Report: Redskins expected to release Josh Doctson if they can’t trade him

The Washington Redskins receiving core has been an area of great interest this offseason. Clashing themes of established mediocrity and unproven talent have rendered the unit a bottom-three position group in the league, but several players have shown off undeniable athletic potential in preseason.

Consequently, a debate has arisen over who the Redskins should keep, and who they should let go. It’s already been confirmed that the Redskins are letting go 2018 preseason standout Cam Sims to save room for upstart UDFA rookie and return specialist Steven Sims Jr. Now, we have reports that the Redskins are set to let go of former first-round pick Josh Doctson, if they can’t find a trade partner for him.
