Surprisingly, the Washington Commanders released veteran cornerback Danny Johnson on Wednesday. Washington made the move to claim rookie cornerback Kyu Blu Kelly off waivers from the Green Bay Packers.
Danny Johnson’s injury happened after he helped break up a Lamar Jackson pass along the right sideline during practice on Tuesday. He picked up the loose ball from the turf but was grabbed from behind by the 6-foot-5, 247-pound Andrews and thrown to the ground, which started a brawl between the Ravens and Commanders sidelines.
During Tuesday’s joint practice between Baltimore and Washington, several brawls broke out — highlighted by Ravens tight end Mark Andrews body-slamming Commanders defensive back Danny Johnson.
