JOINT BASE ANDREWS — In less than 24 hours Bryan Stork was informed of his impending release from the New England Patriots, was told he was being traded to the Washington Redskins, mulled retirement and then the trade became official at 5:30 p.m on Wednesday.
There was uncertainty on Thursday morning as to whether Stork was considering reporting to the Redskins or retiring, but the 25-year-old center will report to the team this weekend, according to a person familiar with the situation.
The addition of Stork adds depth to the position behind starter Kory Lichtensteiger and he’s a physical player who embodies the gritty attitude general manager Scot McCloughan desires in his players.
