Riley Patterson: Cut loose in favor of Cade York
The Commanders waived Patterson on Thursday.
Washington traded for Cade York, who now replaces Patterson as the only kicker on the roster. It's possible Patterson gets a look from another team with a shaky placekicking situation, but he may have to settle for a spot on a practice squad or wait until the season begins before receiving another opportunity.

Commanders' Riley Patterson: Last one standing
Patterson is the only kicker on the Commanders' roster now after the team cut Ramiz Ahmed on Wednesday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Patterson hasn't won the job yet, as head coach Dan Quinn stated that he still considers it an open competition. The goal in letting go of Ahmed was to give the Memphis product all the reps this week. The 24-year-old will likely see new competition on board next week.

Commanders' Riley Patterson: Snatched by Washington
The Commanders claimed Patterson off waivers from the Jaguars on Wednesday.
Patterson lost the kicking competition in Jacksonville just two days ago, but he's quickly found work again with Washington. The 24-year-old kicker made 15 of his 17 field goal attempts with Detroit last season and has gone 93-of-97 on extra-point tries during his career. Patterson will now compete with Ramiz Ahmed for the Commanders' placekicking duties.

Riley Patterson: Loses competition in Jacksonville
The Jaguars waived Patterson on Monday.
Patterson had been competing with rookie sixth-rounder Cam Little for Jacksonville's starting kicking job, and it looks like Little came out ahead. Patterson, who turns 25 in September, has converted 59 of 67 field-goal attempts (88.1 percent) in his career, but just 19 of 25 tries (76.0 percent) from 40-plus yards.

Jaguars' Riley Patterson: Joins Jaguars
Patterson signed a reserve/future contract with the Jaguars on Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Brandon McManus, the Jaguars' kicker in 2023, is slated to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason. If McManus ultimately leaves for another opportunity, Patterson would become the team's only player at the position. The 24-year-old converted 16 of 18 field-goal attempts across 15 games this season between the Lions (13) and Browns (two), while also nailing 35 of 37 extra points.

Riley Patterson: Moves back to practice squad
The Browns reverted Patterson to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
After joining Cleveland on Christmas Day, Patterson worked as the team's kicker in the final two weeks of the regular season and in the the wild-card loss to Houston this past Saturday. He attempted and made just one field goal -- a 33-yarder -- during that span and also went 8-for-9 on extra-point attempts. Dustin Hopkins was effective this season for the Browns before injuring his hamstring in Week 16 and will likely retain his role as the team's kicker in the final year of his current contract next season.
