The Commanders cut kicker Cade York on Monday after he missed two field goals during Washington’s 37-20 loss at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during Sunday’s season opener.

York pushed a pair of kicks wide right on Sunday, one from 56 yards and the other from 47.

York’s release comes three weeks after the Commanders traded a conditional seventh-round pick to the Cleveland Browns for the second-year kicker.

Entering Sunday, York had not kicked since his rookie year with Cleveland in 2022. He made 24 of 32 field goal attempts that season after being drafted by the Browns in the fourth round.

Cleveland waived York in 2023 after a shaky training camp.

Multiple reports have said that Washington plans to sign Austin Seibert to replace York. Seibert, 27, has made 45 of 56 field goal attempts over his five-year NFL career.

The Commanders host the New York Giants (0-1) on Sunday.
