The Washington Redskins announced today that they released quarterback Colt Brennan.
Brennan spent the entire 2009 season on Injured Reserve. In 2008, he served as the Redskins’ third quarterback for all 16 games.
The Redskins selected Brennan in the sixth round (No. 186 overall) of the 2008 NFL Draft.
A Gift From Jim Zorn?
The Washington Redskins acquired Raven's quarterback John Beck in exchange for cornerback Doug Dutch.
Beck (6-2, 215) served as a backup in Baltimore last season following two years in Miami. The Dolphins drafted the former BYU standout in the second round (No. 40 overall) of the 2007 NFL Draft. Beck appeared in five games as a rookie, with four starts, accounting for all of his regular season NFL action to date. In those contests, Beck completed 60-of-107 passes for 559 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions. He also rushed nine times for 12 yards and a touchdown.
Beck was a four-year letterman and a three-year starter at BYU, where he finished his collegiate career with 885 completions on 1,418 attempts (62.4 percent) for 11,021 yards, 79 touchdowns and 34 interceptions.
Dutch, a 5-11, 205-pounder, spent the final seven games of the 2009 season on Washington’s practice squad. He originally signed last year with the Redskins as a rookie free agent out of Michigan.
A Hyattsville, Md., native, he attended Gonzaga High School in Washington, D.C.
