Commanders Claim CB Kyu Blu Kelly Off Waivers From Packers

The Commanders are waiving CB Danny Johnson, so the two moves appear to be connected. 

Kelly, 22, was a three-year starter at Stanford and earned second-team All-PAC 12 in his final two seasons. He was drafted by the Ravens in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft. 

He signed a four-year, $4.149 million rookie contract that included a $309,144 signing bonus. However, the Ravens waived him coming out of the preseason and he was claimed by the Seahawks. 

The Seahawks waived Kelly a few weeks ago and he was claimed again by the Packers. 

In 2023, Kelly has appeared in five games for the Seahawks but has not recorded a stat.
