The Washington Commanders made a roster move on Sunday, one day after a 24-14 preseason loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Washington placed defensive end Bunmi Rotimi on injured reserve after he suffered a leg injury during Saturday’s game.
The injury is unfortunate for Rotimi, who was looking to make the roster as a reserve defensive end behind Chase Young and Montez Sweat. The 27-year-old Rotimi initially signed with the Commanders in July 2021 but was released as a part of Washington’s final cuts. The Commanders signed him to the practice squad the next day.
