Washington’s GM, Adam Peters, wasted no time filling the roster vacancy left by the trade of John Ridgeway III earlier this afternoon. To fill that spot, he grabbed wide receiver Noah Brown, pushed off the Houston Texans roster by virtue of an abundance of resources at the position.

Washington gets much-needed receiver help.

Brown has played six years in the league, collecting over 1,000 yards over the past two seasons in Dallas and Houston.
