostly served on special teams this season, but his return bolsters the Commanders' depth at tight end behind Zach Ertz, John Bates and Ben Sinnott.

Out for Week 9
Yankoff (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday night's game against the Seahawks, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Commanders' No. 4 tight end, Yankoff carries almost zero fantasy value behind Zach Ertz, John Bates and Ben Sinnott. Yankoff has zero catches this season.

Out for Monday
Yankoff (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Chiefs, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Yankoff likely sustained a hamstring injury during Friday's practice, and the issue now appears serious enough for him to miss Monday night's contest. The UCLA product has appeared in all seven of Washington's games this season, failing to record an offensive stat while playing 184 total snaps (140 on special teams, 44 on offense). While he's sidelined in Week 8, the Commanders' tight-end room will likely consist of Zach Ertz, John Bates and Ben Sinnott.

Limited Friday
Yankoff (hamstring) was limited in Friday's practice, Commanders writer Ben Standig reports.
Analysis: Yankoff wasn't on the injury report Thursday, so it's possible he was injured in Friday's session. The Commanders will practice again Saturday ahead of Monday night's game against the Chiefs. Yankoff also dealt with a hamstring injury at the end of last season.

Activated off IR
The Commanders activated Yankoff (hamstring) off injured reserve and removed him from their injury report Saturday.
Analysis: Yankoff was designated to return to practice Jan. 8 but didn't play in last weekend's wild-card win over Tampa Bay. He logged a second straight week of full practices this week, and by being activated, he's now eligible to suit up Saturday night against the Lions. A roster spot opened up for Yankoff after linebacker Jordan Magee was placed on injured reserve Saturday due to a hamstring injury.

Logs another full practice
Yankoff (hamstring) practiced in full Tuesday.
Analysis: Yankoff was also a full practice participant all last week after being designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday. However, he wasn't activated off injured reserve ahead of Washington's wild-card win over the Buccaneers. It's unclear if Yankoff will be activated in time for this Saturday's divisional-round matchup against the Lions, but the chances of that happening would increase if fellow tight end Ben Sinnott (shoulder) isn't able to play.

Returning to practice
Yankoff (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
Analysis: Yankoff has been on IR since early November but will have a chance to return to action during the Commanders' playoff run. The UCLA product will now be able to practice with the team and could be added to the 53-man roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers if he is healthy enough to play.

Lands on IR
Yankoff (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve by the Commanders on Saturday.
Analysis: Yankoff suffered a hamstring injury during the practice week and didn't practice Friday after being a limited participant Thursday. The issue appears to be fairly serious, as Yankoff will need to miss at least the next four games while on IR. The tight end's absence is unlikely to impact the Commanders' offensive gameplan much, as Yankoff has played only six offensive snaps on the season. He's been a staple on special teams, though, and will be missed in that regard.

Ruled out due to hamstring injury
Yankoff (hamstring) did not practice Friday and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Yankoff appears to have picked up a hamstring injury during practice this week. He popped up on Thursday's injury report as a limited practice participant and was listed as a DNP on Friday. The injury is severe enough for Yankoff to miss Sunday's game, but with the Commanders playing on a short week in Week 11, that could mean he may be sidelined for Thursday's NFC East clash against the Eagles on Nov. 14. With Yankoff sidelined for Sunday's game, Washington will go with Zach Ertz, John Bates…read more

Filling special-teams role
Yankoff played all 17 of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: The undrafted rookie out of UCLA won a spot on the Commanders' season-opening 53-man roster as a fourth tight end, but he secured his place mainly due to his ability to contribute on special teams. He's suited up in five of Washington's first six games of the season and has played all but one of his 81 snaps on special teams.
