Commanders Releasing Former Third Round Kicker
The Washington Commanders are releasing former San Francisco 49ers third round draft pick and kicker Jake Moody.
The Washington Commanders have decided to release former third round draft pick kicker Jake Moody, according to sources. The 26-year-old, who played for the San Francisco 49ers, competed with undrafted free agent Drew Stevens for the position. Despite both players having similar performances in the preseason game, it appears Stevenson emerged as the preferred choice for the Commanders.
This decision comes less than a month into training camp, ahead of the final roster submission deadline on August 30. Moody, known for his 10/11 field goal and 10/11 extra point conversions last season, is expected to face an uncertain future in the NFL after this setback.
