Commanders castoff lands ironic deja vu redemption path after major injury
"Clelin Ferrell joined the Commanders during Adam Peters' first offseason as general manager. The defensive end did enough for the front-office leader to bring him along from the San Francisco 49ers, but it never looked like it would work out. Despite his struggles and waning reps, Washington gave him another one-year deal, although this time around came with no guarantees attached whatsoever."
"According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, the Los Angeles Chargers have signed Ferrell following a successful workout. The Clemson product got a whole summer of work with the Commanders, so he might be able to get himself involved immediately for a team in desperate need of extra assistance on the edge. There is also a hint of déjà vu around this transaction from Ferrell's perspective."
"This is not the first time Ferrell has been tasked with filling the gaping void left by Mack. The Raiders spent a top-five pick on the player shortly after trading Mack to the Chicago Bears for a package that included two first-round picks. He never came close to reaching the same heights, which isn't surprising, and he was swiftly moved on after his rookie contract expire"
Clelin Ferrell joined the Washington Commanders during Adam Peters' first offseason as general manager and received a subsequent one-year deal with no guarantees after limited play. He failed to make the 53-man roster and was not retained on the practice squad, ending his time in Washington. The Los Angeles Chargers signed Ferrell after a successful workout to provide depth on the edge following Khalil Mack's placement on injured reserve with an elbow issue. Ferrell was the No. 4 pick in 2019 and previously failed to match Mack-caliber production after being drafted by the Raiders, exiting after his rookie contract.
