Washington: So, the Commanders just picked up K.J. Osborn after he got cut by the Patriots. Pretty wild, right? This happened right after the news that Noah Brown might be out for the season due to a serious injury.
Now, we don’t know if the Steelers tried to grab Osborn too, but the Commanders had the upper hand in the waiver order. They’re in a better spot for snagging players who get released.
By claiming Osborn, the Commanders take over his contract, which means the Patriots are off the hook for any future payments. It’s a bit murky how much the Patriots would owe him since he was let go with a non-injury settlement. Osborn might have given up some of his salary rights since he was on the active roster in Week 1.
In his time with the Patriots, Osborn didn’t do much, with just seven catches for 57 yards and one touchdown over seven games. Let’s see if he can turn things around with the Commanders!
