Since Adam Peters became general manager, the Washington Commanders have gone through eight different kickers, and the position remains a question mark.
First, the team signed Brandon McManus, ultimately releasing him less than three months later due to sexual assault allegations. He was ultimately cleared and went on to convert 95 percent of his field goals for the Green Bay Packers in 2024. To add insult to injury, he made a 56-yarder against Washington in Week 2 this year.
Ramiz Ahmed and Riley Patterson came on board after. Both struggled in training camp and pre-season, leading to the team trading for Cade York.
