Washington Commanders waived cornerback Emmanuel Forbes Jr., marking the departure of all first-round draft picks from 2019 to 2023 from their roster.
Forbes, selected as a 'difference-maker,' struggled in the NFL, featuring blown coverages and was eventually benched after a poor performance.
Despite high expectations stemming from his collegiate performance with six interceptions returned for touchdowns, Forbes failed to replicate that success in the pros.
A thumb injury sidelined Forbes following his initial start, leading the team to adjust their cornerback lineup without him, demonstrating the team's shift in strategy.
