Redskins Hosting WR Anquan Boldin For A Visit

Update:

A source tells John Keim of ESPN that it doesn’t appear as though anything will happen between the Redskins and free agent WR Anquan Boldin in terms of an agreement.

———–

Mike Jones and Master Tesfatsion are reporting that the Redskins are hosting free agent WR Anquan Boldin for a visit on Tuesday.

This is the first reported visit for Boldin since the free agent market opened over three weeks ago, even though he’s among the best receivers still available in the free agent market.

Boldin, 35, is a former second-round pick of the Cardinals back in 2003. He spent seven years in Arizona before being traded to the Ravens in 2010. Baltimore later traded him to the 49ers where’s he’s remained for the past three seasons.

Boldin finished out his two-year, $12 million contract that included $5.5 million guaranteed and is testing the market as an unrestricted free agent.

In 2015, Boldin appeared in 14 games for the 49ers and caught 69 passes for 789 yards receiving and four touchdowns. Pro Football Focus rated him as the No. 33 overall receiver out of 119 qualifying players.

We have him featured in our Best Available Free Agents list.
