A couple of days ago, the Washington Redskins waived former Auburn LB Cassanova McKinzy in order to make room on the roster for former Alabama TE Hale Hentges.
However, McKinzy wasn’t out of a job for very long, as he has signed with the Redskins’ practice squad, per a release from the team.
McKinzy recorded a sack in the Redskins’ season opener, but hasn’t recorded any stats since. Now, he’ll be on the practice squad, awaiting a spot on the active roster either in Washington or elsewhere.
Last year, McKinzy appeared in 3 games for Washington, recording only a single tackle.
