Stromberg is undergoing a right knee scope that will sideline him for approximately seven-to-eight weeks, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Stromberg agreed to an injury settlement with the Commanders on Monday, which allows him to sign with any team during the season, perhaps once he's recovered from his knee scope. The 23-year-old center appeared in just four games and played 28 total snaps with Washington during his rookie campaign, but a team could add the 2023 third-round pick to its practice squad or active roster once he's healthy again.

Stromberg was in line to miss all of 2024 after he was placed on IR in late August, but he and the Commanders were able to agree on an injury settlement Monday. Once the 2023 third-round pick out of Arkansas is past his injury, he'll be free to find work elsewhere.
