PORTLAND, Ore. – The Portland Timbers today announced that the club has waived defender Rennico Clarke.

Acquired by the club in 2015, Clarke, 22, spent two seasons (2015-16) with T2, before signing with the first team ahead of the 2017 MLS campaign.

In three seasons with the club, Clarke made 46 USL appearances (45 starts) as a central defender for T2, scoring two goals. Clarke made one first-team appearance for the Timbers, starting and recording an assist in a fourth-round U.S. Open Cup match against Seattle Sounders FC on June 13, 2017.
