The Washington Redskins must cut their roster to 75 by 4 p.m. ET Tuesday and to 53 by 4 p.m. ET Saturday. Here’s a final 53-man roster projection:
There’s a clear order here with Cousins the starter, McCoy the backup and Sudfeld the young guy they want to develop, whether to become a future backup if Cousins signs a long-term deal or to possibly replace him (if he becomes that good and there is a sense among some in the building that he can become a starter within a couple of years). The Redskins want to make sure they’re covered for any scenario.
