The Washington Commanders have signed 33-year-old former NFL player Lucas Patrick to their 53-man roster, providing the team with valuable veteran experience on their offensive line. Patrick has started 65 career games over a decade in the NFL, playing all three interior positions: center, left guard, and right guard. The Commanders, who are still working on settling their interior line, obtained Patrick after he visited the team earlier this week.
Patrick had previously played for the New York Giants, Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bears, New Orleans Saints, and Cincinnati Bengals before being released by the Giants. Despite some knee issues during training camp, Patrick has proven himself as a seasoned player, demonstrating his ability to contribute to a team's success. The signing comes just days before the Commanders' matchup against the Dallas Cowboys on September 20, providing the team with an experienced option to strengthen their offensive line.
