The Washington Commanders have reportedly waived former Ron Rivera 2nd round pick DT Phidarian Mathis. This was an expected move from the team for several reasons. He has been a healthy scratch for the last three games and practice squad DT Carl Davis was elevated to get playing time over him. Dan Quinn called it "internal competition" which means he was beat out for his spot. His first two year's were plagued by injuries, now healthy, he's just not good enough.
The #Commanders are waiving DL Phidarian Mathis, sources say, putting the former second-rounder on waivers.
