For two years, former Norfolk State University star Lynden Trail has waited. Trail, a former pass rushing specialist with a 6-foot-6 frame, has bounced around from practice squad to practice squad since he came into the league in 2015. Now, he will have a chance to change that with the Washington Redskins.
According to the Redskins Twitter, Trail will be joining the team’s active roster ahead of the team’s important Week 16 matchup with the Chicago Bears. To make room for him, the team released linebacker Nick Moody, who had been added to the 53-man roster last week in wake of the Will Compton and Su’a Cravens injuries.
