"Once the Commanders' initial 53-man roster is confirmed, Peters and his staff will scour the waiver wire and veteran pool for any candidates who could become useful additions to the squad. There will be hundreds to choose from, so it's all about finding the right fit in positions of need to provide immediate assistance. Some prominent names are already seeking alternative employment. One, in particular, could intrigue Peters after some indifferent performances from Washington's backup linebackers during the preseason."
"According to Ian Rapoport from the NFL Network, the Jacksonville Jaguars are waiving Chad Muma. He came into the league with a glittering reputation but never quite met expectations. Now, he'll get the chance to catch on elsewhere. Rapoport believes Muma is a strong candidate to be claimed by another organization. The Commanders are pretty low down the order after their sensational run to the NFC Championship game, so it'll be a waiting game even if Peters does put in a bid."
Adam Peters is conducting roster cuts as the Washington Commanders trim to 53 players while also tracking league developments. After finalizing the initial 53-man roster, the Commanders will search the waiver wire and veteran pool for players who fit positions of need and can provide immediate help. Waived players, including Chad Muma, could interest the team following mixed preseason play from backup linebackers. Muma, waived by the Jacksonville Jaguars, offers size and athleticism that could fit Dan Quinn and Joe Whitt Jr.'s schemes. Muma showed college tackling production but lacked consistent NFL performance, and claiming him would depend on waiver order luck.
