Commanders Re-Sign Kicker Jake Moody to One-Year Deal

The move reverses earlier reporting that he would not receive a restricted free-agent tender.

Overview

  • ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reported Friday that Washington agreed to bring back Moody on a one-year contract.
  • The decision updates earlier guidance from Schultz this week that the team was not planning to tender Moody as a restricted free agent.
  • Moody was reported at 18-for-20 on field goals last season, including 2-for-2 from 50 yards or longer with a long of 56.
  • Washington signed Moody off the Bears’ practice squad on November 17 after Matt Gay missed a potential game-winning 56-yarder in Week 11 in Madrid.
  • Before joining Washington, Moody set a Bears record for a first game with four field goals, including a game-winning 38-yarder against the Commanders in Week 6.
