AUG 29 JONATHAN WILLIAMS CUT The Washington Commanders have made a decision in regards to their running back room.

According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, the Commanders are cutting running back Jonathan Williams.

This leaves Brian Robinson Jr., Antonio Gibson and sixth-round rookie Chris Rodriguez Jr. as the team's running backs.

AUG 28 COMMANDERS MAKE BIG CUTS The Washington Commanders are making a big dent into their roster cuts ahead of the 4 p.m. deadline on Tuesday.

According to the team's website, 12 players have been cut ...

  • WR Zion Bowens
  • LB Milo Eifler
  • CB DaMarcus Fields
  • LB Ferrod Gardner
  • S Joshua Kalu
  • WR Marcus Kemp
  • DT Isaiah Mack
  • DT Anthony Montalvo
  • T/G Aaron Montiero
  • RB Jaret Patterson
  • DE Joshua Pryor
  • CB DJ Stirgus

The team is also placing fourth-round rookie offensive lineman Braeden Daniels on injured reserve.

AUG 27 WENTZ 'FAILING UPWARDS'? Rumor has it that the Chiefs are a “level of interest” in signing free agent quarterback Carson Wentz. ... a piece of semi-news from Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.

Wentz of course was a top pick by the Eagles who then had had back-to-back one-year terms with the Colts and then with the Commanders ... and nothing every quite worked out.

The Chiefs’ QB2 spot may be a void. Carson Wentz - if he could ever realize his pedigree level - could fill that void as Patrick Mahomes' backup. And suddenly, Wentz might be in line for another Super Bowl ring without really having to play for it.

AUG 20 4 MOVES Washington has made four roster moves, the most notable of which means Joey Slye has won the kicker competition.

The multiple roster moves: defensive Isaiah Mack and punter Michael Palardy have been signed. Released are kicker Michael Badgley and receiver Jalen Sample.
