ASHBURN, Va. (AP) -- The Washington Redskins have released injured cornerback Chris Culliver after signing Josh Norman as a free agent and taking Kendall Fuller in the third round of the NFL draft.
Culliver tore the ACL and MCL ligaments in his right knee during practice on Thanksgiving Day.
He joined the Redskins as a free agent last offseason after spending four years with the San Francisco 49ers and appeared in six games with zero interceptions for Washington.
He sat out Washington's game in Week 2 of last season because the NFL suspended him for violating the league's personal conduct policy, a penalty that voided Culliver's guaranteed salary for 2016.
