Javon Leake: Waived by Lions
Leake was waived by the Lions on Monday.
Leake spent last season on Washington's practice squad, and he'll hope to earn a practice squad role somewhere again in 2021, as the 23-year-old running back is unlikely to make a roster at this point.

Javon Leake: Links up with practice squad
Leake signed with Washington's practice squad Thursday.
The Maryland product had his most recent opportunity with the Giants in training camp, but he ultimately did not show enough to carve out a spot on the team's 53-man roster or practice squad. Now provided with an opportunity for divisional rival Washington, Leake stands as a developmental RB option while Antonio Gibson, J.D. McKissic and Peyton Barber split positional duties on the active roster.
