Who will make the Commanders’ initial 53-man roster? Track the cuts here.

Comment

After a month of training camp, the Washington Commanders must cut down their roster to 53 players by 4 p.m. Tuesday.

Since Sunday evening, Commanders officials have also had to handle the difficult situation of rookie running back Brian Robinson Jr., who was shot in Washington and suffered non-life-threatening injuries. Coach Ron Rivera said the team may consider putting Robinson on the non-football injury list, which would mean Robinson would miss at least the first four games of the season, depending on what his doctors think about a potential return to the field.

Rivera said team executives, including General Manager Martin Mayhew and executive vice president of football and player personnel Marty Hurney, had to delay some Monday meetings, but “what’s important is Brian and just making sure he’s okay.”

After two losing seasons, Ron Rivera is optimistic Washington can make a Year 3 leap
