Commanders' Nick Bellore: Retiring after 15 seasons
Bellore (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/retired list by the Commanders on Monday.
Bellore was let go to make room on the 90-man roster for cornerback Rasul Douglas. The special teamer is dealing with an undisclosed injury and is now calling it a career after 15 seasons. The Central Michigan product lasted that long in the NFL despite going undrafted, playing far more on special teams than defense during his career.

Head coach Dan Quinn told reporters that Bellore (concussion) won't play in Thursday's matchup against the Cowboys, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
The Central Michigan product likely sustained a concussion in the Week 16 loss to the Eagles, so it's no surprise that he'll be sidelined Thursday. Bellore has played almost exclusively on special teams this season, recording 11 total tackles and one forced fumble across 15 appearances.

Commanders' Nick Bellore: Won't play in Week 11
Bellore (knee) is out for Thursday's game at Philadelphia, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
Bellore was forced out of the Commanders' contest in Week 10 early by a knee injury, and now he'll be sidelined for his first game this season Thursday as he recovers. In his absence, rookie fifth-rounder Jordan Magee has one less hurdle to potentially see his first defensive snap this year.

Commanders' Nick Bellore: Injures knee in Week 10
Bellore suffered a knee injury Sunday against Pittsburgh and is questionable to return.
Bellore was deemed questionable to return with just over two minutes remaining in the game, so it may be difficult for him to return if the injury is isn't minor. Prior to his exit, the linebacker notched one tackle on special teams. Bellore entered Sunday having played just six defensive snaps on the season, but he had logged 164 special-teams snaps over nine contests.
