Redskins Finalize 53-Man Roster
The Washington Redskins finalized their moves to trim their active roster to 53 players by the league’s 4 p.m. ET deadline on Saturday.
Below is the 2015 Washington Redskins 53-man roster. Even though the list is official, it also is subject to change as the Redskins could make a move or two on the league’s waiver wire. The team currently has only two tight ends; Jordan Reed and Derek Carrier. Reed has a history of multiple injuries and Carrier just joined the team a few weeks back.
