Update: Tress Way will hold, but not punt vs the Browns
Ron Rivera said Tress Way will play in Cleveland — but as the holder. That's why they signed Colby Wadman.

Washington Commanders punter Tress Way is dealing with some lower back tightness, but Head Coach Ron Rivera said he didn't expect it to keep him from playing in the preseason opener against the Cleveland Browns on Friday night. They tried out two punters at practice yesterday, a long with a long snapper and a pair of defensive backs.
Washington signed DB Joshua Kalu yesterday, and have reportedly also added punter Colby Wadman. He has spent time with the Raiders, Broncos, and 49ers in the NFL; and actually punter for the Broncos in 2018. He spent last year in the USFL with the Birmingham Stallions. Washington also worked out left-footed punter Michael Palardy.
The Commanders are signing P Colby Wadman, per source.
