• Football Team's Kevin Pierre-Louis: Cools down after strong start

  Rotowire Jan 13, 2021

  Pierre-Louis started 11 of his 13 games in 2020, recording 56 tackles (36 solo), two pass defenses, one sack and one forced fumble. Pierre-Louis opened the year in a three-down role, piling up 20 tackles on 142 snaps over the first two weeks of the season. He kept his job in Washington's base defense for most of the year, but it was Cole Holcomb who got most of the nickel work alongside Jon Bostic in the second half of the season. Among the three, only Pierre-Louis is scheduled for free agency during the upcoming offseason. Regardless of where he signs, the 29-year-old journeyman linebacker isn't likely to relive his brief moment of IDP relevance.

• Football Team's Kevin Pierre-Louis: Deemed questionable for Week 16

  Rotowire Dec 25, 2020

  Pierre-Louis (ankle) was a limited practice participant Friday and is tagged as questionable for Sunday's contest versus Carolina, John Keim of ESPN.com reports. The linebacker picked up the ankle injury during Week 14's matchup against San Francisco and missed last week's game against Seattle. After logging three limited practice sessions this week, he appears to have a fair shot of returning Sunday. If he's able to suit up, Pierre-Louis should return to his regular starting role at weakside linebacker.
