The Commanders cut kicker Cade York on Monday after he missed two field goals during Washington’s 37-20 loss at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during Sunday’s season opener.
York pushed a pair of kicks wide right on Sunday, one from 56 yards and the other from 47.
York’s release comes three weeks after the Commanders traded a conditional seventh-round pick to the Cleveland Browns for the second-year kicker.
Cleveland waived York in 2023 after a shaky training camp.
Multiple reports have said that Washington plans to sign Austin Seibert to replace York. Seibert, 27, has made 45 of 56 field goal attempts over his five-year NFL career.
The Commanders host the New York Giants (0-1) on Sunday.
