The Washington Redskins officially waived FB Elijah Wellman from injured reserve with a settlement on Tuesday.
Wellman, 23, wound up signing on with the Redskins as an undrafted free agent out of West Virginia back in May. He signed a three-year, $1.71 million contract and is set to make a base salary of $485,000 for the 2018 season.
The Redskins waived Wellman with an injury designation last week and he later reverted to their injured reserve list.
During his college career at WVU, Wellman rushed for 137 yards on 35 carries (3.9 YPC) to go along with 16 receptions for 71 yards receiving and four total touchdowns over the course of 44 games.
