Washington DE/OLB Ryan Anderson linked to trade rumors

Albert Breer sent a rather low-key tweet listing players on a number of teams that he has heard are being discussed in trade talks ahead of the Saturday 4pm deadline for the initial roster cut down to 53.

Breer says Ryan Anderson, who has been an OLB since joining the team, but whom coaches have said will be a DE in the 4-3 defensive alignment being implemented by Jack Del Rio, is available for trade.

Cutdown's tomorrow. Here are guys raised in trade talks ...

• Bills WR Robert Foster
• Panthers WR Seth Roberts
• Bills TE Jason Croom
• Jets C Jonathan Harrison
• Saints DL Sheldon Rankins
• Eagles CB Rasul Douglas
• Eagles CB Sidney Jones
• Washington OLB Ryan Anderson— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) September 5, 2020

Given the Football Team’s depth at the position, which is manned by three first round draft picks in Kerrigan, Sweat and Young, this is no surprise.
