FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- The New England Patriots?have traded former starting center Bryan Stork?to the Washington Redskins for a conditional seventh-round draft pick.The agreement between the teams, first reported by the NFL Network and confirmed by ESPN, came after Stork had been informed by the Patriots that they planned to release him.The Patriots also released veteran wide receiver Nate Washington?on Wednesday. That move was first reported by CSN New England and later confirmed by ESPN.?The Patriots decision to cut ties with Stork comes as a mild surprise even as he was losing his hold on the top spot of the depth chart to second-year blocker David Andrews.Stork, who was selected by the Patriots in the fourth round of the 2014 draft, played in 25 games for the team, including the playoffs, during the past two seasons (21 starts). He sustained multiple concussions in that time, opening the 2015 season on the injured reserve list because of a concussion.Its tough, said quarterback?Jimmy Garoppolo, who was picked by the Patriots in the same draft class as Stork. Its that time of year. Theres a lot of movement between teams and players and everything. Its tough to see one of your guys go like that. Thats the business, I guess.With Stork sidelined at the start of last season, Andrews, an undrafted free agent out of Georgia, started the first 10 games of the season and performed well before Stork returned as the starter.Under returning offensive line coach Dante Scarnecchia, the two entered 2016 spring practices in an open competition for the job, with Stork taking top repetitions one day and Andrews getting those reps the next. That continued into the early days of training camp, but Andrews has has a hold on the top spot since Stork was knocked out of practice on the third day due to a reported concussion and missed a week.Stork was also thrown out of a joint practice with the Chicago Bears on Aug. 16. He upset coach Bill Belichick after wildly throwing punches, which didnt connect, at Bears linebacker John Timu.When Belichick was asked about the center position Friday, he called it a good competitive situation.Washington, who has 458 career receptions in 10 seasons with the Steelers, Titans and Texans, was a longshot to make the Patriots roster out of camp. He signed a one-year, $1.065 million contract with the Patriots this offseason, but only $60,000 was guaranteed.Information from ESPNs Mike Reiss, Adam Schefter and Field Yates was used in this report.

Golf will be making a comeback to the Olympic fold after a gap of 112 years, and India are well-represented, especially in the mens section of the competition. Tournament qualification rules limited a maximum of four entrants per nation among the top 15 in the world rankings, and only two more per country from the rest (provided none of them were in the top 15), and this meant both world number 62 Anirban Lahiri and world number 211 SSP Chawrasia were virtually assured of spots in Rio even before some of the top golfers started pulling out of the event. Lahiri brings experience of having won a silver in the team event of the 2006 Asian Games in Doha, while for Chawrasia, this will be his first time representing India, though he did play for the Asian team alongside Lahiri in the EurAsia Cup earlier this year under the leadership of Jeev Milkha Singh.Aditi Ashok is the only woman to have made the cut to the top 60, and the 18-year-old is in her early days as a pro on the ladies tour.
