According to Mike Garafolo, the Commanders are releasing TE Logan Thomas on Friday.
Releasing Thomas creates $6,540,000 in cap space and $1,750,000 in dead money.
This marks the second cut of the day for Washington after releasing LT Charles Leno as well. Washington should now be in the market for a starting tight end.
Thomas, 32, is a former fourth-round pick of the Cardinals back in 2014. He lasted just over a year in Arizona before he was waived and later claimed by the Dolphins.
Thomas was in the third year of his four-year, $2,652,092 rookie contract when the Dolphins waived him in 2017 and he was later claimed by the Giants. He had a brief stint with the Lions after he made the decision to convert to tight end and later caught on with the Bills.
Buffalo declined to tender Thomas a restricted offer and he later signed on with the Lions. He signed a one-year deal with Washington in 2020, then signed a three-year, $24 million extension in 2021.
In 2023, Thomas appeared in 16 games for the Commanders and recorded 55 receptions for 496 yards (9.0 YPC) and four touchdowns.
