The Washington Commanders have started trimming their roster ahead of the 53-player deadline, with players like receivers Davion Davis, Martavis Bryant, and Mitchell Tinsley, as well as cornerback Nick Whiteside II, already released. Additionally, tight end Cole Turner and defensive tackle John Ridgeway are potential trade candidates. Turner, a fifth-round draft pick in 2022, has struggled with blocking, while Ridgeway, also drafted in the fifth round, has appeared in 32 games since joining the team. If Ridgeway moves on, third-year defensive tackle Phidarian Mathis is expected to make the 53-man roster. The team is making tough decisions to shape their roster for the 2024 season.
