The Commanders acquired York from the Browns on Thursday in exchange for a conditional 2025 seventh-round pick, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Washington then waived Riley Patterson, leaving York as the only kicker on their roster. Meanwhile, Dustin Hopkins (undisclosed) is left as the lone kicker for Cleveland, suggesting the team isn't worried that his recent minor injury will affect his Week 1 availability. The Browns took York in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, but he was waived the following preseason after missing eight field-goal attempts during his rookie season. He then spent time with the Giants and Titans before landing back in Cleveland this spring.
