Galette worked out for the Rams on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
After the Redskins elected to not re-sign Galette this offseason, the linebacker contemplated retirement. However, with this workout for the Rams, it's apparent that Galette is still getting some interest from NFL teams and that he still has some interest in playing this season.

Galette announced via his personal Instagram account that he's contemplating retirement.
EDGE Analysis
After missing the 2015 and 2016 seasons to Achilles injuries, Galette showed he still has something left in the tank in 2017, cranking out 20 tackles, three sacks and a forced fumble in 16 games with Washington. The Redskins let him walk in free agency earlier this offseason, but the 30-year-old veteran claims he has three contract offers on the table and is simply taking his time deciding his future. It wouldn't be a surprise if he waited until training camp to join a team, should he decide to continue playing.

The Redskins have informed Galette he won't be re-signed for the 2018 season, The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galette spent the last three seasons in Washington but was unable to see game action until 2017 after sustaining a pair of Achilles' tears during his first two training camps with the team. The veteran linebacker played all 16 games in a rotational role for the Redskins last season, recording 20 tackles, three sacks and a forced fumble. Galette -- who turns 30 on Tuesday -- is unlikely to see much in the form of contracts with multi-year guarantees given his injury history.

Galette said last week in a radio appearance with 106.7 The Fan Washington that he doesn't expect the Redskins to re-sign him when he becomes a free agent at the start of the new league year, Scott Allen of The Washington Post reports."I haven't spoken to [the Washington front office personally," Galette said. "But speaking to my agent, Drew Rosenhaus...he just basically said they're pretty much gonna let me test free agency, because I'm pretty sure that if it was the other way around, I think they would have offered me a deal and nothing has been offered. There's nothing else left for me to believe but they want me to test free agency."
EDGE Analysis
Galette has spent each of the past three seasons with Washington, though he didn't make his team debut until 2017 after suffering season-ending Achilles' tears in back-to-back training camps. The 29-year-old was forced to settle for a part-time role upon returning to action for all 16 games last season, finishing with 20 tackles (14 solo) and three sacks. Though he has a pair of double-digit sack campaigns on his career ledger, Galette's injury history and advancing age may make it difficult for him to secure more than a one-year guaranteed commitment from a team in free agency this offseason.

Galette (hamstring) was an active participant during Wednesday's practice, Mike Jones of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galette's appearance at practice Wednesday bodes well for his availability for the season opener. The Redskins hope Galette can be a significant piece to their defensive puzzle this season, so it would not be surprising if they keep Galette limited throughout the remainder of the preseason.

Galette (hamstring) won't play in Saturday's preseason game against Green Bay, Master Tesfatsion of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galette returned to practice Wednesday in a limited fashion after missing just over a week of time due to his hamstring injury. Though he's improving, Washington likely doesn't want to risk the health of the oft-injured backup in a preseason game.

Galette (hamstring) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday, Mike Jones of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galette's status for Saturday's preseason game remains up in the air. For the most part, Galette seems to be penciled into a roster spot but a lot can change based on preseason performances. Galette's progression seems to be trending upward which is a good sign to say the least.

Galette (hamstring) won't play in Thursday's preseason opener against the Ravens, ESPN's John Keim reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Redskins are hoping Galette's hamstring issue is a minor one, especially since they haven't gotten much of a return on the player who's missed most of the past two seasons due to a pair of Achilles injuries. His next chance to taste preseason action will come Aug. 19 against the Packers.
