Redskins Have Release WR Breshad Perriman.

The former first-round pick of the Baltimore Ravens was released by the Washington Redskins on Saturday, less than a week after he signed with the team.

Perriman was part of a two-receiver Tuesday for Washington, as the Redskins, in search of additional targets for Alex Smith, also added Michael Floyd to the roster.

In a related move Saturday, the Redskins promoted running back Kapri Bibbs to the active roster.

Known as a blazing-fast target, Perriman never sniffed the expectations set for him as a first-round selection of the Ravens, catching just 43 passes for 576 yards and three touchdowns while struggling with drops during his three seasons in Baltimore.

Perriman was cut by the Ravens at the end of the 2018 preseason in a move that wasnt too surprising, considering GM Ozzie Newsome publicly put the pressure on him in March during the NFL Scouting Combine.
