NFL Notes: Daryl Washington, 49ers, Broncos, Jaguars, Rams

Daryl Washington

Suspended Cardinals LB Daryl Washington tells Mike Jurecki of 910 Fox Sports that heโ€™s โ€œoptimisticโ€ about being reinstated by the NFL.

โ€œIโ€™m optimistic moving forward when it comes to being reinstated in 2017,โ€ Washington said.

Washington has been out of the league since May of 2014 when he was suspended indefinitely for violating the substance abuse policy.

According to OverTheCap.com, releasing will free up $4,670,000 in available cap space while creating $2.5 million in dead money.

  • Darren Urban feels confident in saying that the Cardinals have moved on from Washington and he doesnโ€™t expect him to be reinstated by the NFL.

49ers

  • Jason La Canfora writes that while Patriots personnel man Nick Caserio did not meet with the 49ers over the weekend for their GM vacancy, he wouldnโ€™t completely rule out him talking to the 49ers at some point, depending on how things progress with their search.
  • La Canfora adds that the 49ers โ€œvery much covetโ€ Patriots OC Josh McDaniels.

Broncos

  • Jason La Canfora continues to hear that things are moving quickly between the Broncos and Dolphins DC Vance Joseph. However, La Canfora reports that Falcons OC Kyle Shanahan had a great meeting with the Broncos and โ€œgave them some pause.โ€

Rams

  • Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reports that Rams GM Les Sneadโ€™s situation in Los Angeles remains โ€œtenuousโ€ and his role with the team will ultimately depend on whoโ€™s hired as their next head coach.
