The Washington Football Team is adding some depth to their linebacker rotation, signing former Seattle Seahawks linebacker Mychal Kendricks off of the practice squad and adding him to the team.
According to The Washington Post‘s Nicki Jhabvala, Kendricks will fly private to Washington, making it so that he does not have to complete the 6 days of pre-entry COVID testing and is available to play in Week 16 against the Carolina Panthers.
This is a big signing for Washington, and one that we were hoping they would make over the offseason, and it comes at an important time too, with several of their linebackers banged up or injured. Washington will have a chance to clinch the NFC East division on Sunday with a win against the Panthers, and the defense will need reinforcements to get it done.
