Leon Washington Waived by Patriots
Kick/Punt returner Leon Washington has been waived by the Patriots today. The transaction was first reported by Dennis Waszak Jr. of the Associated Press...
Washington was brought in to take on kick/punt returning but its seems his wheels may be shot. Washington had a poor preseason with the only bright spot coming on a long return of 40+ yards against the Giants on Thursday night. Washington is now in his eighth year in the league.
Julian Edelman will likely resume punt returning duties while rookie Josh Boyce could take kickoff returns.

The #Patriots have cut RB-KR Leon Washington, per source. Should get lots of looks elsewhere. #Jets #Seahawks.
