NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday that the club is likely moving on from longtime starting tackle Morgan Moses, giving him the ability to seek a trade, per sources informed of the situation.
Moses is due $7.75 million in 2021, the full sum of which would travel with him in any trade. Washington would clear that from the salary cap with $1.9 million in dead money by moving on. The starting tackle is under contract in 2022 for an additional $7.75 million.
Washington could release the offensive tackle if it can t find a trade partner, per Rapoport.
The Bears are going into the season with Sam Mustipher at center and most of their starting offensive line set. Redmond will help as a backup, likely at center and guard.
