"The former South Carolina standout has bounced around the league after being released by the Indianapolis Colts just one season into his career. His latest stint with an NFL franchise lasted two weeks, and Cleveland Browns fans couldn't wait to get rid of the defensive back after some lackluster efforts during the preseason. Rush is getting a shot to establish himself in Washington. He's got the size and length typically associated with cornerbacks in Dan Quinn and Joe Whitt Jr.'s scheme."
"The Commanders opted to take only five cornerbacks onto their roster. Four-time Pro Bowler Marshon Lattimore and second-round rookie Trey Amos will start as the team's outside tandem. This allows potential superstar Mike Sainristil to move back into the nickel, where his exceptional skill set is best suited, in Year 2 of his professional career. Two-time Super Bowl winner Jonathan Jones brings experience and dependability to the rotation."
Adam Peters finalized the Washington Commanders' 53-man roster and assembled the practice squad ahead of the season. The practice squad mainly includes players from training camp plus newcomers such as cornerback Darius Rush. Rush, a former South Carolina standout, has bounced around the league after being released by the Indianapolis Colts and a brief, two-week stint elsewhere following poor preseason play. Rush brings size and length suited to Dan Quinn and Joe Whitt Jr.'s scheme and could see situational snaps depending on weekly matchups. The team kept five cornerbacks on the active roster, with Marshon Lattimore and Trey Amos starting outside and Mike Sainristil shifting to nickel.
