The Commanders waived Patterson on Thursday. Washington traded for Cade York, who now replaces Patterson as the only kicker on the roster. It's possible Patterson gets a look from another team with a shaky placekicking situation, but he may have to settle for a spot on a practice squad or wait until the season begins before receiving another opportunity.

Patterson is the only kicker on the Commanders' roster now after the team cut Ramiz Ahmed on Wednesday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports. Patterson hasn't won the job yet, as head coach Dan Quinn stated that he still considers it an open competition. The goal in letting go of Ahmed was to give the Memphis product all the reps this week. The 24-year-old will likely see new competition on board next week.

The Jaguars waived Patterson on Monday. Patterson had been competing with rookie sixth-rounder Cam Little for Jacksonville's starting kicking job, and it looks like Little came out ahead. Patterson, who turns 25 in September, has converted 59 of 67 field-goal attempts (88.1 percent) in his career, but just 19 of 25 tries (76.0 percent) from 40-plus yards.

Patterson was elevated from Cleveland's practice squad Friday and will kick in Saturday's wild-card round game against the Texans. Patterson's elevation was expected after the Browns ruled Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) out for the team's playoff opener. While filling in for Hopkins over the last two games of the regular season, Patterson converted his only field-goal attempt from 33 yards and made six of seven PAT attempts. Earlier in the season, he made 15 of 17 field-goal attempts and 35 of 37 PAT attempts for the Lions.

Patterson reverted to the Browns' practice squad Monday. For a second game in a row Sunday at Cincinnati, Patterson filled in at placekicker for Dustin Hopkins, making both his point-after tries. Hopkins hasn't practiced since injuring his left hamstring during a Week 16 win at Houston, but he'll have opportunities to do so as the Browns prepare for Saturday's wild-card contest against the Texans on the road. Patterson would handle kicking duties again this weekend if Hopkins isn't able to suit up.
