Shurmur signed with Washington's practice squad Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Shurmur was unable to secure a role with the Bengals during camp after he joined the team on a futures deal in January. However, he'll provide additional depth at quarterback for Washington since Ryan Fitzpatrick (hip) is slated to miss time. While Taylor Heinicke figures to serve as the interim starter with Kyle Allen available as a backup, Shurmur will be available if the team's quarterbacks encounter additional injuries.
