The Washington Redskins announced that they have promoted TE J.P. Holtz from their practice squad to the active roster.
Holtz, 25, originally signed on with the Browns as an undrafted free agent out of Pittsburgh back in 2016. Cleveland signed him to their practice squad and re-signed him to a one-year futures contract the next offseason.
After bouncing on and off the Browns’ practice squad, he signed on with the Redskins in August but was among their final roster cuts coming out of the preseason. Holtz signed with Washington’s practice squad once clearing waivers.
He has yet to appear in an NFL game.
During his four-year college career at Pittsburgh, Holtz recorded 81 receptions for 931 yards receiving (11.5 YPC) and 11 touchdowns.
