Commanders Signing K Zane Gonzalez To Active Roster

Per Ben Standig, the Commanders are signing K Zane Gonzalez to their active roster on Monday. 

Gonzalez, 29, is a former seventh-round pick of the Browns back in 2017. He was in the second year of his four-year, $2.48 million contract and set to make a base salary of $555,000 in 2018 when the Browns waived him a few weeks into the regular season.

The Cardinals later signed Gonzalez to their practice squad before promoting him to their active roster during the 2018 season. Arizona brought him back on a one-year restricted tender in 2020 worth $3.27 million.

Gonzalez was testing the market as an unrestricted free agent for the first time in his career back in 2021 when he signed a one-year deal with the Lions. Detroit cut him coming out of the preseason, though and re-signed him to the practice squad. Carolina signed him away to their active roster. 

Carolina signed Gonzalez to a two-year extension in 2022 but was traded to the 49ers in  March 2023. He was eventually placed on injured reserve coming out of the preseason and cut loose in September of last year. 

In 2024, Gonzalez has appeared in three games for the Commanders and made three of his five field goal attempts along with all ten of his extra-point attempts.
