The Jaguars released Vedvik from their practice squad Wednesday, independent NFL journalist Aaron Wilson reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jacksonville signed linebacker Aaron Patrick to take Vedvik's spot on the practice squad. The organization's decision to move on from Vedvik implies confidence in the health and abilities of the two specialists on the 53-man roster, kicker Josh Lambo and punter Logan Cooke.

Vedvik signed with the Jaguars' practice squad Friday.
EDGE Analysis
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.

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

Vedvik secured a future contract with Washington on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Vedvik hasn't appeared in an NFL game since his first in 2019, where he missed both his field goal and extra-point attempt. Since the kicker has also proved he's an option at punter, it's unclear how exactly Washington plans on utilizing him.

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.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Washington signed Vedvik to the practice squad Friday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
The spot on the practice squad opened up following the promotion of Joshua Garnett to the active roster. The punter/kicker hybrid's only career NFL action came in one game with the Jets last season, during which he failed to convert his sole field-goal attempt.

The Panthers waived Vedvik on Saturday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

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

Vedvik was waived by the Bills on Wednesday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

While Corey Bojorquez is the incumbent punter and is the top guy on the depth chart, Vedvik will be given fair chance to compete for the spot, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports. "I know he's improving," said special teams coach Heath Farwell of Vedvik. "Nobody works harder. So he is a guy that will do whatever he can. Kaare is a guy who's really going to push Corey Bojorquez."
EDGE Analysis
Vedvik has a booming leg and can also serve as a kickoff specialist, so there's a chance he could make the team as a third kicker, even if he doesn't beat out Bokorquez. The latter was shaky at times last season, so it wouldn't be a shock if Vedvik usurps him for the role. Vedvik, a Marshall product, has been woking out diligently during the pandemic with some other Bills, namely long snapper and veteran Reid Ferguson.
