KAARE VEDVIK NEWS

Signs with Jaguars' practice squad Vedvik signed with the Jaguars' practice squad Friday.

Impact Vedvik was waived by Washington with a non-football injury designation in late January, and he failed to land with a team during training camp. However, he'll have a chance to make an impact with the practice squad and could join the active roster if Josh Lambo struggles or sustains an injury.

Waived with injury Washington waived Vedvik (undisclosed) with a non-football injury designation Thursday, according to the league's official transaction report.

Impact Vedvik inked a reserve/future contract with Washington earlier this month, but he'll now be subjected back to waivers due to an injury unrelated to football activities. He didn't suit up for any NFL action in 2020.

Signs future contract Vedvik secured a future contract with Washington on Monday.

Impact Vedvik hasn't appeared in an NFL game since his first in 2019, where he missed both his one field-goal and extra-point attempt. Since the kicker has also proven he's an option at punter, it's unclear how exactly Washington plans on utilizing him.

Could be called upon Sunday Vedvik could be called up from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the Lions if Dustin Hopkins (groin) can't play, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.

Impact Vedvik has only one appearance in the NFL under his belt, but he could get another shot in Detroit on Sunday. Hopkins is officially listed as questionable, and coach Ron Rivera has said that the decision on his availability could come down to a game-time call.

Shown door in Carolina The Panthers waived Vedvik on Saturday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The punter-kicker hybrid couldn't make it past cut day in Carolina, as the Panthers are rolling with Joey Slye at kicker and Joseph Charlton at punter. With plenty of uncertainty in 2020, Vedvik should be a practice-squad candidate who can be called upon in a pinch.

Plucked off waivers The Panthers claimed Vedvik off waivers Thursday, Myles Simmons of the team's official site reports.

Impact Vedvik has the ability to act as both a kicker and punter, but the Panthers likely are taking a look at him as the latter due to regular punter Michael Palardy tearing his ACL in the offseason. Expect Vedvik to compete with undrafted rookie Joseph Charlton for that vacancy, while also potentially getting some reps at kicker behind Joey Slye.

Let go by Buffalo Vedvik was waived by the Bills on Wednesday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Vedvik was supposed to battle incumbent punter Corey Bojorquez for the starting job, but as evidenced by this news, Vedvik failed to win the competition. The Marshall product has been known for his powerful leg but also for sometimes shaky kicking. His talent could help him latch on elsewhere, though that would seem to be more as a regular-season emergency replacement.
