Washington Commanders Waive Quarterback Sam Hartman

The Washington Commanders have decided to waive quarterback Sam Hartman, as reported by Tom Pelissero of The Ringer. Despite this move, there is a possibility that Hartman could return to the team's practice squad.

Hartman joined the Commanders in 2024 as an undrafted free agent after a college career at Wake Forest and a season at Notre Dame. His time on the active roster has been limited, with a brief stint in 2024 when backup Marcus Mariota was injured.

During the preseason, Hartman had the chance to showcase his skills but struggled in a recent game against the Baltimore Ravens, completing nine of 14 passes for 64 yards in a 41-3 loss. He expressed optimism about the offense's potential under the new system, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and execution. Hartman's future with the team will depend on whether he clears waivers in the coming days.
