Commanders Make Four Roster Moves Including Placing C Ricky Stromberg On IR
The Washington Commanders announced four roster moves, including placing C Ricky Stromberg on injured reserve.
They filled his roster spot by signing OL Julian Good-Jones from the Eagles practice squad and added RB Jonathan Williams and LB Brandon Bouyer-Randle to the practice squad.
Stromberg, 22, was a four-year starter at Arkansas and earned First Team All-SEC honors as a senior. He won the Jacobs Blocking Trophy for the Razorbacks in 2022 before being selected by Washington in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
He signed a four-year, $5,304,082 rookie contract that includes an $857,514 signing bonus and will carry a cap figure of $964,379 in 2023.
During his four-year college career, Stromberg appeared in 46 games and made 44 starts with 33 as a center nine as a right guard, and twice as a left guard.
In 2023, Stromberg has appeared in four games for the Commanders./cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/72590791/usa_today_21284724.0.jpg?w=678&ssl=1)
Washington Commanders Wildcard Watch 2023 – Week 10
Wildcard Watch is intended to overview — with an optimistic slant — the Commanders’ path to the playoffs for the ‘23 season, such as it is. This will be the fourth different time in which I’ve launched this series somewhere in the middle of the season, but Washington has yet to reach the playoffs in any season when I’ve written the articles, so, yes, I understand the long-shot nature of the undertaking. Hope springs eternal…
I had planned to publish the first Wildcard Watch article of the 2023 season following the team’s Week 7 victory over the Giants in the Meadowlands, but I think we all know how that turned out. After seeing the team lose to the Giants in the fashion they did, I pledged not to even think the word ‘playoffs’ until the team was a full game over .500, but after the past two weeks (Eagles and Patriots) I’ve decided to gird my loins and take the plunge. Consider me to be a thought leader on the cutting edge of the Commanders ‘23 postseason campaign (or don’t…up to you).
I intend to publish the Wildcard Watch as a weekly series for as long as Washington has a reasonable chance of earning a playoff spot.
A total of 9 losses on the season by Washington at any point will probably bring the series to an abrupt end.
Until then, I’ll keep my eye on the playoff prize and ignore the 2024 draft for as long as there’s a chance at the postseason.
If you aren’t interested in this kind of article, now would be a good time to return to the front page and look for something less optimistic to read.
