The Washington Redskins have been awarded wide receiver Dezmon Briscoe off waivers from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and cut wide receiver Brian Hernandez. Briscoe was a popular target on waivers as he was the subject of competing waiver claims from the Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles and the Cincinnati Bengals, according to a league source. Briscoe fell out of favor with the Buccaneers after being absent from the offseason program due to personal issues. Briscoe is a former Bengals sixth-round draft pick from Kansas. Briscoe was cut by the Bengals two years ago and then claimed by the Buccaneers. Source: Scout.com
